Abstract
The effect of several surface treatments such as chemical-mechanical polishing or plasma activation applied to deposited silicon oxide layer surfaces prior to direct bonding has been investigated. It is shown that these treatments have a direct impact on surface and near subsurface OH bond densities which greatly participate in bonding energy changes. Better understanding of mechanism is proposed even if some conditions still deserve more investigation.
