Adhesives wafer bonding
Nicolas Duarte

Whenever I have to mount a smaller wafer/die to a wafer I always just
use photoresist (Shipley 1827 in my case).  Just a small drop in the
center and press the wafers together (if you are going into vacuum
you want to do them rough side together to reduce the number of
bubbles).  Soft bake at 100deg C for 5 min to make sure it hardens.

When you are done just put on a hotplate at 200degC for 1-5 min and
the wafers should easily separate (either the PR becomes brittle and
cracks or it reflows and becomes liquid again, I have seen both
happen).  Acetone, Pirahna etch, or oxygen plasma to clean the
backside later if you need.
