Alex,

Having looked in detail at your device application, I believe your device
could be bonded on an Electronic Visions wafer bonding system with near
micron alignment accuracy. One of the unique features of our bonding systems
is the ability to bond substrates of different sizes (for instance a 3"
wafer to a 4" wafer), which is the case in your situation.

I will send you some information on our precision aligned substrate bonding
systems.
