Abstract

The adhesion strength of and the residual stress in pyromellitic dianhydride-4,4'-oxydianiline polyimide (PMDA-ODA PI)/y-APS/silicon wafer joints were investigated for various coating thicknesses of γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (γ-APS). The largest adhesion strength (780 N/m) was observed in the joint with 11 nm of γ-APS coating thickness. The residual stress was measured by a He-Ne laser thin film stress analyzer and calculated by a finite element analysis. The residual bending stresses obtained by finite element calculations agreed very well with the experimental results. Residual stress increased with increasing γ-APS coating thickness.
