  2 Contact alignment (ABM)
  3 Anodic bonding (air, with alignment)
Process characteristics:
Alignment type
Optical implies front-front align.
Backside IR implies front-back align.
Manual implies no fine alignment.
Alignment type*
Optical implies front-front align. Backside IR implies front-back align. Manual implies no fine alignment.
Perform piranha clean
If there are no metal parts on any of the wafers select standard piranha clean, otherwise an organic NMP clean will be performed.
Perform piranha clean*
yes no
If there are no metal parts on any of the wafers select standard piranha clean, otherwise an organic NMP clean will be performed.
