Abstract
A wafer bonding process using low-temperature-grown (LTG) compound semiconductor as the bonding agent has been demonstrated. The optical and electrical properties of bonded samples have been characterized. This method provides several advantages, including high optical transparent, orientation-free, and low bonding temperature, which are desirable for high-brightness LED applications.
