Measuring the surface bonding energy: A comparison between the classical double-cantilever beam experiment and its nanoscale analog

Two experimental implementations of the double-cantilever beam experiment, developed to measure the bonding energy in wafer-bonded semiconductors, are compared for the first time. The comparison is carried out in two material combinations relevant to microelectronics and silicon photonics: Si on an...
