Claim Text:
1. Method for bonding a first contact surface of a first substrate to a second contact surface of a second substrate, the second substrate having a reaction layer containing a second educt or a second group of educts, said method comprising: forming a reservoir in a surface layer on the first contact surface, at least partially filling the reservoir with a first educt or a first group of educts after the reservoir is formed, after the reservoir is filled with the first educt or the first group of educts, forming a prebond connection by bringing the first contact surface and the second contact surface into contact with each other, and forming a permanent bond between the first contact surface and the second contact surface, said permanent bond at least partially strengthened by a reaction of the first educt or the first group of educts with the second educt or the second group of educts contained in the reaction layer of the second substrate and by deforming at least one of the contact surfaces by the reaction of the first educt or the first group of educts with the second educt or the second group of educts.
