Abstract:
A wafer bonding method includes placing a first wafer on a first bonding framework including a plurality of outlet holes around a periphery of the first bonding framework. A second wafer is placed on a second bonding framework that includes a plurality of inlet holes around a periphery of the second bonding framework. The first bonding framework is in overlapping relation to the second bonding framework such that a gap exist between the first wafer and the second wafer. A gas stream is circulated through the gap between the first wafer and the second wafer entering the gap through one or more of the plurality of inlet holes and exiting the gap through one or more of the plurality of outlet holes. The gas stream replaces any existing ambient moisture from the gap between the first wafer and the second wafer.

Claim (Index 2):
The wafer bonding structure of  claim 1 , wherein the flow control device closes the portion of the plurality of holes.
