Hi, Rob,
We have EVG501 wafer bonder and EVG 810 plasma activation tools plus a third vender wafer cleaning tool and another bonding strength test tool.
(Listed in our cleanroom equipment website: https://cnm2.ucdavis.edu/equipment ).
We are very happy with the tools, and the service & support from EVG have been great.
We purchased them in 2016 after a few years of demo testing at their facilities (paid fees to get custom bonding done and in some cases sent my students there for various testing).
At the time of purchase, I carefully looked into various other vendors? tools, and we have been happy with our decision.
My students have been doing hydrophilic bonding between dissimilar materials (GaAs-Si, AlGaAs-Si, InP-Si, LiNbO3-Si) as well as Si-Si and SiO2-SiO2. Some others have done anodic bonding (I try to avoid sodium for my projects so I don?t do anodic bonding). I don?t allow polymers in the wafer bonding chamber, so no polymer bonding, but we do transfer printing with and without resin in another EVG tool.
Let me know if you need more info.
Best,
-Ben
