Dear Leo, My samples are 0.5mmx1mm with nearly 1/3 of bond area. You may call me if you wish. We also done full wafer scale bonding for 4 inch wafers. With our work pressure play a role but not the bonding time.

I wonder how much bonding area you had on the sample. I guess the pressure is really important.
