Dear Mr. Merhaba, we have developed AuSn bumping about 8 years ago and used it mainly for optoelectronics, microwave and sensor applications and we run the bumping process for InP, GaAs and Si wafers. Please visit our homepage http://www.pb.izm.fhg.de/avt/010_groups/030_group/FFCS.html With various bump sizes on the same wafer you will find different bump shapes after reflow (if you do so). As we are an R&D institute we would be interested to share and extend our knowledge in common projects and/or to transfer the AuSn bumping and assembly technology. Please contact me for more information.
