A bonding joint between Cu metallization and evaporated In/Sn composite solder is produced at a temperature lower than 200°C
in air. The effects of bonding temperature and duration on the interfacial bonding strength are studied herein. Cross sections
of bonding joints processed at different bonding conditions were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optimal
condition, i.e., bonding temperature of 180°C for 20 min, was chosen because it gave rise to the highest average bonding strength
of 6.5 MPa, and a uniform bonding interface with minimum voids or cracks. Good bond formation was also evidenced by scanning
acoustic imaging. For bonding couples of patterned dies, a helium leak rate of 5.8 × 10−9 atm cc/s was measured, indicating a hermetic seal. The interfacial reaction between Cu and In/Sn was also studied. Intermetallic
compounds (IMCs) such as AuIn2, Cu6Sn5, and Cu11In9 were detected by means of x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) accompanied by energy-dispersive
x-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. Chemical composition analysis also revealed that solder interlayers, Sn, and In were completely
converted into IMCs by reaction with Cu. All the IMCs formed in the joints have remelting temperatures above 300°C according
to the Cu-In, Cu-Sn, and Au-In phase diagrams. Therefore, the joint is able to sustain high service temperatures due to the
presence of these IMCs. 相似文献

The intermetallic compounds formed during the reflow and aging of Sn-20In-2.8Ag ball-grid-array (BGA) packages are investigated.
After reflow, a large number of cubic-shaped AuIn2 intermetallics accompanied by Ag2In precipitates appear in the solder matrix, while a Ni(Sn0.72Ni0.28)2 intermetallic layer is formed at the solder/pad interface. With further aging at 100°C, many voids can be observed in the
solder matrix and at the solder/pad interface. The continuous distribution of voids at the interface of specimens after prolonged
aging at 100°C causes their bonding strength to decrease from 5.03 N (as reflowed) to about 3.50 N. Aging at 150°C induces
many column-shaped (Cu0.74Ni0.26)6(Sn0.92In0.08)5 intermetallic compounds to grow rapidly and expand from the solder/pad interface into the solder matrix. The high microhardness
of these intermetallic columns causes the bonding strength of the Sn-20In-2.8Ag BGA solder joints to increase to 5.68 N after
aging at 150°C for 500 h. 相似文献

Elemental (X) additions to Sn-3.5Ag-0.95Cu (SAC3595) solder were developed with minimal (<0.25 wt.%) concentration to avoid
pro-eutectic Ag3Sn blades by reducing undercooling (ΔT) and to eliminate thermal-aging-induced embrittlement. Calorimetry and microstructure results on simple Cu/Cu joints identified
0.21Zn, 0.10Mn, and 0.05Al as sufficient to reduce undercooling below that for SAC3595 and to eliminate Ag3Sn blades. A 211°C melting onset for the X = Mn alloys also suggested the discovery of a new quaternary eutectic. Shear testing
and microstructure analysis of larger joints showed that 0.05Al and 0.21Zn additions resulted in reduced as-soldered strength
(30 MPa), like Sn-0.95Cu, but all joints showed ductile failure at about 30 MPa after 1000 h at 150°C. 相似文献

The interfacial reactions between liquid In and Cu substrates at temperatures ranging from 175°C to 400°C are investigated
for the applications in bonding recycled sputtering targets to their backing plates. Experimental results show that a scallop-shaped
Cu16In9 intermetallic compound is found at the Cu/In interface after solder reactions at temperatures above 300°C. A double-layer
structure of intermetallic compounds containing scallop-shaped Cu11In9 and continuous CuIn is observed after the Cu/In interfacial reaction at temperatures below 300°C. The growth of all these
intermetallic compounds follows the parabolic law, which implies that the growth is diffusion-controlled. The activation energies
for the growth of Cu16In9, Cu11In9, and CuIn intermetallic compounds calculated from the Arrhenius plot of growth reaction constants are 59.5, 16.9, and 23.5
kJ/mole, respectively. 相似文献

A bonding method utilizing redox reactions of metallic oxide microparticles achieves metal-to-metal bonding in air, which can be alternative to lead-rich high-melting point solder. However, it is known that the degree of the reduction of metallic oxide microparticles have an influence on the joint strength using this bonding method. In this paper, the reduction behavior of CuO paste and its effect on Cu-to-Cu joints were investigated through simultaneous microstructure-related x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry measurements. The CuO microparticles in the paste were gradually reduced to submicron Cu2O particles at 210–250°C. Subsequently, Cu nanoparticles were generated instantaneously at 300–315°C. There was a marked difference in the strengths of the joints formed at 300°C and 350°C. Thus, the Cu nanoparticles play a critical role in sintering-based bonding using CuO paste. Furthermore, once the Cu nanoparticles have formed, the joint strength increases with higher bonding temperature (from 350°C to 500°C) and pressure (5–15 MPa), which can exceed the strength of Pb-5Sn solder at higher temperature and pressure. 相似文献

This paper gives an insight into high cycle fatigue (HCF) behaviour of a Pb-free solder alloy in the region between 104 up to 109 fatigue cycles using fatigue specimen. By means of a local stress approach, the method can be translated into solder joint fatigue evaluation in an application. The effect of temperatures (35 °C, 80 °C, 125 °C) on the fatigue property of Pb-free solder alloy is considered in this work to understand the possible fracture mechanisms and micro structural changes in a solder alloy at elevated temperature. Experiments are performed for different interaction factors under mean stresses (R = 0, − 1, − 3), stress concentration (notched, un-notched) and surface roughness. SN (stress-life) diagrams presented in this work will compare the fatigue performance of Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu solder alloy for different conditions. Furthermore, mathematical fatigue model based on FKM guideline (in German “Fachkuratorium Maschinenbau) is extracted out of the experiments under all these external effects. The models can be exported later for lifetime evaluation purposes on applications. The paper thereby proposes the use of FKM guideline in the field of microelectronics. 相似文献

A fluxless process of bonding large silicon chips to ceramic packages has been developed using a Au-Sn eutectic solder. The
solder was initially electroplated in the form of a Au/Sn/Au multilayer structure on a ceramic package and reflowed at 430°C
for 10 min to achieve a uniform eutectic 80Au-20Sn composition. A 9 mm × 9 mm silicon chip deposited with Cr/Au dual layers
was then bonded to the ceramic package at 320°C for 3 min. The reflow and bonding processes were performed in a 50-mTorr vacuum
to suppress oxidation. Therefore, no flux was used. Even without any flux, high-quality joints were produced. Microstructure
and composition of the joints were studied using scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive x-ray spectro- scopy.
Scanning acoustic microscopy was used to verify the joint quality over the entire bonding area. To employ the x-ray diffraction
method, samples were made by reflowing the Au/Sn/Au structure plated on a package. This was followed by a bonding process,
without a Si chip, so that x-rays could scan the solder surface. Joints exhibited a typical eutectic structure and consisted
of (Au,Ni)Sn and (Au,Ni)5Sn phases. This novel fluxless bonding method can be applied to packaging of a variety of devices on ceramic packages. Its
fluxless nature is particularly valuable for packaging devices that cannot be exposed to flux such as sensors, optical devices,
medical devices, and laser diodes. 相似文献

This study investigates the interfacial reactions between Sn-3.0wt.% Ag-0.5wt.%Cu (SAC) and Sn-0.7wt.%Cu (SC) on In/Ni/Cu
multilayer substrates using the solid–liquid interdiffusion bonding technique. Samples were reflowed first at 160°C, 180°C,
and 200°C for various periods, and then aged at 100°C for 100 h to 500 h. The scalloped Cu6Sn5 phase was formed at the SAC/In/Ni/Cu and SC/In/Ni/Cu interfaces. When the reflowing temperatures were 160°C and 180°C, a
ternary Ni-In-Sn intermetallic compound (IMC) was formed when the samples were further aged at 100°C. This ternary Ni-In-Sn
IMC could be the binary Ni3Sn4 phase with extensive Cu and In solubilities, or the ternary Sn-In-Ni compound with Cu solubility, or even a quaternary compound.
As the reflow temperature was increased to 200°C, only one Cu6Sn5 phase was formed at the solder/substrate interface with the heat treatment at 100°C for 500 h. Mechanical test results indicated
that the formation of the Ni-In-Sn ternary IMC weakened the mechanical strength of the solder joints. Furthermore, the solid–liquid
interdiffusion (SLID) technique in this work effectively reduced the reflow temperature. 相似文献

The interfacial reaction between two prototype multicomponent lead-free solders, Sn-3.4Ag-1Bi-0.7Cu-4In and Sn-3.4Ag-3Bi-0.7Cu-4In
(mass%), and Ag, Cu, Ni, and Pd substrates are studied at 250°C and 150°C. The microstructural characterization of the solder
bumps is carried out by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive x-ray analysis. Ambient temperature,
isotropic elastic properties (bulk, shear, and Young’s moduli and Poisson’s ratio) of these solders along with eutectic Sn-Ag,
Sn-Bi, and Sn-Zn solders are measured. The isotropic elastic moduli of multicomponent solders are very similar to the eutectic
Sn-Ag solder. The measured solubility of the base metal in liquid solders at 250°C agrees very well with the solubility limits
reported in assessed Sn-X (X=Ag, Cu, Ni, Pd) phase diagrams. The measured contact angles were generally less than 15° on Cu
and Pd substrates, while they were between 25° and 30° on Ag and Ni substrates. The observed intermediate phases in Ag/solder
couples were Ag3Sn after reflow at 250°C and Ag3Sn and ζ (Ag-Sn) after solid-state aging at 150°C. In Cu/solder and Ni/solder couples, the interfacial phases were Cu6Sn5 and (Cu,Ni)6Sn5, respectively. In Pd/solder couples, only PdSn4 after 60-sec reflow, while both PdSn4 and PdSn3 after 300-sec reflow, were observed. 相似文献

A highly reliable conductive adhesive obtained by transient liquid‐phase sintering (TLPS) technologies is studied for use in high‐power device packaging. TLPS involves the low‐temperature reaction of a low‐melting metal or alloy with a high‐melting metal or alloy to form a reacted metal matrix. For a TLPS material (consisting of Ag‐coated Cu, a Sn96.5‐Ag3.0‐Cu0.5 solder, and a volatile fluxing resin) used herein, the melting temperature of the metal matrix exceeds the bonding temperature. After bonding of the TLPS material, a unique melting peak of TLPS is observed at 356 °C, consistent with the transient behavior of Ag3Sn + Cu6Sn5 → liquid + Cu3Sn reported by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The TLPS material shows superior thermal conductivity as compared with other commercially available Ag pastes under the same specimen preparation conditions. In conclusion, the TLPS material can be a promising candidate for a highly reliable conductive adhesive in power device packaging because remelting of the SAC305 solder, which is widely used in conventional power modules, is not observed. 相似文献

We chose Sn−2.8Ag−20In and Sn−10Bi−10In (numbers are in weight percentages unless specified otherwise) as Pb-free solder materials
for intermediate-step soldering. We then investigated how the two solders reacted with the under bump metallurgy (UBM) of
Au/Ni (Au: 1.5 μm and Ni: 3 μm) at 210°C, 220°C, 230°C, and 240°C for up to 4 min. All, of the Au UBM was dissolved into the
solder matrix as soon as the interfacial reaction started. The reaction formed Au(In, Sn)2 in the case of SnAgIn, and it formed Au(Sn, In)4 and Au(In, Sn)2 in the case of SnBiIn. The formation mechanism of the intermetallic phases is explained thermodynamically. The exposed Ni
layer reacted with the solder and formed Ni28Sn55In17 in case of SnAgIn, and formed Ni3(Sn, In)4 in case of SnBiIn, at the solder joint interface. Under the same soldering conditions, the Ni3(Sn,In)4 layer in the SnBiIn/UBM is thicker than the Ni28Sn55In17 layer in the SnAgIn/UBM. Because of the thicker intermetallic compound layer, the SnBiIn solder joint has weaker shear strength
than the SnAgIn solder joint. 相似文献

We have studied the microstructure of the Sn-9Zn/Cu joint in soldering at temperatures ranging from 230°C to 270°C to understand
the growth of the mechanism of intermetallic compound (IMC) formation. At the interface between the Sn-9Zn solder and Cu,
the results show a scallop-type ε-CuZn4 and a layer-type γ-Cu5Zn8, which grow at the interface between the Sn-9Zn solder and Cu. The activation energy of scallop-type ε-CuZn4 is 31 kJ/mol, and the growth is controlled by ripening. The activation energy of layer-type γ-Cu5Zn8 is 26 kJ/mol, and the growth is controlled by the diffusion of Cu and Zn. Furthermore, in the molten Sn-9Zn solder, the results
show η-CuZn grains formed in the molten Sn-9Zn solder at 230°C. When the soldering temperature increases to 250°C and 270°C,
the phase of IMCs is ε-CuZn4. 相似文献

The interfacial reactions between liquid In-49Sn solder and Ni substrates at temperatures ranging from 150°C to 450°C for
15 min to 240 min have been investigated. The intermetallic compounds formed at the In-49Sn/Ni interfaces are identified to
be a ternary Ni33In20Sn47 phase using electron-probe microanalysis (EPMA) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. These interfacial intermetallics grow
with increasing reaction time by a diffusion-controlled mechanism. The activation energy calculated from the Arrhenius plot
of reaction constants is 56.57 kJ/mol. 相似文献

Joule Heating Enhanced Phase Coarsening in Sn37Pb and Sn3.5Ag0.5Cu Solder Joints during Current Stressing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper investigated the effect of Joule heating on the phase coarsening in Sn37Pb and Sn3.5Ag0.5Cu ball grid array (BGA)
solder joints stressed at −5°C and 125°C with a 6.0 × 102 A/cm2 electric current. The phase growth under current stressing was also compared with those under aging at 125°C. It was found
that the current stressing produced a substantial Joule heating in the solder joints and conductive traces. Hence, the solder
joints underwent a considerable temperature rise by 30–35°C when stressed at −5°C and 125°C in this study. Coarsening of Pb-rich
and Ag-rich phases was confirmed to be accelerated by the current stressing as a result of enhanced diffusion at elevated
temperature and atomic stimulation due to numerous collisions between electrons and atoms. Different controlling kinetics
were suggested for the cases stressed or aged at different temperatures. 相似文献

A new lead free alloy, Sn-6Bi-2Ag-0.5Cu, has been developed by mechanical alloying and has great potential as a lead-free
solder system. Initial trials on the manufacture of solder joints with this alloy revealed that a high quality bond with copper
could be formed. Its melting range of 193.87°C to 209.88°C is slightly higher than that of eutectic tin-lead solder. Examination
of the microstructure of the as-soldered joints revealed that it mainly consists of small bismuth (1 μm to 2 μm) and Ag3Sn (1 μm) particles finely dispersed in a nearly pure tin matrix with a small amount of η-Cu6Sn5 particles. The Cu-Sn intermetallic compound (IMC) layer formed at solder-copper interface is the η-Cu6Sn5 phase with grain size of 2 μm. The shear strength of the solder joint is higher than that of Sn-37Pb or Sn-3.5Ag. Under shear
loading, fracture occurred at IMC layer-solder interface as well as in the bulk of solder. 相似文献

In this study, solid-state interfacial reactions between Ag and Sn-Zn alloys with varying Zn content (0.1 wt.% to 9 wt.%) were investigated at 170°C. The reaction couples were prepared by electroplating Ag on the Sn-Zn alloy to avoid dissolution of Ag into the molten solder during soldering. The Zn content greatly influenced the reaction products and the interfacial microstructures. When the Zn content was less than 4 wt.%, Ag3Sn and AgZn layers were simultaneously formed. Notably, Zn could actively diffuse through the Ag3Sn layer and react with Ag to form the AgZn phase. With the proceeding reaction, small α-Ag particulates were produced within the AgZn phase. With 9 wt.% Zn, the dominant reactions formed Ag5Zn8 and AgZn layers. The interfacial microstructure evolved significantly with reaction time. Interface instability due to Zn depletion in the solder resulted in massive spalling of the Ag5Zn8 layer. The Ag3Sn phase was then produced next to the AgZn layer. Moreover, another reaction couple, Sn-9 wt.%Zn/Sn(15 μm)/Ag, was prepared, in which fast interdiffusion between Zn and Ag across the Sn layer was demonstrated due to the strong chemical affinity of Zn. 相似文献

A (Pb, Sn)Te thermoelectric element plated with a Ni barrier layer and a Ag reaction layer has been joined with a Cu electrode coated with Ag and Sn thin films using a solid–liquid interdiffusion bonding method. This method allows the interfacial reaction between Ag and Sn such that Ag3Sn intermetallic compounds form at low temperature and are stable at high temperature. In this study, the bonding strength was about 6.6 MPa, and the specimens fractured along the interface between the (Pb, Sn)Te thermoelectric element and the Ni barrier layer. Pre-electroplating a film of Sn with a thickness of about 1 μm on the thermoelectric element and pre-heating at 250°C for 3 min ensures the adhesion between the thermoelectric material and the Ni barrier layer. The bonding strength is thus increased to a maximal value of 12.2 MPa, and most of the fractures occur inside the thermoelectric material. During the bonding process, not only the Ag3Sn intermetallics but also Cu6Sn5 forms at the Ag3Sn/Cu interface, which transforms into Cu3Sn with increases in the bonding temperature or bonding time. 相似文献

A Study on the Thermal Reliability of Cu/SnAg Double-Bump Flip-Chip Assemblies on Organic Substrates
Ho-Young Son Gi-Jo Jung Byung-Jin Park Kyung-Wook Paik 《Journal of Electronic Materials》2008,37(12):1832-1842
The Cu/SnAg double-bump structure is a promising candidate for fine-pitch flip-chip applications. In this study, the interfacial
reactions of Cu (60 μm)/SnAg (20 μm) double-bump flip chip assemblies with a 100 μm pitch were investigated. Two types of thermal treatments, multiple reflows and thermal aging, were performed to evaluate
the thermal reliability of Cu/SnAg flip-chip assemblies on organic printed circuit boards (PCBs). After these thermal treatments,
the resulting intermetallic compounds (IMCs) were identified with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the contact resistance
was measured using a daisy-chain and a four-point Kelvin structure. Several types of intermetallic compounds form at the Cu
column/SnAg solder interface and the SnAg solder/Ni pad interface. In the case of flip-chip samples reflowed at 250°C and
280°C, Cu6Sn5 and (Cu, Ni)6Sn5 IMCs were found at the Cu/SnAg and SnAg/Ni interfaces, respectively. In addition, an abnormal Ag3Sn phase was detected inside the SnAg solder. However, no changes were found in the electrical contact resistance in spite
of severe IMC formation in the SnAg solder after five reflows. In thermally aged flip-chip samples, Cu6Sn5 and Cu3Sn IMCs were found at the Cu/SnAg interface, and (Cu, Ni)6Sn5 IMCs were found at the SnAg/Ni interface. However, Ag3Sn IMCs were not observed, even for longer aging times and higher temperatures. The growth of Cu3Sn IMCs at the Cu/SnAg interface was found to lead to the formation of Kirkendall voids inside the Cu3Sn IMCs and linked voids within the Cu3Sn/Cu column interfaces. These voids became more evident when the aging time and temperature increased. The contact resistance
was found to be nearly unchanged after 2000 h at 125°C, but increases slightly at 150°C, and a number of Cu/SnAg joints failed
after 2000 h. This failure was caused by a reduction in the contact area due to the formation of Kirkendall and linked voids
at the Cu column/Cu3Sn IMC interface. 相似文献

The electromigration behavior of a Sn-3 wt.%Ag-0.5 wt.%Cu-3 wt.%Bi solder stripe between two Cu electrodes under current stressing
at various densities has been investigated for a current stressing time of 72 h and a temperature of 120°C. After current
stressing at a density of 1.0 × 104 A/cm2, the solder matrix exhibited a slight microstructural change as well as formation of a distributed Cu6Sn5 phase near the anode-side solder/Cu interface. Upon increasing the current density to 3.9 × 104 A/cm2 and 5.0 × 104 A/cm2, a high density of distributed Cu6Sn5 phase was formed across the entire solder stripe, resulting in pronounced microstructural change of the solder. Hillocks
were also formed near the anode-side interface due to accumulation of a Sn-rich phase, a Bi-rich phase, and a distributed
Cu6Sn5 phase, while voids were formed in the solder matrix and at the opposite cathode side. The mechanisms of formation of the
distributed Cu6Sn5 phase and migration of Bi and Sn are discussed. 相似文献

The intermetallic compounds formed after reflow and burn-in testing of a Sn-20In-0.8Cu solder ball grid array (BGA) package
are investigated. Along with the formation of the Cu6(Sn0.78In0.22)5 precipitates (IM1) in the solder matrix, scallop-shaped intermetallic compounds (IM2) with a compositional mixture of Cu6(Sn0.87In0.13)5 and Ni3(Sn0.87In0.13)4 appear at the interfaces between the solder balls and Au/Ni/Cu pads. A significant number of intermetallic particles (IM3),
with a composition of (Au0.80Cu0.20)(In0.33Sn0.67)2, can also be found in the solder matrix. After aging at 115°C for 750 h, an additional intermetallic compound layer (IM4)
with a composition of (Ni0.91Cu0.09)3(Sn0.77In0.23)2 is formed at the interface between IM2 and the Ni layer. The ball shear strength of the Sn-20In-0.8Cu BGA solder after reflow
is 4.5 N and will rise to maximum values after aging at 75°C and 115°C for 100 h. With a further increase of the aging time
at both temperatures, the joint strengths exhibit a tendency to decline linearly at about 1.7×10−3 N/h. 相似文献
