Solder joints in electronic packages undergo thermo-mechanical cycling, resulting in nucleation of micro-cracks, especially at the solder/bond-pad interface, which may lead to fracture of the joints. The fracture toughness of a solder joint depends o

When dropped, electronic packages often undergo failure by propagation of an interfacial crack in solder joints under a combination of tensile and shear loading. Hence, it is crucial to understand and predict the fracture behavior of solder joints un

Cu particle-containing In-matrix composites for thermal interface material (TIM) applications were prepared via liquid phase sintering, following chemical modification of the Cu–In interfaces. The optimized composite TIM possessed 1.5 times the the

A methodology to construct fracture mechanism maps for Sn-3.8%Ag-0.7%Cu (SAC387) solder joints attached to Cu substrates has been developed. The map, which delineates the operative mechanisms of fracture along with corresponding joint fracture toughn

This study reports on the processing and characterization of composite solders produced by liquid phase sintering, which comprise a high-melting phase such as Cu embedded in a matrix of a low-melting phase such as In. These solders combine higher ele

The conversion to lead-free solder alloys and increasing dynamic warpage due to the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch and thinner microelectronic packaging technology has resulted in a significant increase in the risk of solder joint de

The thermal fatigue resistance of Sn-rich solder joints is dependent on the initial microstructure and damage evolution during thermal cycling. In this study, we have investigated the thermal fatigue behavior of single-lap-shear Sn-rich solder/Cu joi

Solders are used as interconnect materials in microelectronic packaging. Traditionally, eutectic and near-eutectic Pb-Sn solder alloys have been used. Due to the toxic nature of lead, environmentally-benign Sn-rich (Pb-free) solders are being develop

Microstructure plays a critical role in the mechanical behavior of Sn-rich solder alloys. A unified mechanistic understanding of creep in Sn-rich solder alloys, at various microstructural length scales, is missing. Part I of this study focused on mic

We report on the nature of the orientation of Ag3Sn and the Ag3Sn/Sn interface in Sn-3.5Ag solder. Orientation imaging microscopy (OIM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the orientation and nature of the interface,
