Popis: | Electrochemical alloying of Cu substrate through a reduction-diffusion method was investigated using ionic liquid, trimethyl-n-hexylammonium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amide, as a solvent for an electrolytic bath. The use of the ionic liquid rendered it possible to raise the processing temperature beyond 100 åC so as to form the Cu-Sn layers faster than in the case of an aqueous media. The layers obtained from Cu thin layer under potentiostatic condition were silver-gray speculum metal composed of Cu6Sn5, Cu3Sn, and Cu10Sn3 intermetallic phases, while those prepared under galvanic contact condition involved a β-Sn phase containing a trace amount of copper. The formation of each Cu-Sn phase was discussed in terms of thermodynamics of alloy formation. |
