Because of the high homologous operation temperature of solders used in electronic devices, time and temperature dependent
relaxation and creep processes affect their mechanical behavior. In this paper, two eutectic lead-free solders (96.5Sn-3.5Ag
and 91Sn-9Zn) are investigated for their creep and stress relaxation behavior. The creep tests were done in load-control with
initial stresses in the range of 10-22 MPa at two temperatures, 25 and 80°C. The stress relaxation tests were performed under
constant-strain conditions with strains in the range of 0.3-2.4% and at 25 and 80°C. Since creep/relaxation processes are
active even during monotonie tensile tests at ambient temperatures, stress-strain curves at different temperatures and strain
rates provide insight into these processes. Activation energies obtained from the monotonic tensile, stress relaxation, and
creep tests are compared and discussed in light of the governing mechanisms. These data along with creep exponents, strain
rate sensitivities and damage mechanisms are useful for aiding the modeling of solder interconnects for reliability and lifetime
prediction. Constitutive modeling for creep and stress relaxation behavior was done using a formulation based on unified creep
plasticity theory which has been previously employed in the modeling of high temperature superalloys with satisfactory results. 相似文献

The creep behavior and hardness of Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu solder were studied using Berkovich depth-sensing indentation at temperatures
of 25°C to 125°C. Assuming a power-law relationship between the creep strain rate and stress, an activation energy of 40 kJ/mol
and stress exponents of 7.4, 5.5, and 3.7 at 25°C, 75°C, and 125°C, respectively, were obtained. The results revealed that,
with increasing temperature, the creep penetration and steady-state creep strain rate increased whereas the stress exponent
decreased. The stress exponent and activation energy results also suggested that the creep mechanism is dislocation climb,
assisted by diffusion through dislocation cores in Sn. Furthermore, the hardness results exhibited a decreasing trend with
increasing temperature, which is attributed to softening at high temperature. 相似文献

The Sn-20In-2.8Ag solder alloy is a potential lead-free solder for replacing the traditional Sn-Pb solders. In this study,
the mechanical properties of the bulk material are reported by tensile test at various strain rates and temperatures. The
Sn-20In-2.8Ag solder possessed a solidus and liquidus between 170.8°C and 195.5°C. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and
elongation were 59.3 MPa and 50.2% at a strain rate of 10−3 s−1 at room temperature. Moreover, the UTS of this alloy decreased, but its elongation increased, with increasing testing temperature.
Stress exponents of Sn-20In-2.8Ag alloy varied from 6.5 at room temperature to 4 at 100°C, and the activation energy for creep
was 51.0 kJ/mol at the higher temperature range from 50°C to 100°C. The typical intergranular creep fracture mode was observed
in Sn-20In-2.8Ag solder during tensile creep deformation. 相似文献

Creep behavior of cast lead-free Sn-5%Sb solder in unhomogenized and homogenized conditions was investigated by long time
Vickers indentation testing under a constant load of 15 N and at temperatures in the range 321–405 K. Based on the steady-state
power law creep relationship, the stress exponents were found for both conditions of the material. The creep behavior in the
unhomogenized condition can be divided into two stress regimes, with a change from the low-stress regime to the high-stress
regime occurring around 11.7 × 10−4 < (H
V
/E) < 18 × 10−4. The low stress regime activation energy of 54.2 kJ mol−1, which is close to 61.2 kJ mol−1 for dislocation pipe diffusion in the Sn, and stress exponents in the range 5.0–3.5 suggest that the operative creep mechanism
is dislocation viscous glide. This behavior is in contrast to the high stress regime in which the average values of n = 11.5 and Q = 112.1 kJ mol−1 imply that dislocation creep is the dominant deformation mechanism. Homogenization of the cast material resulted in a rather
coarse recrystallized microstructure with stress exponents in the range 12.5–5.7 and activation energy of 64.0 kJ mol−1 over the whole ranges of temperature and stress studied, which are indicative of a dislocation creep mechanism. 相似文献

Creep behavior of the ternary Sn-5Sb-1.5Ag and Sn-5Sb-1.5Bi alloys was studied by indentation testing at 298 and 370 K, and compared to that of the binary Sn-5Sb base alloy. Among all tested materials, as indicated by their minimum creep rates, Sn-5Sb-1.5Bi showed the highest creep resistance followed by Sn-5Sb-1.5Ag and Sn-5Sb. The superiority of the Bi-containing alloy is mainly due to the microstructural refinement and solid solution hardening effects of Bi in the Sn matrix, while the improvement in the creep resistance of the Ag-containing alloy is caused by the formation of spherical and rod-shaped Ag3Sn particles. The stress exponent values in the range 11.0–12.2 are close to those determined by tensile and impression creep testing of the same alloys reported in the literature. These high stress exponents together with the activation energies of 58–70 kJ/mol may suggest that the dominant creep mechanism is dislocation creep. 相似文献

For the design of high-density electronic packages, finite element method (FEM) analyses to evaluate strength reliabilities of solder joints should be conducted by employing the material parameters which can precisely reflect the creep properties of solder joints in actual electronic equipment. To obtain accurate results of the structural analyses of the solder joints, a method to evaluate the steady-state creep deformation in situ must be developed. The indentation creep test is an effective method to evaluate the creep properties of the solder joints in situ; however, the creep properties obtained by this method do not give the same results as those obtained by tensile creep tests using bulk specimens. In this paper, the indentation creep test at 1 N loading for 9,000 s duration was experimentally conducted to confirm that the steady-state creep deformation obtained by the indentation creep test did not coincide with that by the tensile creep tests using bulk specimens. To identify the reason, the indentation creep simulation was conducted by FEM analysis. As a result, it was found that the reference area used to obtain the creep strain from the indentation creep test should be modified. A method to obtain the new reference area is proposed from comparisons of experiments with simulations. Finally, this paper shows that the creep properties obtained by the indentation creep test using the new reference area coincided with those obtained by tensile creep tests using bulk specimens. 相似文献

Creep data for a eutectic tin-silver alloy at temperatures between 298 K and 398 K have been analyzed using the modified theta-projection
concept, instead of the steady-state creep constitutive equation in the following formula: ɛcr=A {1−exp(−αt)}+B {exp(αt)−1}, where A, B, and α are constants to be experimentally determined. The equation describes well
the creep curves of the eutectic tin-silver alloy up to the tertiary stage. All constants exhibited power law relationships
with the applied stress. The rate constant, α, has a high stress exponent, which is attributed to dispersion strengthening.
The rate constant a and the strain factor B only showed temperature dependence, while the strain factor A was independent
of temperature. The activation energy for α was 65 kJ/mol at high stresses and 90 kJ/mol at low stresses. The energies suggest
that the dislocation pipe diffusion and the lattice diffusion are predominant at high stresses and low stresses, respectively. 相似文献

The work reported here concerns the creep of pure Sn solder joints with Cu metallization (Cu||Sn||Cu). Steady-state creep tests in shear are combined with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis of the evolution of the microstructure during creep to clarify the deformation mechanism and the nature of the microstructural evolution. The creep behavior of the joint changes significantly with temperature. At low temperature (65°C), two distinct creep mechanisms are observed. Low-stress creep is apparently dominated by grain boundary sliding, as evidenced by the low stress exponent (n ≈ 4), low activation energy (Q ≈ 42 kJ/mole), and significant grain rotation during creep. High-stress creep is dominated by bulk deformation processes, evidenced by a high stress exponent (n ≈ 9), an activation energy like that for bulk diffusion (Q ≈ 70 kJ/mole), and a relatively fixed microstructure. At high temperature all aspects of its behavior are consistent with deformation by bulk creep mechanisms; the stress exponent and activation energy are high (n ≈ 5 to 7, Q ≈ 96 kJ/mole), and despite significant grain coarsening, the microstructure retains (and strengthens) a fixed [001] texture. The results suggest that a “segmented” constitutive equation of Dorn type is most suitable for the low-temperature behavior, while a “hyperbolic” constitutive equation may be preferable at high temperature. 相似文献

This study examines the microstructure and impression creep behavior of the high-temperature Zn-20 wt.%Sn, Zn-30 wt.%Sn, and
Zn-40 wt.%Sn solders under constant punch stress in the range of 25 MPa to 300 MPa and at temperatures in the range of 298 K
to 425 K. Analysis of the data showed that, for all loads and temperatures, the Zn-20Sn alloy had the lowest creep rates,
and thus the highest creep resistance, among all materials tested. This is attributed to the lower volume fraction of the
soft Sn-rich phase with a continuous morphology which acts as the matrix encompassing the harder Zn phase. The stress exponents
and activation energies were in the range of 4.0 to 6.1 and 40.0 kJ mol−1 to 45.3 kJ mol−1, respectively. Based on the obtained stress exponents and activation energy data, it is proposed that dislocation climb is
the controlling creep mechanism. However, the observed decreasing trend of creep activation energy with stress suggests that
two parallel mechanisms of lattice-diffusion-controlled and pipe-diffusion-controlled dislocation climb are competing. Dislocation
climb controlled by dislocation pipe diffusion is the controlling mechanism at high stresses, whereas climb of edge dislocations
is the controlling mechanism at low stresses. 相似文献

Creep behavior of the lead-free Sn-5%Sb solder alloy was studied by long-time Vickers indentation testing at room temperature.
Four different conditions of the material were examined. These were unhomogenized cast (UC), homogenized cast (HC), unhomogenized
wrought (UW), and homogenized wrought (HW) conditions. Based on the steady-state power-law creep relationship, the stress
exponents were determined through different methods of analysis, and in all cases, the calculated exponents were in good agreement.
The stress exponent values of about 5 and 12, depending on the processing route of the material, are very close to those determined
by room-temperature conventional creep testing of the same material reported in the literature. For the HW condition, the
n value of about 5 together with a very fine grain size of 4.5 μm and a high volume fraction of second-phase particles of
8.6% may suggest that dislocation climb is the creep mechanism. For all other conditions with different grain sizes and second-phase
volume fractions, however, the high n value of 12 implies that the operative creep mechanism is dislocation creep, which is
independent of grain size. 相似文献

This paper surveys and compares creep and stress relaxation data on finegrained eutectic Sn-Pb. It examines the consistency
of the available data on this extensively studied solder material and studies whether stress relaxation offers a reasonable
alternative to the more laborious conventional creep tests. The data survey reveals systematic differences between the creep
behavior of material that is grain-refined by cold work and recrystallization (“recrystallized”) and that refined by rapid
solidification (“quenched”). The recrystallized material has the conventional three regimes of creep behavior: a high-stress
region with a stress exponent, n ∼ 4–7 and an activation energy Q ∼ 80 kJ/mole (a bit below that for self-diffusion of Pb
and Sn), an intermediate region with n ∼ 2 and Q ∼ 45 kJ/mole (near that for grain boundary diffusion), and a low-stress region
with n ∼ 3 and Q ∼ 80 (suggesting a reversion to a bulk mechanism). The quenched material shows only two regions: a high-stress
creep with a stress exponent, n ∼ 3–7, and a low-stress region with n ∼ 3. The mechanisms in both regimes have activation
energies intermediate between bulk and interface values (50–70 kJ/mole). With minor exceptions, the stress relaxation data
and the creep data are in reasonable agreement. Most of the exceptions seem to be related to the difficulty of capturing the
full details of grain boundary creep in stress relaxation tests. 相似文献

The compression creep behavior was studied for the ternary solder alloy 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu in the as-cast condition. Samples
were tested under stresses of 2–45 MPa and temperatures of −25–160°C. There was a significant variability in the creep curve
shape, strain magnitude, and steady-state strain-rate properties. A multivariable linear-regression analysis of the steady-state
strain-rate data, using the sinh-law stress representation, indicated two mechanisms distinguished by low- and high-temperature
regimes of −25–75°C and 75–160°C, respectively. The sinh-law stress exponent (n) and apparent-activation energy (ΔH) in the
−25–75°C regime were 4.4 ± 0.7 kJ/mol and 25 ± 7 kJ/mol (63% confidence intervals), respectively. Those same parameters in
the 75–160°C regime were 5.2±0.8 kJ/mol and 95±14 kJ/mol, respectively, for the high-temperature regime. The values of ΔH
suggested a short-circuit diffusion mechanism at low temperatures and a lattice or bulk-diffusion mechanism at high temperatures.
The stress dependency of the steady-state strain rate did not indicate a strong power-law breakdown behavior or a threshold
stress phenomenon. Cracks and grain-boundary sliding were not observed in any of the samples. As the creep temperature increased,
a coarsened particle boundary and particle depletion zone formed in the region of fine Ag3Sn particles that existed between the Sn-rich phase areas. The coarsened particle boundary, as well as accelerated coarsening
of Ag3Sn particles, were direct consequences of the creep deformation process. 相似文献

Compression creep tests were performed on the 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu (wt.%) solder. The specimens were aged prior to testing at
125°C, 24 h or 150°C, 24 h. Applied stresses were 2–40 MPa. Test temperatures were −25°C to 160°C. The 125°C, 24-h aging treatment
caused the formation of coarsened Ag3Sn particle boundaries within the larger ternary-eutectic regions. The 150°C, 24-h aging treatment resulted in contiguous
Ag3Sn boundaries in the ternary-eutectic regions as well as a general coarsening of Ag3Sn particles. The 125°C, 24-h aging treatment had only a small effect on the strain-time curves vis-à-vis the as-cast condition.
Negative creep was observed at 75°C for time periods >105 sec and stresses of 3–10 MPa. The creep kinetics exhibited a sinh term (stress) exponent, p, of 5.3±0.6 and an apparent-activation
energy, ΔH, of 49±5 kJ/mol when data from all test temperatures were included. A good data correlation was observed over the
[−25–125°C] temperature regime. Steady-state creep kinetics exhibited a greater variability in the [125–160°C] regime because
of the simultaneous coarsening of Ag3Sn particles. The aging treatment of 150°C for 24 h resulted in a more consistent stress dependence and better reproducibility
of the creep curves. Negative creep was observed in samples aged at 150°C for 24 h when tested at −25°C, 25°C, and 75°C. The
values of p and ΔH were 4.9±0.3 kJ/mol and 6±5 kJ/mol, respectively. Only a slight improvement in the data correlation was
observed when the analysis examined separated [−25−75°C] and [75–166°C] temperature regimes. Creep testing did not cause observable
deformation in any of the sample microstructures. 相似文献

Sn-Ag-Cu solder is one of the candidate alternatives to Sn-Pb-based solders. In order to improve its performance, different
materials have been added to Sn-Ag-Cu-based solders. Several studies on Sn-Ag-Cu-based solders with Bi additions have shown
Sn-Ag-Cu-Bi to be a class of solders with good wetting behavior and good performance that show great promise for use in the
electronics assembly and packaging industry. To investigate the mechanical reliability of the Sn-Ag-Cu-Bi solders further,
single-lap shear creep characteristics have been studied in this work. Dog-bone-type solder joint specimens were formed using
five types of solder alloys, Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu and Sn-3.0 Ag-0.5Cu-xBi (x = 1 wt.% to 4 wt.%) with Cu substrates, and creep tests were performed at temperatures of 120°C and 150°C under stresses
of 5 MPa to 10 MPa. Results indicate that the rupture times for Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu-xBi solder joints up to 4 wt.% of Bi are longer than the rupture time for Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu. Stress exponents ranged from 3 to
7 for temperatures of 150°C and 120°C with stresses under 10 MPa. Microstructural analyses using scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) were performed and related to the creep behavior of the solder joints. 相似文献

The partitioned viscoplastic-constitutive properties of the Sn3.9Ag0.6Cu Pb-free alloy are presented and compared with baseline
data from the eutectic Sn63Pb37 solder. Steady-state creep models are obtained from creep and monotonic tests at three different
temperatures for both solders. Based on steady-state creep results and creep-test data, a transient creep model is developed
for both Pb-free and Sb37Pb solders. A one-dimensional (1-D), incremental analytic model of the test setup is developed to
simulate constant-load creep and monotonic and isothermal cyclic-mechanical tests performed over various temperatures and
strain rates and stresses using a thermome-chanical-microscale (TMM) test system developed by the authors. By fitting simulation
results to monotonic testing data, plastic models are also achieved. The comparison between the two solders shows that Sn3.9Ag0.6Cu
has much better creep resistance than Sn37Pb at low and medium stresses. The obtained, partitioned viscoplastic-constitutive
properties of the Sn3.9Ag0.6Cu Pb-free alloy can be used in commercial finite-element model software. 相似文献

This paper reports the results of a study on the effect of the cooling rate during solidification on the shear creep and low
cycle shear fatigue behavior of 60 Sn/40 Pb solder joints, and on bulk solder tensile properties. Solder joints were made
with three different initial microstructures by quenching, air-cooling and furnace-cooling. They have similar steady-state
strain rates under creep at relatively high shear stresses (i.e. in the matrix creep region) but creep at quite different strain rates at lower shear stresses (i.e. in the grain boundary creep region). These results are ascribed to the refined grain size and less lamellar phase morphology
that results on increasing the cooling rate. Tensile tests on bulk solders that were cold-worked, quenched and furnace-cooled
show that a faster cooling rate decreases the ultimate strength and increases the ductility at low strain rates. The fatigue
life of quenched solder joints is shown to be longer than that of the furnace-cooled joints. 相似文献

Creep properties of Sn-8Mass%Zn-3Mass%Bi lead-free alloy 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The creep properties of Sn-8mass%Zn-3mass%Bi were investigated and compared with those of other lead-free solders and a Sn-Pb
eutectic solder. The creep rupture time decreases with increasing the initial stress and the temperature. For high stresses,
the linear relationships between the minimum strain rate and the applied stress were observed. The stress exponents were examined
to be 9.3, 7, and 4 at 298 K, 348 K, and 398 K, respectively. For low stresses, the minimum creep rate becomes relatively
fast, and the creep resistance diminishes. In this range, secondary creep reduces, and the tertiary creep predominates. The
creep properties of Sn-8Zn-3Bi are similar to those of Sn-Ag alloys at high stresses and those of Sn-0.5Cu at low stresses. 相似文献

Tensile and short term (24 h) creep tests were performed on Xydar G930, a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) with 30 wt.% glass
filler, at temperatures and stress levels ranging from room temperature to 175°C and 0.3 fraction ultimate tensile strength
(UTS) to 0.8 fraction UTS, respectively. Temperature was found to have an affect on the short term tensile properties. The
resulting strain vs time creep curves showed the expected dependence of creep strain on temperature and stress level. Creep
compliance curves were derived from the creep curves and showed distinctively nonlinear viscoelastic behavior at all stress
levels and temperatures. Creep compliance was found to follow a power law in time. The power law was used to model the stress
dependence of creep and the Arrhenius equation was employed to model the temperature dependence up to 120°C. A significant
reduction in creep resistance was observed at 175°C. Time-temperature-stress-superposition was used to show that the material
followed power law behavior up to 1000 h. 相似文献

In the present study, the Sn-1.7Sb-1.5Ag solder alloy and the same material reinforced with 5 vol.% of 0.3-μm Al2O3 particles were synthesized using the powder metallurgy route of blending, compaction, sintering, and extrusion. The impression
creep behavior of both monolithic and composite solders was studied under a constant punching stress in the range of 20 MPa
to 110 MPa, at temperatures in the range of 320 K to 430 K. The creep resistance of the composite solder was higher than that
of the monolithic alloy at all applied stresses and temperatures, as indicated by their corresponding minimum creep rates.
This was attributed to the dispersive distribution of the submicron-sized Al2O3 particles in the composite solder. Assuming a power-law relationship between the impression stress and velocity, average
stress exponents of 5.3 to 5.6 and 5.8 to 5.9 were obtained for the monolithic and composite materials, respectively. Analysis
of the data showed that, for all loads and temperatures, the activation energy for both materials was almost stress independent,
with average values of 44.0 kJ mol−1 and 41.6 kJ mol−1 for the monolithic and composite solders, respectively. These activation energies are close to the value of 46 kJ mol−1 for dislocation climb, assisted by vacancy diffusion through dislocation cores in the Sn. This, together with the stress
exponents of about 5 to 5.9, suggests that the operative creep mechanism is dislocation viscous glide controlled by dislocation
pipe diffusion. 相似文献

The creep behavior of Pb-10wt.%Sn, a common high-lead solder used in microelectronic packaging, was studied by impression
creep testing of ball-gridarray (BGA) solder balls attached to an organic substrate, both above and below the solvus temperature
(408 K). Below the solvus temperature, the solder microstructure consists of roughly equiaxed grains of the Pb-rich solid
solution α, which contains <5wt.%Sn in solution, with a coarse dispersion of Sn-rich β precipitates. Here, the creep behavior
of the solder is controlled by dislocation climb via dislocation core diffusion, yielding n≈4 and Q≈60 kJ/mole. Above the
solvus temperature, where the entire 10wt.%Sn is in solution, the creep mechanism becomes controlled by viscous glide of dislocations,
limited by solute drag, with n≈3 and Q≈92 kJ/mole. Based on experimental data, creep equations for the as-reflowed solder
in the two temperature regimes are given. Comparison of the present data with those available in the literature showed good
agreement with the proposed laws. 相似文献
