Intermetallic compounds formed during interfacial reactions between liquid Sn-8Zn-3Bi solders and Ni substrates

The morphology and growth kinetics of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) formed at the interfaces between liquid Sn-8Zn-3Bi solders and nickel substrates in the temperature range from 225°C to 400°C are investigated for the applications in bonding recycled sputtering targets to their backing plates. The results show that a continuous single layer of Ni₅Zn₂₁ IMC appears at temperatures below 325°C, while a double layer containing Ni₅Zn₂₁ and Ni₃₅Zn₂₂Sn₄₃ IMCs is formed at temperatures above 325°C. In both cases, the growth kinetics of IMCs is interface-controlled. During the growth of IMCs, their reaction fronts migrate in the direction of the solder much more rapidly than toward the nickel substrate, and erosion of the Ni substrate is quite slight.     

Influence of interfacial reaction layer on reliability of chip-scale package joint from using Sn-37Pb and Sn-8Zn-3Bi solder

The microstructure of Sn-37Pb and Sn-8Zn-3Bi solders and the full strength of these solders with an Au/Ni/Cu pad under isothermal aging conditions were investigated. The full strengths tended to decrease as the aging temperature and time increased, regardless of the properties of the solders. The Sn-8Zn-3Bi had higher full strength than Sn-37Pb. In the Sn-37Pb solder, Ni₃Sn₄ compounds and irregular-shaped Pb-rich phase were embedded in a β-Sn matrix. The Ni₃Sn₄ compounds were observed at the interface between the solder and pad. The microstructure of the as-reflowed Sn-8Zn-3Bi solder mainly consists of the β-Sn matrix scattered with Zn-rich phase. Zinc first reacted with Au and then was transformed to the AuZn compound. With aging, Ni₅Zn₂₁ compounds were formed at the Ni layer. Finally, a Ni₅Zn₂₁ phase, divided into three layers, was formed with column-shaped grains, and the thicknesses of the layers were changed.     

Intermetallic compounds and adhesion strength between the Sn-9Zn-1.5Ag-0.5Bi lead-free solder and unfluxed Cu substrate

The intermetallic compounds (IMCs) formed at the interface between the Sn-9Zn-1.5Ag-0.5Bi lead-free solder alloy and unfluxed Cu substrate have been investigated by x-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The melting point and melting range of the Sn-9Zn-1.5Ag-0.5Bi solder alloy are determined as 195.9°C and 10°C, respectively, by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Cu₆Sn₅ and Cu₅Zn₈ IMCs are formed between the Sn-9Zn-1.5Ag-0.5Bi/unfluxed Cu substrate wetted at 250°C for 10 sec. The interfacial adhesion strength changes from 10.27±0.68 MPa to 8.58±0.59 MPa when soldering time varies from 10 sec to 30 sec at 250°C.     

Electromigration in the Flip Chip Solder Joint of Sn-8Zn-3Bi on Copper Pads

Electromigration in Sn-8Zn-3Bi flip chip solder bumps on Cu pads has been studied at 120°C with an average current density of 4 × 10³ A/cm² and 4.5 × 10⁴ A/cm². Due to the polarity effect, the thickness of the intermetallic compound Cu-Zn (γ-phase) formed at the anode is much greater than that at the cathode. The solder joint fails after 117 h of stressing at 4.5 × 10⁴ A/cm², and void formation at the cathode can clearly be seen after polishing. However, it is the melting at the edge of the bump that causes the solder joint to fail. A simulation of the current density distribution indicates that the current density is not distributed uniformly, and current crowding occurs inside the bump. The results indicate that the increase of current density associated with Joule heating has affected melting and enhanced damage in the solder joint during electromigration.     

Electromigration behavior in Cu/Sn-8Zn-3Bi/Cu solder joint

Electromigration behavior in a one-dimensional Cu/Sn-8Zn-3Bi/Cu solder joint structure was investigated in ambient with a current density of 3.5 × 10⁴ A/cm² at 60 °C. Due to the compressive stress induced by volume expansion resulting from Cu-Zn intermetallic compound (IMC) growth, Cu₅Zn₈ IMC layers were squeezed out continuously along IMC/Cu interfaces at both the anode and the cathode with increasing the current stressing time, which was not only driven by the concentration gradient, but also accelerated by the electromigration. And a few voids propagated and formed at the anode and the cathode solder/IMC interfaces during electromigration. Additionally, Sn hillocks occurred in the bulk solder, and Sn hillocks formed at the anode side were larger than those at the cathode side.     

Encapsulation of lead-free Sn/Zn/Bi solder alloy particles by coating with wax powder for improving oxidation resistance

An encapsulation treatment of lead-free Sn/Zn/Bi solder powder was investigated for improving the oxidation resistance. Sn-8mass%Zn-3mass%Bi alloy particles were coated with a wax (12-hydroxystearic acid) powder by means of a dry mechanical treatment method using a ball mill. In order to determine the optimum operating conditions of the ball mill in the wax-coating treatments, the compressive energy required for deforming a single Sn/Zn/Bi alloy particle was measured with an unconfined compression tester and the mechanical energy applied to the alloy particles in the ball mill was estimated using the results of the compression test. The optimum operating conditions were determined based on both the applied energy and the flowability of solder pastes, and the wax-coated alloy particles maintaining the spherical shape were obtained under the conditions. The wettability test and the solder balling test for the solder pastes containing the wax-coated alloy particles stored at room temperature in air were carried out to evaluate the oxidation resistance performance. The wax-coated alloy particles had an excellent wettability compared with the original alloy particles, and the oxidation resistance of the Sn/Zn/Bi solder powder was improved by the encapsulation treatment.
