Ni颗粒增强无铅复合钎料中IMC形态之演变

通过改变钎焊工艺曲线来控制热输入量。研究了Ni颗粒周围金属间化合物(IMC)以及钎料/基板界面处IMC的形态演变。结果表明,随着热输入量由低变高,Ni颗粒周围IMC形态从向日葵状向多边形状发展,最终成为遍布整个钎料层的细碎的IMC形态;而钎料/基板界面层,因Ni颗粒的加入,出现大量的三维孔洞状IMC。从而形成了Cu元素扩散的通道,使得界面层厚度增加且呈线性增长趋势。     

Creep Properties of Composite Solders Reinforced with Nano- and Microsized Particles

In the present work the creep properties of Sn37Pb- and Sn0.7Cu-based composite solders reinforced with metallic nano- and microsized Cu and Ag particles have been studied. First, a series of volume percentages of reinforcements were selected to optimize the content of reinforcing particles. Then, the composite solder with optimum volume fraction of reinforcement particles, corresponding to the maximum creep rupture lifetime, was selected to investigate the effect of applied stress and temperature on the creep rupture lifetime of the composite solder joints. In the creep rupture lifetime test, small single-lap tensile-shear joints were adopted. The results indicate that composite solders reinforced with microsized particles exhibit better creep strengthening than composite solders reinforced with nanosized particles, although the mechanical tensile shear strength of composite solder joints reinforced with nanosized particles may be higher than those reinforced with microsized particles. Moreover, the creep strengthening action of the reinforcement particles is more obvious under conditions of lower applied stress or lower test temperature. Strengthening by metallic Cu or Ag reinforcement particles decreases with increasing temperature or applied stress. The Sn0.7Cu-based composite solder reinforced with microsized Ag particles is a low-cost lead-free solder that is easy to process and may have good market potential.

Solid-state intermetallic compound layer growth between copper and 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu solder

Long-term, solid-state intermetallic compound (IMC) layer growth was examined in 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu (wt.%)/copper (Cu) couples. Aging temperatures and times ranged from 70°C to 205°C and from 1 day to 400 days, respectively. The IMC layer thicknesses and compositions were compared to those investigated in 96.5Sn-3.5Ag/Cu, 95.5Sn-0.5Ag-4.0Cu/Cu, and 100Sn/Cu couples. The nominal Cu₃Sn and Cu₆Sn₅ stoichiometries were observed. The Cu₃Sn layer accounted for 0.4–0.6 of the total IMC layer thickness. The 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu/Cu couples exhibited porosity development at the Cu₃Sn/Cu interface and in the Cu₃Sn layer as well as localized “plumes” of accelerated Cu₃Sn growth into the Cu substrate when aged at 205°C and t>150 days. An excess of 3–5at.%Cu in the near-interface solder field likely contributed to IMC layer growth. The growth kinetics of the IMC layer in 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6Cu/Cu couples were described by the equation x=x_o+Atⁿexp [−ΔH/RT]. The time exponents, n, were 0.56±0.06, 0.54±0.07, and 0.58±0.07 for the Cu₃Sn layer, the Cu₆Sn₅, and the total layer, respectively, indicating a diffusion-based mechanism. The apparent-activation energies (ΔH) were Cu₃Sn layer: 50±6 kJ/mol; Cu₆Sn₅ layer: 44±4 kJ/mol; and total layer: 50±4 kJ/mol, which suggested a fast-diffusion path along grain boundaries. The kinetics of Cu₃Sn growth were sensitive to the Pb-free solder composition while those of Cu₆Sn₅ layer growth were not so.     

Low-cycle fatigue prediction model for pb-free solder 96.5Sn-3.5Ag

Low-cycle fatigue (LCF) data of Sn-Ag eutectic solder (96.5Sn-3.5Ag) under various temperatures and frequencies has been described using three different prediction models, i.e., Coffin-Manson model, Smith-Watson-Topper (SWT) model, and Morrow energy model. The LCF behavior represented by the present prediction models showed temperature and frequency dependences, i.e., the fatigue ductility coefficient increased with increasing frequency and decreasing temperature. In order to better correlate the LCF data, a flow stress and/or frequency-dependent modifications were introduced to the Coffin-Manson and Morrow energy models. The frequency-modified Coffin-Manson model could not describe the influence of temperature on LCF behavior, while the flow stress-modified frequency-modified Morrow energy model, into which the metallurgical response (flow stress and frequency) was introduced to account for the effect of temperature and frequency on LCF behavior, gave reasonable predictions of LCF data under various temperatures and frequencies.     

Effects of reflow on wettability, microstructure and mechanical properties in lead-free solders

Solder joints used in electronic applications undergo reflow operations. Such operations can affect the solderability, interface intermetallic layer formation and the resultant solder joint microstructure. These in turn can affect the overall mechanical behavior of such joints. In this study the effects of reflow on solderability and mechanical properties were studied. Nanoindentation testing (NIT) was used to obtain mechanical properties from the non-reflow (as-melted) and multiple reflowed solder materials. These studies were carried out with eutectic Sn-3.5Ag solders, with or without mechanically added Cu or Ag reinforcements, using Cu substrates. Microstructural analysis was carried out on solder joints made with the same solders using copper substrate.     

Creep phenomena in lead-free solders

A critical review of data on microstructure and creep process activation energy values for a number of lead-free solder alloys like Sn-Ag; Sn-Bi; Sn-In was conducted. The review revealed a scatter in experimental data, which could not be explained by the dislocation creep mechanism only, even after the published data was corrected for Young’s modulus temperature dependence. An analysis of the data implies that possible origin of such a scatter is nucleation, accumulation and further growth of such internal defects as pores and microcracks during creep. It is shown that these processes may affect the measured steady-state creep rates, and may be one of the major reasons for the observed scatter in experimental data, and, therefore, must be taken into consideration in lead-free solder alloys’ creep studies.     

感应自加热重熔无铅焊料凸台的剪切失效模式

通过两次高频感应重熔制备了Cu焊盘上S n3．5Ag焊料和Sn3．0Ag0．5Cu焊料凸台,并进行了120℃下的老化试验以及老化试件的剪切强度试验,分析了不同老化时间下两种无铅焊料凸台的剪切断裂模式。焊料凸台的剪切载荷-位移曲线的特征以及对焊料凸台剪切断口的扫描电镜形貌分析结果表明,不同老化时间下无铅焊料凸台的剪切断裂表现为塑性、韧性和脆性三种断裂模式。对凸台焊料合金的组织以及界面观察结果表明,随老化时间不断生长的脆性金属间化合物层以及焊料组织粗大是致使断裂失效模式转变的根本原因。
