Abstract: | The creep behavior of the eutectic tin-silver joints and tin-silver composite solder joints containing 20 vol.% of Cu6Sn5, Ni3Sn4, and FeSn2 intermetallic reinforcements introduced by in-situ methods was investigated. These creep tests were carried out using single
shear lap solder joints at room temperature, 85°C, and 125°C. The creep resistance was similar in magnitude for all alloys,
and with increasing temperature, the stressexponents decreased in a manner consistent with power-law breakdown behavior. The
FeSn2 intermetallic reinforced composite solder was found to be the most creep-resistant alloy at room temperature. Creep failure
was observed to occur within the solder matrix in all these solder joints. Although a detailed analysis of the processes involved
was difficult because of smearing of the features in the fracture surface, there were indications of grain-boundary separation,
ductile fracture, and interfacial separation.
