Deposition and application of electroless Ni-W-P under bump metallisation for high temperature lead-free solder interconnectsLiu, Li January 2016 (has links)
A reliable and robust diffusion barrier, commonly known as under bump metallisation (UBM), is indispensable in solder interconnects in order to retard the interfacial reaction rate, hence the growth of intermetallic compounds (IMCs). However, electroless Ni-P coatings are not adequate to inhibit interfacial reactions effectively since the formation of columnar structure and voids in the crystalline Ni3P layer in hybrid automotive devices (operating temperature above 300ºC) can significantly deteriorate the mechanical integrity of solder joints. In this thesis, electroless Ni-W-P coatings, as an effective UBM capable to serving under high temperature (up to 450ºC), are developed, characterised and subsequently applied onto the high temperature lead-free solder interconnects.

Films piézoélectriques sans plomb par une approche sol gel et applications potentielles dans les MEMS / Lead-free piezoelectric films prepared by sol-gel and potential applications in MEMSAbou Dargham, Sara 16 December 2016 (has links)
Les composés à base du plomb sont très utilisés dans l'industrie microélectronique en raison de leurs propriétés ferroélectriques et piézoélectriques. Cependant, en raison de la toxicité du plomb, la recherche est dirigée vers le développement des matériaux piézoélectriques « écologiques » (sans plomb). L’objectif de ce travail consiste donc à synthétiser par procédé sol-gel un matériau piézoélectrique écologique : le Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (BNT). Les films minces ont été déposés à l’aide d’une tournette sur des substrats de Pt/TiOx/SiO2/Si. Une étape de séchage sur plaque est appliquée à 100ºC après chaque dépôt. L’utilisation du procédé thermique rapide (RTP) permet la densification et la cristallisation de BNT. Ainsi une pyrolyse est appliquée après le séchage pour densifier le film ; la température a été fixée à 200ºC. Enfin un recuit à 700ºC a permis la cristallisation des films dans la structure pérovskite. Les résultats de caractérisations électriques macroscopiques ainsi que les caractérisations à l’échelle locale ont mis en évidence des performances diélectrique, ferroélectrique et piézoélectrique encourageantes. / Lead based materials are widely used in microelectronic industry due to their ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. However, due to lead toxicity, it has recently desired to develop lead-free piezoelectric materials for environmental protection. The aim of this work is to synthesize a lead-free piezoelectric material by sol-gel method: Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3. BNT films were deposited by spin coating on Pt/TiOx/SiO2/Si substrate. The films were dried at 100ºC on a hot-plate after each layer deposition. Rapid thermal process (RTP) was used for the densification and crystallization of BNT films. Thus a pyrolysis step is applied to densify the dried film; the temperature was set at 200ºC. The film annealed at 700ºC is well crystallized in the perovskite phase. Macroscopic and local electrical characterizations showed promising dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties.

The effect of rework on brittle fractures in lead free solder joints : The growth of intermetallic compounds during rework and its effectsDornerus, Elin January 2009 (has links)
<p>Saab Microwave Systems, SMW is a supplier of radar systems. The circuit boards that are operating in their radars have components which solder joints contains lead. However, the EU directive RoHs and WEEE are causing SMW to prepare for a transition to lead free solder joints. The objective of this thesis is to gain deeper knowledge of lead free solder joints.</p><p>Brittle fractures in solder joints is a type of failure that might increase in a transition to lead free solder joints. The brittle fractures are induced by the creation of the intermetallic phases which are formed during soldering. The amount and composition of the intermetallics affects the mechanical strength of the joint. An intermetallic layer is thickened during heat exposure as during soldering, thermal aging and rework.</p><p>The focus of this thesis was to investigate how rework affect the brittleness of the lead free solder joint and thereby how the intermetallic layers change depending on chemical composition, design and reflow cycles. Two types of components and two types of solder materials (SnPb and SAC305) were studied.</p><p>To study the mechanical properties of the joint a shear testing device was used. This is a way of measuring the reliability of the joint when subjected to mechanical shock. The intermetallic layers were examined in a Scanning Electron Microscope and the fracture surfaces were studied in a optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope and a stereomicroscope. The heat spread over the board where examined by soldering thermocouples to the board and plotting the values of time and temperature.</p><p>The results showed that the rework process did not have any significant impact of the intermetallic growth. The adjecent and distant components were not damaged during rework. A lead free rework process can therefor be preformed successfully at SMW. The intermetallic layers formed at the interface between the a lead free solder and a nickel finish grew faster than an intermetallic layer formed between a leaded solder and a nickel finish. The presence of nickel could therefore have a more negative effect on the intermetallic growth rate for the lead free material compared to the leaded.</p>

Preparation Of Lead-free Bzt-bct Thin Films By Chemical Solution Deposition And Their CharacterizationCeltikci, Baris 01 October 2012 (has links) (PDF)
In the presented thesis, lead-free Ba(Ti0.8Zr0.2)O3-(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BZT-BCT) thin films were deposited on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates using chemical solution deposition method and then the effect of process parameters were investigated to obtain optimum parameters of these lead-free thin films. The phase was selected near to the morphotropic phase boundary (MPH) to increase the number of polarization directions where rhombohedral and tetragonal phases exist together.
In this study, the effect of sintering temperatures on microstructure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties were studied systematically. Among the various high-quality BZT-BCT thin films with uniform thickness, the optimum dielectric and ferroelectric responses were observed for films annealed at 800 oC for 1 h sintering time. The thickness was kept constant for all measurements as 500 nm (triple layered films). Therefore, the average grain sizes were found around 60 nm for samples sintered at 700,750 and 800 oC.
BZT-BCT thin films sintered at 800 oC showed effective remnant polarization and coercive field values of 2.9 µ / C/cm2 and 49.4 kV/cm, together with a high dielectric constant and low loss tangent of 365.6 and 3.52 %, respectively, at a frequency of 600 kHz due to pure perovskite phase showing full crystallization and minimum surface porosity obtained at this temperature.

Transient and Steady-state Creep in a SnAgCu Lead-free Solder Alloy: Experiments and ModelingShirley, Dwayne R. 08 March 2011 (has links)
It has been conventional to simplify the thermo-mechanical modeling of solder joints by omitting the primary (transient) contributions to total creep deformation, assuming that secondary (steady-state) creep strain is dominant and primary creep is negligible. The error associated with this assumption has been difficult to assess because it depends on the properties of the solder joint and the temperature-time profile. This research examines the relative contributions of primary and secondary creep in Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu solder using the constant load creep and stress relaxation measurements for bulk tensile specimens and the finite element analysis of a chip resistor (trilayer) solder joint structure that was thermally cycled under multiple temperature ranges and ramp rates. It was found that neglect of primary creep can result in errors in the predicted stress and strain of the solder joint. In turn, these discrepancies can lead to errors in the estimation of the solder thermal fatigue life due to the changing proportion of primary creep strain to total inelastic strain under different thermal profiles.
The constant-load creep and stress relaxation data for Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu span a range of strain rates 10(-8) 1/s < strain rate < 10(-4) 1/s, and temperatures 25°C, 75°C and 100°C. Creep and stress relaxation measurements show that transient creep caused faster strain rates during stress relaxation for a given stress compared to the corresponding minimum creep rate from constant-load creep tests. The extent of strain hardening during primary creep was a function of temperature and strain rate.
A constitutive creep model was presented for Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu that incorporates both transient and steady-state creep to provide agreement for both creep and stress relaxation data with a single set of eight coefficients. The model utilizes both temperature compensated time and strain rate to normalize minimum strain rate and saturated transient creep strain, thereby establishing equivalence between decreased temperature and increased strain rate. The apparent activation energy of steady-state creep was indicative of both dislocation core and bulk lattice diffusion was the most sensitive model parameter. A saturation threshold was defined that distinguishes whether primary or secondary creep is dominant under either static or variable loading.
