This work sought to examine the suitability of twin roll strip casting for Ag-27%Cu-25%Zn-3%Sn brazing alloy (BAg-7A) and to investigate the mechanical properties and microstructure of the strip. The effect of aging heat treatment on the properties was also studied,. This new manufacturing process has applications in the production of the brazing alloy. XRD and microstructural analysis of the Ag-27%Cu-25%Zn-3%Sn strip represented eutectic microstructure of a Cu-rich phase and a Ag-rich matrix regardless of heat treatment. The results of mechanical tests showed tensile strength of 470MPa, a significant enhancement, and an 18% elongation of the twin roll casted strip, due mainly to the solid solution strengthening of Zn atoms (${\sim}20%$) in the Cu-rich phases. Tensile results showed gradually decreasing strengths and increasing elongation with aging heat treatment. Microstructural evolution and fractography were also investigated and related to the mechanical properties.

Electromigration characteristics of $SnAg_3Cu_{0.7}$ and eutectic SnPb solder were studied using thin stripe-type test structures. Significant changes in the microstructure of two solders were observed after electromigration test, in which the temperature and the current density were varied from 90 to $110^{\circ}C$ and from $4.0\times10^4\;A/cm^2\;to\;9.2\times10^4\;A/cm^2$. In SnAgCu solders, hillocks were main]y observed near the anode end. From resistance measurements, it was calculated that the activation energy of the SnAgCu solder for electromigration was 1.04 eV And in eutectic SnPb without the effect of pads, while depleted region was found near cathode end, Sn-rich hillocks were observed near the anode end. During eutectic SnPb electromigration, it were observed that electromigration behavior had two migration modes.

3차원 적층 패키지를 위한 Cu/Ni/Au/Sn-Ag/Cu 미세 범프의 열처리에 따른 금속간 화합물 성장 거동을 분석하기 위하여 in-situ SEM에서 $135^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $170^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 실시간 열처리 실험을 진행하였다. 실험 결과 금속간 화합물의 성장 거동은 열처리시간이 경과함에 따라 시간의 제곱근에 직선 형태로 증가하였고, 확산에 의한 성장이 지배적인 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. Ni/Au 층의 존재로 인해 Au의 확산으로 복잡한 구조의 금속간 화합물이 생성 된 것을 확인할 수 있다. 활성화 에너지는 $Cu_3Sn$의 경우 0.69eV, $(Cu,Ni,Au)_6Sn_5$경우 0.84 eV로 Ni이 포함된 금속간 화합물이 더 높은 것을 확인 하였으며, 확산 방지층 역할을 하는 Ni층에 의해 금속간 화합물 성장이 억제됨에 따라 신뢰성이 향상 될 것으로 사료된다.

Even though electroless Hi and Sn-Ag-Cu solder are widely used materials in electronic packaging applications, interfacial reactions of the ternary Ni-Cu~Sn system have not been known well because of their complexity. Because the growth of intermetallics at the interface affects reliability of solder joint, the intermetallics in Ni-Cu-Sn system should be identified, and their growth should be investigated. Therefore, in present study, interfacial reactions between electroless Ni UB7f and 95.5Sn-4.0Ag-0.5Cu alloy were investigated focusing on morphology of the IMCs, thermodynamics, and growth kinetics. The IMCs that appear during a reflow and an aging are different each other. In early stage of a reflow, ternary IMC whose composition is Ni$_{22}$Cu$_{29}$Sn$_{49}$ forms firstly. Due to the lack of Cu diffusion, Ni$_{34}$Cu$_{6}$Sn$_{60}$ phase begins growing in a further reflow. Finally, the Ni$_{22}$Cu$_{29}$Sn$_{49}$ IMC grows abnormally and spalls into the molten solder. The transition of the IMCs from Ni$_{22}$Cu$_{29}$Sn$_{49}$ to Ni$_{34}$Cu$_{6}$Sn$_{60}$ was observed at a specific temperature. From the measurement of activation energy of each IMC, growth kinetics was discussed. In contrast to the reflow, three kinds of IMCs (Ni$_{22}$Cu$_{29}$Sn$_{49}$, Ni$_{20}$Cu$_{28}$Au$_{5}$, and Ni$_{34}$Cu$_{6}$Sn$_{60}$) were observed in order during an aging. All of the IMCs were well attached on UBM. Au in the quaternary IMC, which originates from immersion Au plating, prevents abnormal growth and separation of the IMC. Growth of each IMC is very dependent to the aging temperature because of its high activation energy. Besides the IMCs at the interface, plate-like Ag3Sn IMC grows as solder bump size inside solder bump. The abnormally grown Ni$_{22}$Cu$_{29}$Sn$_{49}$ and Ag$_3$Sn IMCs can be origins of brittle failure.failure.

본 논문에서는 다양한 조성의 주석-은-구리 합금계 솔더볼과 ENIG 및 Cu-OSP 패드와의 계면 반응에 대해 연구하였다. ENIG 패드와 미량의 Sb이 첨가된 합금 솔더와의 계면 반응 시 다른 솔더에 비해 매우 얇은 100 nm 내외의 두께를 가진 P-rich Ni layer가 형성되었다. 미량의 Ni이 첨가된 합금 솔더와 Cu-OSP 금속 패드와의 계면 반응 시에는 다른 솔더와는 달리 균일한 두께의 $Cu_6Sn_5$ 금속간화합물이 형성되었으며 추가 리플로우 시에 금속간화합물 입자가 거의 성장하지 않았다. 또한 $150^{\circ}C$의 장시간 열처리 시에 다른 솔더에 비해 매우 얇은 두께의 $Cu_3Sn$ 금속간화합물이 형성되었다.

Recently, mechanical reliabilities including a drop test have been a hot issue. In this paper, solder balls with new components which are Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu and Sn-1.0Ag-0.5Cu-0.05N are introduced, and board level drop test for them are conducted under JEDEC standard in which the board with 15 flip chips is dropped as 1,500g acceleration during 0.5ms. The drop simulations are studied by using a implicit method in the ANSYS LS-DYNA, and modal analysis is made. Through both analyses, the solder balls with new components are evaluated under the drop. It is found that the maximum stress of each chip is occurred between the solder ball and the PCB, and the highest value among the maximum stresses in the chips is occurred on the chip nearest to fixed holes on the board in the drop tests and simulations.
