This article briefly reviews the results of recently reported research on high-temperature Pb-free solder alloys and the research trend for characterization of the interfacial reaction layer. To improve the product reliability of high-temperature Pb-free solder alloys, thorough research is necessary not only to enhance the alloy properties but also to characterize and understand the interfacial reaction occurring during and after the bonding process. Transmission electron microscopy analysis is expected to play an important role in the development of high-temperature solders by providing accurate and reliable data with a high spatial resolution and facilitating understanding of the interfacial reaction at the solder joint.

Statement of problem. Intraoral corrosion not only affects the esthetic and function of metallic dental restoration, but also has biologic consequences as well. Therefore, corrosion is considered a primary factor when choosing the dental alloy and laboratory technique. Purpose. The objective of this study was to compare the effects of solder and laser weld on corrosion Material and methods. Test specimens were made of 2 types of gold alloys, Co-Cr and Ni-Cr alloy and fabricated 3 methods, respectively: as cast, solder, and laser weld. For the analysis of corroding properties, potentiodynamic polarization test and immersion test conducted. The potentiodynamic polarization scan curve were recorded in 0.9% NaCl solution(pH 7) using Potentiostat/Galyanostat Model 273A. All specimens were exposed to 0.9% NaCl solution(pH 2.3) during 14 days. Elemental release into corrosive solution was measured by atomic emission spectrometry Differences in corrosion potential and mass release were determined using ANOVA. Results and conclusion. Through analyses of the data, following results were obtained. 1. In Pontor MPF and Wiron 99, corrosion potential of the solder group was statistically lower than as cast and laser weld group (p<0.05) , but there was no difference between corrosion potential of solder group and laser weld group in Pontor MPF and no differences between as cast and laser weld group (p>0.05). In Jel-Bios 10 and Wirobond, there was no difference of corrosion potential according to joining methods(p>0.05). 2. In all tested alloys, the amount of released metallic ion was greatest in the solder group(p<0.05). There was no difference between as cast group and laser weld group in Jel-Bios 10 and Wirobond(p>0.05). 3. In scanning electron microscopic examination. except soldered Wiron 99 specimens, it is impossible to discriminate the corrosive property of solder and laser weld. 4. Under the this experimental circumstances, laser weld appears superior to the solder when corrosion is considered.

전자제품에서 사용되던 Sn-Pb계 솔더합금은 RoHS, WEEE, REACH 등의 환경규제에 의해 무연솔더합금(Pb free solder alloy)으로 빠르게 대체되고 있다. 그 중에서도 Sn58%Bi(in wt.%) 합금은 융점이 낮고 Sn-Pb계 합금에 비해 기계적특성이 우수하여, 전자제품 솔더합금으로 사용하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 Sn58%Bi 솔더합금은 구성 원소인 Bi의 취성으로 인해 기계적인 신뢰성이 저하되는 문제를 개선할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 다양한 함량의 Sn-MWCNT (multiwalled carbon nanotube) 입자를 첨가한 Sn58%Bi 복합솔더를 제조한 후, OSP처리된 FR-4 기판 및 FR-4 컴포넌트를 리플로우(reflow) 횟수를 1회부터 7회까지 진행하였다. 접합시편의 접합강도 및 파괴에너지는 전단시험(die shear test)을 통해 측정하였고, 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscope, SEM)으로 미세조직 및 파괴모드를 분석하였다. Sn-MWCNT 첨가에 의해 Sn58%Bi 복합솔더 접합부에서 조직 미세화가 관찰되었고, 함량이 0.1 wt.%일때 접합강도와 파괴에너지는 각각 20.4%, 15.4% 만큼 증가하였다. 또한 파단면에서 연성파괴(ductile failure) 영역이 관찰되었으며, F-x(force-displacement to failure) 그래프를 통해 Sn-MWCNT의 첨가가 복합솔더의 연성(ductility)을 증가시킨 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The solder is any of various fusible alloys, usually tin and lead, used to join metallic parts that provide the contact between the chip package and the printed circuit board. Solder plays an important role of electrical signals to communicate between the two components. In this study, two kinds of Ag-free solder as sample is made to conduct the thermal shock test and the high humidity temperature test. Low resistance is measured to estimate crack size of solder, using daisy chain. The low speed shear test is also performed to analyze strength of solder. The appropriate degradation model is estimated using the result data. Depending on the composition of solder, lifetime estimation is conducted by adopted degradation model. The lifetime estimated two kinds of Ag-free solder is compared with expected lifetime of Sn-Ag-Cu solder. The result is that both Ag-free composition are more reliable than Sn-Ag-Cu solder.

지금 까지 전자패키지 접합에 사용되어온 Sn/37Pb 솔더는 낮은 용융온도와 우수한 물리적 특성, 그리고 저렴한 가격 등으로 널리 사용되었다. 그러나 납의 독성으로 인한 환경문제와 인체 유해성이 문제화되면서 이를 대체할 무연솔더의 요구가 시급한 실정이다. 또한 제품의 소형화에 따른 접합부의 미세화로 인한 접합부신뢰성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 Sn/37Pb 솔더를 사용하여 제품에 사용되고 있는 48 $\mu$BGA 패키지를 사용하여 Sn/Ag 계열 의 두 무연솔더인 Sn/3.5Ag/0.75Cu와 Sn/2.0Ag/0.5Cu/2.0Bi를 접합하여 장기신뢰성을 시효처리를 통하여 제시하였다. 시효처리는 $130^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $170^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 각각 300, 600, 900 시간동안 하였으며, 시효처리에 따른 전단강도와 각 솔더의 활성화에너지를 구하여 Sn/37Pb 솔더와 비교하였다. 두 무연솔더의 시효강도는 Sn/37Pb 솔더 보다 우수하였으며, 시효처리에 따라 형성된 솔더내부의 금속간화합물의 형상으로부터 균열의 성장과 형성에 대하여 논하였다. 이런 실험결과들로부터 두 무연솔더의 장기신뢰성 측면에서 대체가능성을 제시하였다.

This paper reviews our recent research works on the interconnection technologies in electronic packaging and assembly. At the aspect of advanced joining methods, laser-ultrasonic fluxless soldering technology was proposed. The characteristic of this technology is that the oxide film was removed through the vibration excitated by high frequency laser change in the molten solder droplet. Application researches of laser soldering technology on solder bumping of BGA packages were carried out. Furthermore, interfacial reaction between SnPb eutectic solder and Au/Ni/Cu pad during laser reflow was analyzed. At the aspect of soldered joints' reliability, the system for predicting and analyzing SMT solder joint shape and reliability(PSAR) has been designed. Optimization design method of soldered joints' structure was brought forward after the investigation of fatigue failure of RC chip devices and BGA packages under temperature cyclic conditions with FEM analysis and experimental study. At the aspect of solder alloy design, alloy design method based on quantum was proposed. The macroproperties such as melting point, wettability and strength were described by the electron parameters. In this way, a great deal of the experimental investigations was replaced, so as to realize the design and research of any kinds of solder alloys with low cost and high efficiency.

Interfacial reaction and mechanical properties between Sn-Zn-X ternary alloys(X : 3wt.%In, 4wt.%Bi) and Cu-substrate were studied. Cu/solder joints were subjected to aging treatments for up to 50days to see interfacial reaction at $100^{\circ}C$ and then were examined changes of microstructure and interfacial compound by optical microscopy, SEM and EDS. Cu/solder joints were aged to 30days and then loaded to failure at cross head speed of 0.3 mm $min^{-1}$ to measure tensile strength. According to the results of the solderability test, additions of In and Bi in the Sn-9wt.%Zn solder improve the wetting characteristics of the alloy and lower the melting temperature. Through the EDS and XRD analysis of Cu/Sn-9wt.%Zn solder joint, it was concluded that the intermetallic compound was the ${\gamma}-Cu_5Zn_8$ phase. Cu-Zn intermetallics at Cu/solder interfaces played an important role in both the microstructure evolution and failure of solder joints. Cu/solder joint strength was decreased by aging treatment, and those phenomenon was closely related to the thickening of intermetallic layer at Cu/solder joints.
