The study of the reliability of the through silicon via and of most critical areas for the emergence of failure remains a major concern. This paper deals with the variation of stress and strain induced in a through silicon via. It exhibits different recommendations to improve the reliability through a screening of influential parameters. These studies are focused on a single Through Silicon Via (TSV). The stress and strain induced in a TSV depends on different materials and geometrical parameters. Simulation results of accumulated stress and plastic strain show that the interface between copper and silicon is an indicator for a potential failure such as delamination and die cracking. The stress in the TSV also depends on the variation of copper filling, the size of holes and the thickness of wafers. Increasing via diameter increases the stress in the TSV and the effect of thermal expansion mismatch between copper, silicon and silica.","PeriodicalId":152004,"journal":{"name":"2010 11th International Thermal, Mechanical & Multi-Physics Simulation, and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131062096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, LED has attracted many industries in the research and design of their products. However, its low electro-optical conversion efficiency causes redundant heat leading to increased junction temperature and decreased LED luminosity. In this research, a detailed finite element method (FEM) model of a LED module with a proper estimated thermal power and boundary conditions is established using an ANSYS® finite element analysis software. Electrical test method (ETM) and thermocouple measurement are utilized to estimate junction temperature and heat sink temperature, as well as to validate the simulation results. Results from simulation agree with experiment results at a 5% deviation. In the life test of high-power LED modules, the six tested devices had different junction temperatures were conducted in this experiment. Luminosity variations are measured by the integral sphere measurement system. Experiment results show different junction temperatures will influence the light degradation mode. Therefore, it is important to predict and control the junction temperature to improve the LED performance. A detailed FEM model of a LED module is established to simulate the junction temperature. Then, the light degradation mode of this LED module is predicted by the simulation result. This method could rapidly predict the light degradation mode of high power LED lighting modules.","PeriodicalId":152004,"journal":{"name":"2010 11th International Thermal, Mechanical & Multi-Physics Simulation, and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132891532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we are interested in the bulge test technique in order to extract the mechanical properties of square shaped membranes. First, a FEM model has been realized with ABAQUS software. Then, an iterative algorithm has been developed and implemented in Matlab, it controls and optimizes the Finite Element simulation parameters. Secondly, a bulge test bench was set up to carry out experimental measurements. The iterative algorithm was then interfaced with the Abaqus software solver and used to fit the simulation results with the experimental measurements. The investigation reveals that the algorithm converges faster and gives good results. Besides, the proposed method allows us to find the mechanical properties of any membrane geometry and thickness.","PeriodicalId":152004,"journal":{"name":"2010 11th International Thermal, Mechanical & Multi-Physics Simulation, and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133374585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, experimental characterizations of aging effect on the packaging materials and the package were carried out. DMA, TMA and TGA were used to measure the moduli, coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE), and the shrinkage induced by the aging process. Construction analysis was performed to examine the aging effect on the microstructure of the aged samples. It is found that aging has significant influence on the rubbery modulus, the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the strength. Oxidation is believed to be one of the main mechanisms for the degradation of the material properties. In order to reduce cost and time-to-market, thermo-mechanical virtual prototyping is applied to investigate effect of aging on the reliability of the high temperature application packages. An aging-dependent elastic model has been established to describe the material property evolution caused by aging. 3D Finite Element models were established to simulate the impact of the aging effect on the stress/strain of the package. Aging-induced shrinkage was also considered in the model, which was applied to the surface layer. The modeling results indicate that the aging of the compounds have a significant impact on the stress/strain status in the package. And the aging-induced shrinkage can not be simply neglected. Further research work on the experimental aspects and improvement of the aging-related material models are needed.","PeriodicalId":152004,"journal":{"name":"2010 11th International Thermal, Mechanical & Multi-Physics Simulation, and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114964822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Explicit FEM methodology enables the FEM analysis of this kind of highly dynamic scenario and is therefore used for the evaluation of the recorded data.
