Devices fabricated to operate at a resonant frequency around 1 GHz are kept at varying times in vapor HF to remove the buried oxide, thereby changing the additional area etched. When devices designed with different geometries are present in the same wafer, the etching times differ, causing more undercuts than required in some of the devices. The Quality factor (Q) calculated from the measured transmission characteristics is used to derive a semi-analytical model for the additional loss due to undercut. The total quality factor of these devices is estimated after adding other loss mechanisms with the help of simulations and is validated with measured experimental data from our group as well as those found in the literature. The Q predicted using this model matches the measured data for state-of-the-art devices with different frequencies, dimensions, and materials.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133793674","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}

This is especially the case when undergoing reliability stress tests, such as cyclic loading. Characterization of the fatigue behavior of different materials in use is difficult challenging due to the limited access to samples that represent the actual packaging process. To address this challenges, a special fatigue bending test setup was used to generate crack growth characteristics for the interface between silicon tiles and non-conductive die-attach adhesive. A virtual crack closure technique was applied to calculate the strain energy release rate using the finite element method. Using the data, a fatigue crack growth rate curve was generated, to show the sub-critical crack propagation and determine the constants of Paris’ law. In addition, successfully conducted tests on samples to analyze the interface between injection-molded liquid crystal polymer to nonconductive adhesive and silicon tiles to Ag-filled conductive adhesive are presented in this work.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116776636","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 study, we demonstrate a multi-scale finite-element methodology to evaluate the in-plane distortions and expected overlay issues at critical processing steps of 3-D NAND device fabrication.

As the EMC is a microstructured composite material, the present computational study is aimed at understanding the influence of the EMC microstructure on the macroscopic mechanical and adhesive properties. Statistical Volume Elements (SVEs) are employed to this purpose, with a random arrangement of spherical particles of varying diameter to represent the filler volume fraction and size distribution. Mechanical properties of the neat polymeric matrix are obtained from experimental data relevant to the EMC through an inverse homogenization scheme, and the effect of a varying filler content is investigated. Finally, microstructural effects on the adhesion are studied with micro-scale models of the leadframe-matrix-filler system, accounting for the leadframe-matrix adhesion through a cohesive approach. The effects of filler content, substrate roughness, and intrinsic adhesive properties on the effective traction-separation law are assessed.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134588791","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}

The electro-mechanical actuation scheme constitutes a strongly coupled problem, which causes convergence problems due to the singular behavior of the electrostatic loads at small distances, as well as the highly non-linear mechanical contact. We overcome these issues by introducing problem-adapted regularization functions. These drastically improve the convergence behavior and the computation time, while at the same time causing only very small approximation errors. The resulting simulation model allows to gain a better understanding of the device operation, in particular to identify a failure condition of previously manufactured prototypes, where fluid is trapped in the pump chamber. Furthermore, it allows to quickly assess a design optimization that prevents this trapping and improves the overall device operation.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129151215","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}

Thus the simulation should be done in this format. Studies investigated PCBs thru a detailed representation [1]. However, no studies were found which simulate an array of PCBAs (Assembled PCBs). This is mainly due limitation of the hardware memory. The array of m2x modules in this work is not feasible to be calculation thru a usual modelling approach, even not through cloud computing. Thus this study investigates the use of substructures to overcome the hardware limitations. The array was manufactured and the simulation results were validated by using DIC (Digital Image Correlation). The predicted warpage of the novel modelling approach is well aligned with the measurement results.The establishment of the method for array format warpage assessment significantly decreases the development times for electronic packages, due to the mitigation of reliability risks and thus design cycles.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116335485","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}

The objective of this study is to investigate the warpage in Quad flat nolead (QFN) packages and establish a correlation between projection moiré experiments and finite element simulations. FE simulations demonstrates the importance of temperature dependent material models for the warpage simulations and shows how it affect the warpage results and shape of the warping package. With the viscoelastic material model for an EMC and temperature dependent CTE, simulations illustrate the true shape of the QFN package warpage, but simulations overestimate the absolute warpage values specifically at peak temperatures. It has been identified that the dominant factor behind package warpage is the CTE difference between EMC, copper lead frame and silicon die.

Firstly, the distribution of temperature along SWEAT structure during EM is obtained by using finite element (FE) simulation. The FE simulation results show that the temperature is almost uniformly distributed in the most region of narrow line in SWEAT structure, but temperature decreases rapidly at both sides of conductor. Accordingly, the temperature gradient in the narrow line of SWEAT structures is calculated. Then, we apply the obtained temperature and temperature gradient in the governing equation of EM in terms of atomic concentration. The numerical results show that the TM caused by temperature gradient causes the material depletion near both ends of conductor. At the same time, atoms diffuse from the middle region of conductor to both sides driven by the atomic concentration, causing the voids in middle of conductor.","PeriodicalId":425592,"journal":{"name":"2023 24th International Conference on Thermal, Mechanical and Multi-Physics Simulation and Experiments in Microelectronics and Microsystems (EuroSimE)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115332472","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}
