Effect of Bi element on microstructure, strength and failure mechanism of Sn-Cu-In solder alloy
In this paper, the changes of the microstructure, wettability, and mechanical properties, of the Sn-0.5Cu-3In solder alloy were studied after adding 0.3–0.7 wt% Bi. The addition of Bi to Sn-0.5Cu-3In solder alloy resulted in changes to the microstructure, with a decrease in grain size and an increase in uniformity. The β-Sn phase size also decreased, and the distribution of intermetallic compounds became denser. When the amount of Bi element added is less than 0.5 wt%, the impact performance of the solder alloy changes little, and the impact work reaches a maximum of 62.2 J when 0.5 wt% Bi is added. The shear test results of the solder joints show that the addition of Bi element effectively improves the reliability of the solder joints, and the shear strength reaches a maximum value of 46.8 MPa at the addition of 0.5 wt% of Bi element. This is because the Bi and β-Sn forms a solid solution, resulting in solid solution strengthening. And the Bi element refines the grains of the solder alloy, so the shear strength of the solder joint is significantly improved.
期刊介绍:
Microelectronics Reliability, is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results and related information on the reliability of microelectronic devices, circuits and systems, from materials, process and manufacturing, to design, testing and operation. The coverage of the journal includes the following topics: measurement, understanding and analysis; evaluation and prediction; modelling and simulation; methodologies and mitigation. Papers which combine reliability with other important areas of microelectronics engineering, such as design, fabrication, integration, testing, and field operation will also be welcome, and practical papers reporting case studies in the field and specific application domains are particularly encouraged.
Most accepted papers will be published as Research Papers, describing significant advances and completed work. Papers reviewing important developing topics of general interest may be accepted for publication as Review Papers. Urgent communications of a more preliminary nature and short reports on completed practical work of current interest may be considered for publication as Research Notes. All contributions are subject to peer review by leading experts in the field.
