In this paper a simulation is presented which tracks photons through complex material systems. Besides the usual Compton and Rayleigh scattering that is covered in high energy radiography simulations the presented model considers Bragg-Laue diffraction. The implementation bases on a Monte Carlo code to account for the scattering during radiography. In this paper first results of the simulation are...
The rapid diversification in microelectronics forebodes more complex system integration, be it for denser function integration or a span of dimensions between various technologies. Products may include more features, perform faster and be cheaper. With these trends the amount of material layers is increasing. This challenges development to a faster rating of material pairings. Delamination is a major...
As we face higher numbers of material layers in the increasingly complex Microsystems, the rating of layers reliability has to keep pace. Fracture mechanical descriptions are a big qualitative improvement when using simulation for design and reliability support, especially when looking at layer delamination. In order to simulate the interfacial fracture we urgently need to find empirical parameters,...
Interfacial delamination has become one of the key reliability issues in the microelectronics of portable devices and therefore is getting more and more attention. The analysis of delamination of a laminate structure with a crack along the interface is central to the characterization of interfacial toughness. Due to the mismatch in mechanical properties of the materials adjacent to the interface and...
Interfacial adhesion between the Epoxy Molding Compound (EMC) and the copper-based leadframe is one of the major concerns in the qualification of plastic packages. Since the conventional shear testing methods used in industry do not consider the residual stresses in the shear samples, they are only used as a qualitative testing method for the EMC qualifications. However, since these tests are based...
