It is of importance for the reliability of lead-free and lead-bearing solder joints to have better understanding and control of the solder/metallization interactions during soldering. In the reactions between solders and Cu substrate, the formation of micro voids within the Cu3Sn layer had been report by many research groups. Because the Cu3Sn growth had been linked to the formation of micro voids,...
The objective of this study is to investigate the alloying effects of Fe, Co, and Ni on the interfacial reactions between solder and Cu. Emphasis is placed on a systematic comparison study on the effect of Fe, Co, and Ni additions. Solders with simultaneous Fe and Ni addition as well as simultaneous Co and Ni addition are also prepared in order to investigate whether there is any interaction between...
The solders used for this study are Sn2.5Ag0.8Cu doped with 0.03 wt.% Fe, Co, or Ni and 0, 0.005, 0.01, 0.06, or 0.1 wt.% Ni. Reaction conditions included multiple reflows for up to 10 times and solid-state aging at 160degC for up to 2000 hrs. In multiple reflow study, Cu6Sn5 was the only reaction product observed for all the different solders used. Reflows using the solder without doping produced...
