There are several popular SnAgCu compositions, including Sn(3.9±0.2)Ag(0.6±0.2)Cu, recommended by NEMI, Sn3Ag0.5Cu, recommended by Senju, and the AIM CASTIN 之Sn2.5Ag0.8Cu0.5Sb. At present, relatively fewer activities are undertaken by researchers worldwide to develop another solder family to replace the PbSn eutectic solder. Instead, the current main research thrust in lead-free solder alloy development is on enhancing or fine-tuning the various properties of SnAgCu through adding minor alloying elements. In 2002, our research group first showed that Ni could substantially hinder the Cu3Sn growth during soldering as well as during the following solid-state aging. We later also showed that Fe and Co additions had similar effects. More importantly, additions as minute as 100 ppm (0.01 wt. %) was proven to be effective. As the Cu3Sn growth had been linked to the formation of micro voids, which in turn increased the potential for brittle interfacial fracture. Recently, it was indeed shown by research group from TI that drop test performance decreased with thickening of the Cu3Sn layer. The formation of the micro voids with the growth of Cu3Sn had been identified in both the reaction of SnAgCu and Cu and eutectic PbSn with Cu. This suggested that the root cause for the formation of these micro voids is the binary reaction between Sn and Cu. Accordingly, the Ni addition to solders offers the potential benefit of raising solder joint reliability through decreasing the amount of the micro voids. The key objectives of this study are to examine the effects of micro alloy additions on the interfacial reactions between the solders and the Cu substrate, and to understand the fundamental mechanism for such effects. The effects of alloy additions on the mechanical properties of the solder joints will also be assessed. The alloy elements to be investigated include Fe, Co, Ni and Cu. (Here we view Cu in SnAgCu as an alloying element.) These objectives are to be achieved in three years. In the first year, the objective is to establish an understanding on the effects of different levels of alloy additions on the interfacial reactions during the reflow as well as during the aging stage. The underlying mechanism will be explored. In the second year, the solder volume effect on the reactions studied during the first year will be investigated. We would like to know whether different solder volumes will change the results we obtained in the first year. In the third year, the effect of micro alloy additions on the mechanical response of the solder joints will be evaluated. The accomplishment of the stated objectives of this study will provide the community the detailed fundamental kinetic data that are critical in designing more reliable electronic products.銲料合金添加柯氏孔洞界面反應solderalloy additionKirkendall voidsinterfacial reaction微量元素對微系統接點介面反應之影響
