Abstract:
With a body-centered tetragonal crystal structure, Sn grains were demonstrated to have highly anisotropic behaviors in various properties. The electromigration behavior of lead-free solder was impacted by the grain orientations. In this paper, the angle between the c-axis and the electron flow direction in composite solder joints (angle theta) was proven to be an important factor during electromigration. The effects of angle theta on the electromigration of composite solder joints were investigated in this paper. Cu particle-reinforced Sn3.5Ag solder joints were stressed under a current density of 10(4) A/cm(2) at room temperature. After 336 h current stressing time, different electromigration phenomena occurred at the two sides of the grain boundary in the composite solder joint which contained two Sn grains with different angle theta. The Sn grains with the larger angle theta had a smaller growth rate of Cu6Sn5. In addition, a composite solder joint with a single Sn grain was set as the contrast and its angle theta was smaller than that of the composite solder joint with two Sn grains. The growth rate of Cu6Sn5 in the composite solder joint with a single grain was faster than that of the composite solder joint with two Sn grains.
