A new approach for fracture characterization of a particular case study on silicon die crack is presented. It consists of four phases -visual inspection, molecular dynamics, finite element method and experiment. This work aims to use these techniques to investigate and provide a theoretical explanation and analysis of the physical failure modes and mechanisms involved, from the molecular to package level.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
