Wafer bonding using Sn interlayer and silicon bond components with Ti/Ni/Cu metallization was achieved by ultrasonic bonding at ambient temperature for 4 s under 0.6 MPa. High-melting-point joint which fully consisted of Cu3Sn intermetallic compounds was formed with a high shear strength of 65.8 MPa and a low electrical resistivity of 67.3 μΩ · cm. Experimental results showed that ultrasonic vibration induced steep temperature rise at rubbing interface, melting solid solder, and sequent ultrasonic effects at the liquid Sn/solid Cu interface dominated the mechanism and kinetics of rapid formation of Cu3Sn joint.
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.
