Abstract :
Sn-Ag/Au/Ni-P/Cu, Sn-Ag-Cu/Au/Ni-P/Cu, Sn-Ag-Bi/Au/Ni-P/Cu diffusion couples were prepared and subjected to solid stage aging at temp 170°C for 45 days. The intermetallic compound (IMC) formed at the interface of solder/substrate were characterised using SEM and their mechanical properties were measured at different strain state by using instrumented nanoindentation technique. The hardness and Young´s modulus of different IMCs formed during reflow and aging were calculated from their load-displacement data. The deformation mechanisms operating at the small length scales of IMCs has been studied in the present work.
