Abstract :
The morphologies and microstructural characteristics of Al-wire and Au-wire-bonded to reactively-bonded Au and Ag metallization were studied by SEM and microprobe analyses. The mechanisms of wire bonding in each case and-the mechanisms of the metallization to substrate bonding are discussed.
