Abstract :
The characteristics of conductive particles in anisotropically conductive adhesives (ACA) were studied by optical microscopy observation and nano indenter measurements. The indentation measurement was performed at the particles in ACA joints using different bonding forces. The load-displacement curves and microhardness values are obtained, which indicate that the nano indenter could be used for quantitative estimation of the electrical and mechanical characteristics of conductive particles in ACAs
