INTRODUCTION Health and environmental concerns in the electronic packaging industry regarding the use of lead-based alloys led to the search for lead-free substitute alloys. Previous studies have shown that Sn-based alloys such as Sn-3.Ag, Sn-.7Cu, and Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu exhibit promising mechanical properties 1 and can be considered as serious candidates to replace the Sn-Pb alloy. Nevertheless, more information is needed before joint life and reliability predictions can be made using these materials since brittle intermetallics that form are detrimental to the mechanical integrity of the solder joints. 2,3 This study provides information about the intermetallic layer formation and growth, between the Sn-3.Ag, Sn-.7Cu, Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu and Sn-9Zn alloys, and copper-plated substrates. 2. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE The solders alloys were Sn-3.Ag, Sn-.7Cu, Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu and Sn- 9Zn, and the substrates were Cu-plated printed circuit boards (PCB). The substrates were cut in pieces of 2.4 x 2.4 mm. (1x1 ). Prior to producing the joints, the s were cleaned with alkaline and acidic solutions in the case of Sn-3.Ag, Sn-.7Cu and Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu; and a commercial sulfuric acid based paste in the case of the Sn-9Zn alloy. This procedure removed the oxide layer and promoted wetting. The joints were cooled in air to room temperature. Then, they were subjected to thermal aging treatment for 2,, 2, hours
2 at 7,, and o C. Each sample was analyzed using light microscopy, SEM and EDS. 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Micrographs of the Cu/Solder interface at o C for hours in Figure 1 show the intermetallic compounds (IMCs),, and Ag 3 Sn. The first two were observed in three of the materials systems, Cu/Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu, Cu/Sn-3.Ag, and Cu/Sn-.7Cu. In the case of Cu/Sn-3.Ag few small particles of Ag 3 Sn can be observed at the /Sn-3.Ag interface 4. The /Solder interface is mostly irregular and in some areas developing into elongated needlelike and elongated scalloped structures growing far into the solder matrix. The total intermetallic layer thickness at o C, for hours in the four material systems were found to be the following: 13.3 µm for Cu/Sn-3.Ag, 13.6 µm for Cu/Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu, 14.1 µm for Cu/Sn-.7 Cu, and 19.1 µm for the Cu/Sn-9Zn alloy. The growth kinetics for the IMCs as a function of aging time and temperature was analyzed by measuring the thickness of the IMC layers, and a parabolic relationship was observed, Figure 2. The linear behavior of the data reminds diffusion-controlled growth mechanism. Using the intermetallics formed in the Cu/Sn-3.Ag system as example, the activation energies Q can be calculated for each of the two intermetallic compounds, Figure 3. The results for all other solder alloy systems are shown in table 1. The data are in agreement with results reported by other researchers. 3,4,

In the case of the Cu/Sn-9Zn system, the IMC is Cu Zn 8. The three intermetallic layers grow by thermal activation in a parabolic manner. If IMC formation were the sole criterion for determination of candidates for replacing the Sn-Pb alloys, the ranking would
5 be: Sn-3.Ag, Sn-3.2Ag-.8Cu, Sn-.7Cu and Sn-9Zn, being Sn-3.Ag the system that exhibited least IMC growth. It also seems to be more advantageous since the activation energy to promote IMC formation is the highest,.8 ev/atom. References 1. J. Madeni, S, Liu, T.
