2 Applications of heavy Al wire bonds in electronic devices Al thick wire bonds are used in high power semiconductor modules with high reliability demands and service life times up to 30 years. During their service life they are subjected to numerous thermal and mechanical loading cycles. Strength and stability of the bonding interface is one of the main factors influencing the quality of the devices.
3 Failure of Al wire bonds during the service Heel crack Wire Lift-off -Thermomechanical loading, electrical stress and vibrations lead to failure of wire bonds. - Standard reliability assessment procedures are power cycling, thermal cycling, high temperature storage, vibration tests etc. Wire burnout
4 Ultrasonic wire bonding Typical bonding parameters for Al thick wire bonds: US frequencies of 60 to 80 khz Ultrasonic power up to about 25 W bonding forces up to about 1 kgf bonding time: few milliseconds Using a bonding tool, the wire is pressed against the Al-pad and ultrasonic energy is applied. Surface contaminants and oxides are removed by vibration action of the bonding tool. Clean and freshmaterial surfaces come into intimate contact. Interface is formed as a result of diffusion bonding (solid state bonding). What is the mechanism of formation of the very thin and stable bonding interface in with a few milliseconds of reaction time?

19 Summary & Conclusion 1. The temperature dependent evolution of the microstructure of the bonding interface and the metallization layer of thick Al wire bonds onalsicu andalsi metallization were studied. 2. Micro-sections and fracture surface analysis revealed a certain percentage of non-bonded regions in the interface of all specimens. 3. Typical interfacial features were extremely fine grains of Al and Al2O3 in the range of few 100 nm to few nm, amorphous Al-oxide particles, voids and pores. A high density of dislocations loops was found within some of the Al grains. 4. Presence of nano-structured interfacial grains supports the mechanism of interface formation due to dynamic recrystallization facilitated by ultrasonic softening effect. 5. Presence of fine Al oxide crystallites might be an indication of occurrence of local high temperature (>~500 C) at the interface. 6. Temperature exposure and thermo-mechanical cycling leads to a strong grain growth in the Al wire and metallization layer but the extremely fine grained structure of the interface remains stable. 7. This investigation shows that the long time reliability of the wire bonds is not affected by the inhomogeneity of the bonding interface. Proper choice of the bonding parameters lead to formation of a strong interface. Presence of non-bonded areas do not affect the lifetime of the bonds if a sufficient bonding interface (load bearing area) has been formed.
