Abstract

대표적인 저온솔더인 Sn-58Bi에 Ru nanoparticles을 첨가하여 Sn-58Bi-xRu 복합솔더를 제작하고 Cu/OSP 및 ENIG 표면처리된 PCB 기판과 반응시켜 계면반응 및 솔더조인트 신뢰성을 분석하였다. Cu/OSP와의 반응에서 형성된 Cu6Sn5 IMC는 Ru 함량에 따른 두께 변화가 거의 없고 100hr aging 후에도 큰 변화없이 고속 전단시험시 솔더 내부로 연 성파괴가 발생하였다. ENIG 와의 반응시에는 Ru 함량이 증가함에 따라서 Ni3Sn4 IMC 두께가 감소하는 경향을 보였으 며 일부 시편에서 ENIG 특유의 취성파괴 현상이 발견되었다. Ru 원소는 계면 부근에서 발견되지 않아서 계면반응에 크 게 관여하지 않는 것으로 판단되며 주로 Bi phase와 함께 존재하는 것으로 분석되고 있는데 어떠한 형태로 두 원소가 공 존하고 있는지에 대해서는 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.
Sn-58Bi-xRu composite solders were prepared by adding Ru nanoparticles to Sn-58Bi, a typical lowtemperature solder, and the interfacial reaction and solder joint reliability were analyzed by reacting with Cu/OSP and ENIG surface treated PCB boards. The Cu6Sn5 IMC formed by the reaction with Cu/OSP had little change in thickness depending on the Ru content, and ductile fracture occurred inside the solder during the high-speed shear test without any significant change even after 100 hr aging. In reaction with ENIG, the Ni3Sn4 IMC thickness tended to decrease as the Ru content increased, and ENIG-specific brittle fracture was found in some specimens. Since Ru element is not found near the interface, it is judged not to be significantly involved in the interfacial reaction, and it is analyzed that it mainly exists together with the Bi phase.
