본 실험에서는 Ag 층을 이용한 무 플럭스 접합 공정을 개발하였으며 Ag의 유무에 따른 효과를 관찰하기 위해 In ($10{\mu}m$)과 Sn ($10{\mu}m$)솔더 및 Ag (100 nm)/In과 Ag/Sn 솔더를 thermal evaporation 방법으로 하부 금속층 위에 형성하였다. 접합부의 접촉저항과 전단 하중을 측정하기 위해 쿠폰시편을 제조하였으며 이리한 쿠폰시편은 $130^{\circ}C$에서 0.8, 1.6, 3.2 MPa의 접합압력을 가하여 30초간 접합을 실시하였다. 전단하중과 4단자 저항측정법을 이용하여 접합부의 특성을 분석하였으며 주사전자현미경(Scanning Electron Microscope), EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectrometry)과 X-ray mapping을 통해 접합부를 관찰하였다. 전단하중 측정 결과 0.8 MPa에서는 In-Sn 솔더의 접합이 이루어지지 않았으며 접합압력이 증가해도 Ag/In-Ag/Sn 시편의 전단하중 측정값이 In-Sn 시편에 비해 높게 나타났다. 접합부의 저항감은 $2-4\;m{\Omega}$을 나타내었으며 접합압력이 증가할수록 In-Sn 혼합층이 더 많이 관찰되었다.

Paradigm shift to 3-D chip stacking in electronic packaging has induced a lot of integration challenges due to the reduction in wafer thickness and pitch size. This study presents a hybrid bonding technology by self-alignment effect in order to improve the flip chip bonding accuracy with ultra-thin wafer. Optimization of Cu pillar bump formation and evaluation of various factors on self-alignment effect was performed. As a result, highly-improved bonding accuracy of thin wafer with a $50{\mu}m$ of thickness was achieved without solder bridging or bump misalignment by applying reflow process after thermo-compression bonding process. Reflow process caused the inherently-misaligned micro-bump to be aligned due to the interface tension between Si die and solder bump. Control of solder bump volume with respect to the chip dimension was the critical factor for self-alignment effect. This study indicated that bump design for 3D packaging could be tuned for the improvement of micro-bonding quality.

The technology to inspect and measure an inner structure of micro parts has become an important tool in the semi-conductor industrial field with the development of automation and precision manufacturing. Especially, the inspection skill on the inside of highly integrated electronic device becomes a key role in detecting defects of a completely assembled product. X-ray inspection technology has been focused as a main method to inspect the inside structure. However, there has been insufficient research done on the customized inspection technology for the flip-chip assembly due to the interior connecting part of flip chip which connects the die and PCB electrically through balls positioned on the die. In this study, therefore, it is implemented to detect shape error of flip chip bonding without damaging chips using an x-ray inspection system. At this time, it is able to monitor the solder bump shape by introducing an edge-extracting algorithm (exponential approximation function) according to the attenuating characteristic and detect shape error compared with CAD data. Additionally, the bonding error of solder bumps is automatically detectable by acquiring numerical size information at the extracted solder bump edges.

This study focused on predicting the fatigue life of an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) power module for electric locomotives. The effects of different wiring technologies, including aluminum wires, copper wires, aluminum ribbons, and copper ribbons, on solder fatigue life were investigated to meet the high power requirement of the IGBT module. The module's temperature distribution and solder fatigue behavior were investigated through coupled electro-thermo-mechanical analysis based on the finite element method. The ribbons attained a chip junction temperature that was 30℃ lower than that attained with conventional round wires. The ribbons also exhibited a lower plastic strain in comparison with the wires. However, the difference in plastic strain and junction temperature among the different ribbon materials was relatively small. The ribbons also exhibited different crack propagation behaviors relative to the wires. For the wires, the cracks initiated at the outmost edge of the solder, whereas for the ribbons, the cracks grew in the solder layer beneath the ribbons. Comparison of fatigue failure areas indicated that ribbon bonding technology could substantially enhance the fatigue life of IGBT modules and be a potential candidate for high power modules.

NCA의 물성이 미세피치 Chip on glass (COG) 접합부의 신뢰성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. Si 위에 Sn을, 유리기판 위에 In을 열증발 방법으로 증착하고 lift-off 방법을 이용하여 $30{\mu}m$ 피치를 가지는 솔더범프를 형성하였으며 열압착 방법으로 $120^{\circ}C$에서 In 범프와 Sn 범프를 접합하였다. 접합할 때 세 종류의 Non conductive adhesive (NCA)를 적용하였다. 신뢰성은 $0^{\circ}C$와 $100^{\circ}C$ 사이로 열충격시험을 2000회까지 실시하여 평가하였다. 4단자 저항측정법을 이용하여 접합부의 저항을 측정하였다. 필러의 양이 증가할수록 열충격시험 후 접합부의 저항이 가장 적게 증가하여 신뢰성이 우수하였다. 필러의 양이 증가할수록 NCA의 열팽창이 작아지기 때문이다.

Au와 Sn을 순차적으로 도금한 Au/Sn 범프를 플립칩 본딩하여 Au-Sn 솔더 접속부를 형성 후, 미세구조와 접속저항을 분석하였다. $285^{\circ}C$에서 30초간 플립칩 본딩한 Au-Sn 솔더 접속부는 $Au_5Sn$+AuSn lamellar 구조로 이루어져 있으며, 이 시편을 $310^{\circ}C$에서 3분간 유지하여 2차 리플로우시 $Au_5Sn$+AuSn interlamellar spacing이 증가하였다. $285^{\circ}C$에서 30초간 플립칩 본딩한 Au-Sn 접속부는 15.6 $m{\Omega}$/bump의 평균 접속저항을 나타내었으며, 이 시편을 다시 $310^{\circ}C$에서 3분간 유지하여 2차 리플로우 한 Au-Sn 접속부는 15.0 $m{\Omega}$/bump의 평균 접속저항을 나타내었다.

A flip-chip bonding system using IR laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm was developed and associated process parameters were analyzed using Taguchi methods. An infrared laser beam is designed to transmit through a silicon chip and used for transferring laser energy directly to micro-bumps. This process has several advantages: minimized heat affect zone, fast bonding and good reliability in the microchip bonding interface. Approximately 50 % of the irradiated energy can be directly used for bonding the solder bumps with a few seconds of bonding time. A flip-chip with 120 solder bumps was used for this experiment and the composition of the solder bump was Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu. The main processing parameters for IR laser flip-chip bonding were laser power, scanning speed, a spot size and UBM thickness. Taguchi methods were applied for optimizing these four main processing parameters. The optimized bump shape and its shear force were modeled and the experimental results were compared with them. The analysis results indicate that the bump shape and its shear force are dominantly influenced by laser power and scanning speed over a laser spot size. In addition, various effects of processing parameters for IR laser flip-chip bonding are presented and discussed.

Recently, research and application for a power module have been actively studied according to the increasing demand for the production of vehicles, smartphones and semiconductor devices. The power modules based on the transient liquid phase (TLP) technology for bonding of power semiconductor devices have been introduced in this paper. The TLP bonding has been widely used in semiconductor packaging industry due to inhibiting conventional Pb-base solder by the regulation of end of life vehicle (ELV) and restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS). In TLP bonding, the melting temperature of a joint layer becomes higher than bonding temperature and it is cost-effective technology than conventional Ag sintering process. In this paper, a variety of TLP bonding technologies and their characteristics for bonding of power module have been described.
