Lead-Free Solders

Materials Reliability for Electronics

520 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Providing a viable alternative to lead-based solders is a major research thrust for the electrical and electronics industries - whilst mechanically compliant lead-based solders have been widely used in the electronic interconnects, the risks to human health and to the environment are too great to allow continued widescale usage. Lead-free Solders: Materials Reliability for Electronics chronicles the search for reliable drop-in lead-free alternatives and covers: - Phase diagrams and alloy development - Effect of minor alloying additions - Composite approaches including nanoscale reinforcements - Mechanical issues affecting reliability - Reliability under impact loading - Thermomechanical fatigue - Chemical issues affecting reliability - Whisker growth - Electromigration - Thermomigration Presenting a comprehensive understanding of the current state of lead-free electronic interconnects research, this book approaches the ongoing research from fundamental, applied and manufacturing perspectives to provide a balanced view of the progress made and the requirements which still have to be met.
