摘要
We investigated the effect of Ge additions (0.1-0.5 at.%) on properties of Sn(84)Zn(13)Bi(3) solder-alloys, specifically the anti-oxidation capability, electrical resistance, thermal expansion behavior, and mechanical strength The Sn-Zn-Bi-Ge alloys have a melting point around 197 C, and are not noticeably oxidized after soaking at 250 degrees C for 180 min under ambient air flow 100 ml/min Coefficient of thermal expansion, tunable between 10 and 17 ppm/degrees C by the Ge addition, matches those of various metals such as Cu, Ni or lead-frames, leading to low thermal stress. Electrical resistivity of Sn-Zn-Bi-Ge solder-alloys, 10-15 mu Omega cm, is much lower than that of Sn-37Pb solder The micro-Vickers hardness, up to 400 MPa with 0 5 at.% Ge addition, is 150% that of Ge-free Sn(84)Zn(13)Bi(3), or 300% that of Sn-37Pb solder. Moreover, it possesses better tensile strength, being 127% that of Ge-free Sn(84)Zn(13)Bi(3), and 190% that of Sn-37Pb solder. (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
