Usage of heavy metal element (Pb, Hg and Cd etc.) in electronic devices have been restricted due to the environmental banning of the European Union, such as WEEE and RoHS. Therefore, it is needed to develop the Pb-free solder plated ribbon in photovoltaic (PV) module. This study described that degradation characteristics of PV module under damp heat (DH, $85^{\circ}C$ and 85% R.H.) condition test for 1,000 h. Solar cell ribbons were utilized to hot dipping plate with Pb-free solder alloys. Two types of Pb-free solder plated ribbons, Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC305) and Sn-48Bi-2Ag, and an electroless Sn-40Pb solder hot dipping plated ribbon as a reference sample were prepared to evaluate degradation characteristics. To detect the degradation of PV module with the eutectic and Pb-free solder plated ribbons, I-V curve, electro-luminescence (EL) and cross-sectional SEM analysis were carried out. DH test results show that the reason of maximum power (Pm) drop was mainly due to the decrease fill factor (FF). It was attributed to the crack or oxidation of interface between the cell and the ribbon. Among PV modules with the eutectic and Pb-free solder plated ribbon, the PV module with SAC305 ribbon relatively showed higher stability after DH test than the case of PV module with Sn-40Pb and Sn-48Bi-2Ag solder plated ribbons.

Sn-Pb solder has been used in automotive electronics for decades. However, recently, due to the environmental and health concerns, some international environmental organizations such as the end-of-life vehicle (ELV) enacted legislation banning of the Pb usage in automotive electronics. For this reason, many studies to develop and promote Pbfree soldering have been significantly reported. Meanwhile, because of flexibility and lightweight, flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs) have been increasingly used in automotive electronics for lightweight to improve fuel efficiency and space utilization. Although the properties of lead-free solders for automotive electronics have been widely studied, there is a lack of research on the reliability performance of the lead-free solder joint on FPCB under user conditions. This study reported the properties of solder joints between Pb-free solders such as Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu, Sn0.7Cu and Sn0.5Cu0.01Al (Si), and various FPCBs finished with organic solderability preservative (OSP) and electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG). To evaluate on joint properties and reliabilities with different solder compositions and surface-finishing materials, pull strength test, thermal shock test, and bending cycle test were performed and analyzed. After the bending cycle test of solder joint on OSP-finishing, the fractures were occurred in solder and the lifetime of Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu solder joint was the longest. Sn-Pb솔더는 그동안 자동차 전장품에서 많이 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 최근에 환경과 인체에 대한 유해성 때문에 end-of-life vehicle (ELV)과 같은 국제 환경 규제로 인하여 Pb의 사용이 금지되었다. 이러한 이유로 자동차 전장품을위한 Pb-free 솔더링에 관한 많은 연구들이 보고 되어 왔다. 한편, 자동차의 연료 효율성과 공간 활용을 위하여 유연성과경량의 특성을 가지는 플렉시블 기판이 자동차 전장품에 사용되고 있다. 자동차 전장품에 대한 Pb-free 솔더 접합부 특성에 관한 연구들이 많이 진행되었음에도 불구하고 자동차의 사용 환경을 고려한 플렉시블 기판 솔더 접합부에 대한 신뢰성 특성에 관한 연구는 아직 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 organic solderability preservative (OSP) 및 electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) 표면처리 된 플렉시블 기판 위 Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu, Sn0.7Cu, Sn0.5Cu0.01Al(Si) 세 가지 Pb-free 솔더 접합부에 대한 특성을 보고 하였다. 솔더 조성과 기판 표면처리에 따른 접합부의 특성 및 신뢰성을 비교 평가 하기 위하여 인장 강도 시험, 열 충격 시험과 반복 굽힘 시험을 진행 하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. OSP 표면처리 된 기판 접합부에 대한 반복 굽힘 시험 결과 세 종류의 솔더 접합부 모두 파괴는 솔더 내부에서 일어 났으며 Sn3.0Ag0.5Cu 솔더의 접합부에서 반복 굽힘 수명이 가장 길게 나타났다.

최근까지, 전자제품에 사용되는 솔더는 납성분이 남아 있으며, 전자부품 및 시스템의 무연 (Pbfree) 솔더에 대한 관심은 반도체 및 전자산업에서 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서 사용된 솔더접합부는 Sn-37Pb, Sn-4Ag 및 Sn-4Ag-0.5Cu / Ni 기판 이다. 인공시효처리는 150℃에서 각각 0hr, 100hr, 200hr, 400hr, 600hr 그리고 1000hr 동안 수행되었으며, SP 시험을 이용해 30℃와 50℃에서 접합강도를 평가했다. 전단강도는 인공시효시간과 온도가 증가함에 따라 전반적으로 감소하였다. 무연솔더는 Sn-37Pb 보다 총파괴 에너지가 높았으며, Sn-4Ag-0.5Cu/Ni 접합부는 고온에서 기계적 물성치가 가장 우수하였다. Thus far, solders used in electronics remain lead-based. Pb―free solutions in electronic components and systems are receiving increased attention in the semiconductor and electronics industries. Pb―free materials currently in used are Sn-37Pb, Sn-4Ag and Sn-4Ag-0.5Cu/ Ni plate joints. In this study, solder alloys were used at high temperatures for artificial aging processing that was performed at 150℃ for 0hr, 100hr, 200hr, 400hr, 600hr and 1000hr. The SP test was conducted at 30℃ and 50℃. As a result, the maximum shear strength of all the specimens decreased with the increase in artificial aging time and temperature of the SP test. In addition, Pb-free solders showed higher total fracture energy compared with Sn-37Pb at high temperatures. The mechanical properties of Sn-4Ag-0.5Cu solder/Ni plate joints remained in excellent conditions in electronic parking systems at high temperatures.

Jeong-Wook Jang,Jun-Ho Choi 한국화재소방학회 2022 International Journal of Fire Science and Engineer Vol.36 No.1

A recent battery fire accident in a power plant has drawn attention to fire safety management. The lithium-ion battery, the most widely used among secondary batteries, has a high energy density with a high risk of ignition, owing to shock, overheating, discharging, and overcurrent. Installing batteries in a hazardous area inside a power plant increases the risk of a fire. Therefore, there is a need to construct a facility capable of monitoring the state of the managed area without using a battery. Therefore, the aim of this study is to develop a self-powered wireless temperature sensor network using Pb-free piezoelectric energy-harvesting technology. The developed harvester consisted of a Pb-free piezoelectric element produced using Ba0.9Ca0.1Ti0.93Zr0.07O3 + 0 .3 m ol % CuO ( BCTZ0.3C) ceramic. When the Pb-free piezoelectric energy harvester was operated for 15 s, power to stably operate the wireless sensor network could be obtained, sufficient to transmit the temperature measured once every 1.2 s to the wireless transmitter.

김성범,유진,손윤철,Kim S. B.,Yu Jin,Sohn Y. C. 한국마이크로전자및패키징학회 2005 마이크로전자 및 패키징학회지 Vol.12 No.1

전세계 전자패키지 산업에서 납(Pb) 사용에 대한 환경규제 움직임이 본격화되고 있어 새로운 무연솔더의 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 게다가 무연솔더의 신뢰성에 대한정보가 아직까지 많이 부족한 실정이다 무연솔더의 신뢰성에 영향을 줄수 있는 것 중의 하나가 Sn pest라고 알려진 동소체 변태이다. Sn pest가 형성될 때 동반되는 부피의 증가는 솔더 조인트의 신뢰성을 저하시킨다. 이미 보고된 바에 따르면, Sn 고용도가 있는 원소(Pb, Bi, Sb)들을 첨가시킬 경우 Sn pest가 효과적으로 억제된다. 그러나 Sn pest를 억제하는 합금에 대한 기계적인 특성에 연구가 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 Sn과 Sn-0.7Cu를 기반으로 하여 Bi, Sb을 첨가한 솔더 합금을 사용하여 lap shear크리프 실험을 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 합금들의 변형율은 전체적으로 Sn-3.5Ag를 기반으로 하는 합금들보다 높았다. 파괴까지 이르는 변형량은 Sn-0.5Bi가 가장 크고 Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb 합금이 가장 작았는데 이러한 경향은 Sn-0.5Bi 합금의 파단면에 Sn globules이 길게 늘어나 있고 Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb 합금에서는 더 짧은 Sn globules 이 관찰되는 결과와 일치하였다. Worldwide movement for prohibition of Pb usage drives imminent implementation of Pb-free solders in microelectronic packaging industry. Reliability information of Pb-free solders has not been completely constructed yet. One of the potential reliability concerns of Pb-free solders is allotropic transformation of Sn known as tin pest. Volume increase during the formation of tin pest could deteriorate the reliability of solder joints. It was also reported that the addition of soluble elements (i.e. Pb, Bi, and Sb) into Sn can effectively suppress the tin pest. However, the mechanical properties of the tin pest resistant alloys have not been studied in detail. In this study, lap shear creep test was conducted with Sn and Sn-0.7Cu based solder alloys doped with minor amount of Bi or Sb. Shear strain rates of the alloy were generally higher than those of Sn-3.5Ag based alloys. Rupture strains and corresponding Monkman- Grant products were largest for Sn-0.5Bi alloy and smallest for Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb alloy. Rupture surface Sn-0.5Bi alloy showed highly elongated $\beta$-Sn globules necked to rupture by shear stresses, while elongation of $\beta$-Sn globules of Sn-0.7Cu-0.5Sb alloy was relatively smaller.

조성근(Seong-Keun Cho),양성모(Sung-Mo Yang),유효선(Hyo-Sun Yu) 한국생산제조학회 2011 한국생산제조학회지 Vol.20 No.2

UBM(Under Bump Metallurgy) is very important for successful realization of Flip-Chip technology. In this study, it is investigated the interfacial reactions between various Sn-Ag solder alloys and Ni-P/Au UBM and Cu plate finish. It is also evaluated the shear strength by using the micro shear-punch test method for Sn-37Pb alloy, binary and ternary alloys of environment-friendly Pb-free solder alloys which are applied in the electronic packages. In terms of interfacial microstructure, the Pb-free solder joints have thicker IMCs than the Sn-Pb solder joints. The thickness of IMC is related to Reflow time. The IMC has been observed to grow with the increase in Reflow time. As a result of the shear test, in case of Max. shear strength, Pb-free solder showed the highest strength value and Sn-37Pb showed the lowest strength value to be generally condition of Reflow time.

이순재,정재필,Lee, Soon-Jae,Jung, Jae-Pil 한국마이크로전자및패키징학회 2015 마이크로전자 및 패키징학회지 Vol.22 No.3

In this study, properties of Pb-free solders for automotive electronics parts were discussed. Lead-free solders for electronics became important after RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances) to avoid environmental pollution. Also the growing electronic rate in automotive parts and ELV (End-of Life Vehicles) make Pb-free solder for automotive electronics to be inevitable trend. Definitely, Pb-free solder for automotive electronics should have good wettability, basic strength, but need more reliability than other solders, since it has harsh condition like high temperature, humidity and engine vibration. Thus, shear strength test, thermal shock, drop test and many others are needed to ensure the high reliability. This study describes the properties and requirements of Pb-free solders for automotive electronics.
