Intermetallic thickness and physical studies of Sn-3.5Ag-1.0Cu lead free solder with ni addition / Noor Asikin Ab Ghani

Due to the environmental and health concern, the use o f lead free solder has been introduced in 2000 by National Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (NEMI) to replace the tin-lead (Sn-Pb) solder. Among many lead free solders, the tin-silvercopper (Sn-3.5Ag-l.0Cu) is a potential replacement for Sn-...
