Abstract:Nanopastes based on noble metals for low temperature bonding are currently of great interest. We have developed Ag nanowire and nanoplate composite paste. Copper-copper joining has been achieved using solid state sintering of nanopastes. We show that an enhanced bonding strength can be achieved by integrating Ag nanoplates into Ag nanowire pastes. Ag nanowire and nanoplate composite pastes are capable of being a low-temperature interconnect material potentially for interconnection in lead-free microcircuits, f… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
