I think the most useful thing I learned from chemistry in college was cleanliness. The first day of chem. lab we were asked to fill our beakers with.....
Calculating the thermal conductivity of an alloy is not done by taking an average (or weighted average) of its elemental constituents. When two metals...
As an engineer in the semiconductor industry, there is always the possibility for you to travel to another country to troubleshoot a problem on a line...
The typical extreme device needs an advanced thermal interface material to keep the interface cool while the device generates extreme amounts of heat....
Time is precious, and some alloys take their precious time to form intermetallics. For lower melting point alloys, quick wetting doesn’t mean an...

Unquestionably one of the largest technology drivers in the last decade, the cell phone continues to challenge our industry by never being quite good ...
The most common metal thermal interface materials are made from indium alloys which melt between 100C to 200C. Some power devices I have come across d...
Due to the limitations of flux, there is bottom end temperature where traditional solder/flux bonding ends. The lowest temperature I have experienced ...
Okay, this has no use for semiconductor packaging that I know of, but it is a neat trick that I discovered in the lab a couple days ago. ......
With only 24 hours to answer a customer regarding a strange flux / alloy / surface finish / temperature compatibility, we had no time to have an exoti...
