This paper presents results of fracture tests on Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs). Fracture mechanical calculations were carried out with ANSYS in order to analyse the experimental values of fracture strength for the tested MLCCs. Subsequent metallographic analyses were used to get a precise picture of the origin and the propagation of the crack through the component.

Lumen decay of LEDs is affected by time, junction temperature and input current. In LED lamps, both temperature and input current vary with time due to driver's degradation and temperature change of lamps. This paper proposes a lumen decay prediction method which considers effects of operation time, temperature and current by taking the interaction of LED and driver performance into account. In particular, a lumen decay model for LED source with consideration of the ever changing current and temperature is developed and validated experimentally. Several scenarios are analyzed theoretically by applying different assumptions.

This work presents an optimization strategy towards extending the operational frequency range of piezoelectric MEMS energy harvesting devices. We propose to use coupled micromechanical resonators to enable efficient energy harvesting at multiple frequencies with a single device. The proposed design, obtained by optimization algorithms, exhibits closely spaced eigenfrequencies with equal power delivery.

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is an important branch of additive manufacturing ("3D printing") technologies. The SLS machines are processing powders so that they are selectively sintered by a CO2 or Nd:YAG laser beam. The SLS process was initially developed to produce polymer-based components. Then, SLS had a breakthrough toward the producing of structurally perfect parts directly from metal powders. The high intensity of the laser beam makes it possible to rapidly heat a small region, inducing a disequilibrium of the temperature distribution and large temperature gradients. The numerical simulation is important for the process of laser sintering since it tackles the comprehension of such local heat accumulation. This, in turn, drives the choice of the process parameters in accordance with the processed material characteristics and with the quality aimed for the final sintered product. In the present paper, we use our three-dimensional transient finite element model to study the SLS process applied to amorphous polycarbonate and titanium powders.

This article deals with the development of force actuator buttons for haptic feedback applications. Finite Element Method (FEM) models were used to design high performances piezoelectric actuators able to promote force restitution that can be sensed by a finger. We present first a comparison between analytical modeling and displacement measurement of cantilevers based on electroactive polymer (EAP) actuator. This calibration step leads to model optimization, through material data base precision. Then force buttons were studied by adjusting the ratio between actuator and membrane radius in order to obtain the largest force restitution, at least 50 mN/cm2. It has been shown that an actuator radius equal to 60% of the membrane radius exhibits the best performances. We also studied actuator stacking in order to increase the force restitution that can be promoted by a circular button. FEM models predict that a stack of 20 actuators is needed to match the aimed force restitution at 50V, however when the voltage is increased to 200V, only 5 actuators stacked are necessary.

We propose a method for in-situ measurements of the surface tension of solder joints on microelectronics chips. The method uses actual chips placed in an inert atmosphere, in a heating chamber with a transparent lid. A confocal microscopy probe is used to oberve the top of solder balls through the lid while a piezoelectric actuator induces vibrations in the system. The setup allows the measurement of the resonance frequencies of the balls by comparing the system's response to sweeps in excitation frequency, for temperatures below and above the liquidus temperature of the solder joints. A number of phenomena were observed, such as undercooling during solidification and continuous formation of surface oxydes.

Among the numerous ways to process 3D stacking of integrated circuits, a promising method is the use of Cu/SiO2 hybrid bonding, which enables simultaneous mechanical and electrical connections with an interconnection pitch limited only by photolithography resolution and alignment accuracy. In this work, we present a finite element model of the bonding of Cu/SiO2 patterned surfaces with the aim of identifying the main design and process parameters thought to affect the bonding quality, namely the pad size, shape and layout, dishing, and misalignment. We show that metal pad design induces local perturbations in the propagation of the bonding front and that the bonding quality is governed by the metal density, while pad shape, size and distribution are of little influence. This finding would allow to feed the design rules manual for hybrid bonding interconnects with drawing specifications. This analysis enables to identify the most influent factors and provide guidelines to improve bonding quality at room temperature and thereby help secure integration of 3D stacked IC products.

Until now, there has not yet been a standardized method for the LED module thermal resistance measurements. This directly affects the lifetime assessment of the LED modules. By testing and studying the temperature coefficient of the LED modules with different structures, it is found that the temperature coefficient of the LED module follows a linear relationship with voltage when an appropriate test current is applied. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of measuring the thermal resistance of the LED module as a whole. Furthermore, we propose a method to estimate the junction temperature of the LED module based on the thermal resistances of each of its individual LED and the module itself. This method provides an important basis for the junction temperature calculation in the assessment of the lifetimes of the LED module. However, since the LED module usually has a large surface, the uncertainties existing in the materials and fabricating process will result in a distributed temperature within the LED module. And in most cases, the first failure occurs in the chip with the highest junction temperature. Therefore, the next step of our research will focus on the evaluation of the maximum junction temperature of the LED module based on the proposed method.

Complex inertial Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) usually require the simultaneous motion of the masses in more than one direction and an overall linear behavior. Furthermore, since it is usually very difficult to actuate the device in all the required directions, complex spring configurations for the conversion of the motion are needed. Here we present possible solutions to this problem through auxetic structures. The goal of the work is to propose a new topology optimization procedure which can be used as a tool during the design phase of the optimal auxetic structure, that is completely compatible with the MEMS fabrication processes available so far and that allows the motion conversion in a MEMS device without entering the nonlinear regime.

Theoretical analyses on the thermo-mechanical behavior of power modules designed in a new buildup and interconnection technology based on silver sintering and electroplated copper interconnects have been made. The characteristic difference to other technologies can be seen in the replacement of bonding wires by planar copper interconnects and the high voltage applicability of the resulting modules. A high voltage and temperature resistant polymeric foil provides the insulation in this high voltage planar interconnect technology. Electrical connection is made by structured electro-deposited copper structures, which allow additional heat spreading from top of the dies. This interconnection technology is raising new questions concerning the constitutive behavior of the materials involved in the power stack as well as the closely linked questions concerning their thermo-mechanical reliability. Investigations on characteristics of dielectric materials and copper plated interconnects are reported. For the latter, a significant dependence on microstructure is seen. FE-analyses were made to study the thermal and mechanical loadings. Both passive and power cycling were investigated for a prototype converter module substrate designed by HVPT. Transient power cycling induced loading was studied using electric-thermal-mechanical coupling. Significant change in the potential failure modes of such an assembly are to be expected, in particular metallization delamination failure at different interfaces can occur.
