Abstract

Air gap such as disbond and crack can be successfully detected by ultrasonic testing. But imperfect interface evaluation is still a challenge. The challenge arises from the uncertainty of formation mechanism, boundary condition and acoustical response. In the paper, samples of structure silicon/adhesive/lead-frame, typical in IC packaging, are fabricated with two adesives, degraded through thermo cycling, examined by acoustical waveform and C-imaging, and compared to the measured optical microscopy image and the measured failure shear strength.
