Abstract | In this project, a novel solid-state bonding technique was developed to bond silicon (Si) chips to silver (Ag) layer plated on copper (Cu) substrates at temperature (260°C) far below Ag melting temperature of 961°C. This is possible because the gold (Au) layer coated on Si chip is made to contact the Ag atoms in atomic scale, thus allowing the Au atoms and Ag atoms to see each other and share electrons. This is our fundamental belief behind this technology. Ag is ductile and has low yield strength. It can deform to accommodate shear strain caused by large mismatch in coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between Si $(2.7×10^{−6}/°C)$ and Cu $(17×10^{−6}/°C).$ Ag has the highest electrical and thermal conductivities among all metals. It is the dream bonding medium. The question is how to bond Ag to other materials at temperature compatible to electronic packaging processes used in industries. In experiments, Si chips were coated with thin chromium (Cr) and Au layers and bonded to Ag layer plated on Cu substrates. The bonding was performed at 260°C with 1000psi static pressure in 90 mtorr vacuum environment to suppress oxidation. There is no molten phase involved during the bonding process. The resulting Ag joints are nearly perfect. The joints are strong and no voids are observed on Ag/Cu and Si/Ag bonding interfaces. This new solid-state bonding technology should be valuable in improving the thermal performance and reliability of high power devices. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
