Materials for Advanced Packaging

Original chapters on bonding and joining techniques, nanopackaging and biomedical packaging, MEMS and wafer level chip scale packaging, and packaging materials such as lead-free solders, flip chip underfills, epoxy molding compounds, and conductive adhesives have all been updated with the latest developments in the field. This second edition continues to be the most comprehensive review on the developments in advanced electronic packaging technologies, with a focus on materials and processing. Recognized experts in the field contribute to 22 updated and new chapters that provide comprehensive coverage on various 3D package architectures, novel bonding and joining techniques, wire bonding, wafer thinning techniques, organic substrates, and novel approaches to make electrical interconnects between integrated circuit and substrates. Various chapters also address advances in several key packaging materials, including: Lead-free solders Flip chip underfills Epoxy molding compounds Conductive adhesives Die attach adhesives/films Thermal interface materials (TIMS) Materials for fabricating embedded passives including capacitors, inductors, and resistors Materials and processing aspects on wafer-level chip scale package (CSP) and MicroElectroMechanical system (MEMS) Contributors also review new and emerging technologies such as Light Emitting Diode (LED) packaging, as well as packaging for medical devices, flexible and printed electronics, interconnection technologies for solar cells, and nano-metal assisted chemical etching. This book is ideal for professionals in semiconductor fabrication, packaging of electronic and optoelectronic devices and solar cells and medical device packaging areas as well as graduate students studying materials science and engineering or electronic…
