Abstract

As of today, several lead-free soldering pastes have been qualified for currently used soldering process. Regarding the new potential of laser-assisted soldering processes, the behaviour of the SnAgCu soldering paste requires, however, new investigations. In the first part of this study, the specific temperature profile of a laser soldering process is investigated using a high power diode laser (HPDL). These experimental results are compared to a thermal simulation developed for this specific application. The second part of this work deals with the diffusion of the tin-based filler material through the nickel barrier using the information extracted from the temperature simulations.
