Abstract
⺠In this study we observe ageing mechanisms of the metallisation layer deposited on the chips of power semiconductor devices. ⺠We also study the effect of aluminium metallisation degradation on electrical performances of a power transistor. ⺠The resistance of the metallization layer is measured during ageing process. ⺠Increase in the metallisation resistance is linked to the degradation of the aluminium layer.
