Effects of Current Stressing on the Grain Structure and Mechanical Properties of Ag-Alloy Bonding Wires with Various Pd and Au Contents

Ag-alloy bonding wires containing various Pd and Au elements and traditional 4 N Au and Pd-coated 4 N Cu bonding wires were stressed with a current density of 1.23 × 105 A/cm2 in air. The amounts of annealing twins in the Ag-alloy wires were much higher than those in Au and Pd-coated Cu wires. The p...
