Creep behaviour of the ternary lead-free solder alloy, Sn-3.8wt.%Ag-0.7wt.%Cu

Electronic equipment is facing the challenge of both miniaturisation and the need to replace lead in interconnections. In service, interconnections generally fail by thermomechanical fatigue, and this behaviour is strongly affected by the creep process. This thesis examines the creep behaviour of a...
