Part of a free 2 day presentation in Penang, Malaysia in 2011. Sponsored by the World Gold Council, London.
I have to apologise for the content. This was a short version of a more detailed course I give on bonding wire materials. Some of the content requires a reasonable understanding of solid state physics and chemistry and for attendees that don't have that understanding I go to great pains to discuss crystal chemistry and physics and spend a lot of time drawing on white boards and flip charts to explain things in more detail. The white board and flip chart stuff just can't be captured in the presentation because it's 'off the cuff', mainly because I always inform my audience that if there is something they don't understand I am more than willing to spend time to explain stuff because I want them to 'get it', at least to the extent that they can be inspired to go find out more about what I'm presenting.
This lecture provides an introduction to the metallurgy of precipitation hardening, with a presentation of the fundamental mechanisms involved and illustrations from alloys which form the basis for engineering alloys. The Al-Mg<sub>2</sub>Si system is discussed in some detail because of its commercial importance. The microstructural aspects of precipitation hardening are illustrated by examples, many of which were obtained by electron microscopy; an outline of the background to electron microscopy is given in an appendix. Familiarity with the subject matter covered in earlier lectures 1201, 1202 and 1203 is assumed.

Fan-Out and Embedded Die: Two promising Wafer/Panel-Level-Packaging technologies. What are the next steps for the growth?
Fan-Out Wafer Level Packaging is already in high-volume – but it’s about to grow even more strongly
Fan-Out Wafer Level Packaging (FOWLP) started volume commercialization in 2009/2010 and started promisingly, with initial push by Intel Mobile. However, it was limited to a narrow range of applications – essentially single die packages for cell phone baseband chips – reaching its limit in 2011. In 2012 big fab-less wireless/mobile players started slowly volume production after qualifying the technology...

Nondestructive Evaluation of Materials
Abstract
A “nondestructive evaluation of materials” method was simulated using an oscilloscope, pulse-receiver, and a piezoelectric transducer to generate a tension-compression and shear waves. The measure of the waves was then used to calculate: Young’s Modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson’s ratio. The study was performed on four specimens: 1020 cold rolled steel, 6061 –T651 aluminum, cartridge brass, sintered polycrystalline aluminum oxide and polycarbonate. The results of the testing show the effectiveness of nondestructive testing by the accuracy of the calculated Young’s Modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson’s ratio to that of the textbook.
Introduction
In many large processes it is important to manage the equipment without affecting its production output. The best way to analyze most fully functioning machines is to use nondestructive testing. In the process of an air compressor there air easy inspections that can be performed while the compressor is still online. Those are vibration analysis of the drive pulley, gearbox, and motor to verify the bearings are still intact. Another example would be to pressurize the system and perform a pressure test on the storage tank. These are only two examples of the many types of nondestructive testing that exist in industry today. This paper will focus directly on the use of another type of testing called ultrasonic testing.
Ultrasonic testing is utilizes the use of ultrasonic waves. The use of the combination of an oscilloscope, pulse-receiver, and a piezoelectric transducer allow the electronic pulse generated by the oscilloscope to be converted to a mechanical pulse or a vibration. The mechanical pulse is then converted back into an electric pulse and displays on the oscilloscope monitor. The pulses displayed are shear waves (s-waves) and tension –compression waves (p-waves). An s-wave travels at a right angle to the propagated wave direction, where a p-wave travels in the direction of the propagated wave direction. The waves are displayed over a time interval or the “time of flight” which is the time it takes the pulse to travel through an object and back to the receiver. The two waves interact with the molecular structure of the material, which based on the material properties dictates the speed of the wave. Therefore if a material were available in both a polycrystalline and single crystal structure the speeds of the p-wave would vary. This is due to the gaps that are in a polycrystalline structure. The gaps don’t allow for as direct of compression of atoms as that of the crystal structure. Which allows for a faster p-wave in the single crystal.
Experimental Procedure
Each of the four materials was first measured to find the thickness that the piezoelectric transducer would sit on. Then the density of each material was looked up in the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics. The test then began with by placing the ...
The main objective of this project is to be produce copper reinforced metal matrix composite (MMC) layers using micron sized AlN particles via friction stir processing (FSP) in order to enhance surface mechanical properties. Micro structural evaluation using Optical Microscopy (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) indicated that an increase in traverse speed and a decrease in rotational speed cause a reduction in the grain size of different groove width (0,0.4,0.8,1.2 mm) of stir zone (SZ) for the specimens friction stir processed (FSPed) without AlN particles. It was found that upon addition of AlN particles, wear properties were improved. This behavior was further supported by SEM images of wear surfaces. Results demonstrated that the micro composite produced by FSP exhibited enhanced wear resistance and higher average friction coefficient in comparison with pure copper. Tensile properties and fracture characteristics of the specimens FSPed with and without AlN particles and pure copper were also evaluated. According to the results, the MMC layer produced by FSP showed higher strength and lower elongation than pure copper while a remarkable elongation was observed for FSPed specimen without AlN particles and been greatly developed by the use of AlN.
Comparison of corrosion behaviour of commercial aluminium engine block and pi...msejjournal
The corrosion behavior of commercial aluminium alloy engine block and piston was investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution. The study was done by conventional gravimetric measurements and complemented by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray analyzer (EDX) investigations. The results obtained indicate that the alloys suffers a process of corrosion localized to the area surrounding the precipitates of the Al (Si, Mg) and Al-Mg, which resulted in hemispherical pits. No evidence was found of the formation of crystallographic pitting for exposure times up to 54 days. Gravimetric analysis confirmed that with varying exposure periods the weight loss of the alloys increases and the normal corrosion rate profile of an initial steep rise followed by subsequent fall were observed for both alloys. The rate of corrosion of piston was found to be lower than that of engine block due to presence of Ni and lower percentages of Fe in aluminium piston alloy.
Mechanism of Fracture in Friction Stir Processed Aluminium AlloyDr. Amarjeet Singh
Aluminium alloys are used for important
applications in reducing the weight of the component and
structure particularly associated with transport, marine,
and aerospace fields. Grain refinement by scandium (Sc)
addition can eliminate the casting defects and increase the
resistance to hot tearing for high strength aluminium alloys.
FSP for cast aluminium alloys have been focused and it has
great advantages including solid state microstructural
evolution, altering mechanical properties by optimizing
process parameters. These parameters are tool rotational
speeds (720, and 1000 rpm), traverse speeds (80, and 70
mm/min), and axial compressive force at 15 kN, etc. The
mechanical properties had been evaluated on FSPed
aluminium alloy with different microstructural conditions.
Fracture properties of aluminium alloys are very important
for industrial applications. Tensile and fracture toughness
properties were correlated to microstructural and
fractographic features of the aluminium alloys need to
explore their essential failure mechanisms.
In this project, we demonstrated the development and Nano-mechanical study of Aluminum-cBN metal matrix composite (MMC) through the spark plasma sintering process. Aluminum is highly used in the automobile and aerospace industry. In this project, our objective was to increase the hardness and wear resistance properties of aluminum so we can increase the effective use in the field. To achieve that we used the cBN particles of different particle sizes in aluminum and observe their effects on hardness and wear resistance properties. We mixed the powders by the ultra-sonication process then used the Spark Plasma Sintering process for compaction of powders, which is an effective way to decrease the porosity of our solid. Parameters for the spark plasma sintering were 550°∁ temperature, 50 MPa pressure with a dwell time of 5 minutes.
There were many practical reasons for using spark plasma sintering, it can prepare fully dense materials, requires less time for sample preparation at temperatures lower than melting points. It prevents grain coarsening, with regards to severe plastic deformation; spark plasma sintering can fully release residual stresses and as a result, produces fewer cracks and segregation along with uniform microstructure.
We used different characterization techniques to test and analyze various properties of the samples. A high-level homogeneity was observed inside the MMC, by studying different SEM results, any phase changes after the sintering process was observed by XRD. We used the Archimedes principle to achieve the density of our sample. Then Vickers Hardness proved that the addition of cBN aided in increasing the hardness up to our predicted results. Several corrosion tests were performed to create a precise electrochemical study which consists of EIS(Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) and PD (Potentio-dynamic) of the samples of the composite. Also, we determined the Poison’s ratio for the Nano-indentation study.
Our aim is also to analyze and study the thermal expansion coefficient, thermal conductivity, and coefficient of wear resistance of our samples.

¤ This is why 5N copper is often touted as easier to bond – it’s
softer because it’s more pure
¤ Dopants are not normally added to copper wire

deformation process
¤ Plastic deformation breaks large
grains into small grains
¤ Smaller grains cause the material
to become harder

Dislocations that cause deformation within the grains are
known as ʻ‘statistically stored dislocationsʼ’ (SSDs)
Because they move through the

meeting other dislocations or
they can be randomly trapped

These types of dislocations are called
‘geometrically necessary dislocations’
Because they are necessary to maintain
co-operative deformation between grains
Creation of these types of dislocations at

boundaries requires more stress to

52. Dislocations and Strengthening
¤ Dislocations in some metals are created and destroyed
at similar rates
¤ This results in weak strengthening with plastic deformation
¤ In other metals, creation outweighs destruction and
dislocation density increases

61. Final Wire Orientation: Au vs. Cu
Au and Cu usually have
the same orientation
after drawing
More aggressive annealing of
Cu wire changes the
orientation from majority <111>
to majority <100>
<111>

63. Elastic/Plastic Behaviour: Size Effects
The larger the grain size relative
to sample diameter the more
surface grains influence
deformation
Surface may grains deform
like single crystals and inner
grains like polycrystals
