This work methodically concentrated on the effect of a trace amount of rare earth element terbium, Tb (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 wt. %) on the properties of eutectic Sn-3.5 wt. %Ag were studied. The results indicated that addition of Tb rare earth can be refined the microstructure of the solder and intermetallic compound (IMC) Ag3Sn phase appeared in the solder matrix. Add a few quantity of rare earth Tb enhances the hardness and strength of eutectic Sn-Ag lead free solder joint. Also, results indicate that adding Tb to the eutectic Sn-3.5Ag remarkably enhances solderability, reliability, thermal and mechanical properties. It is also found that increasing in mechanical strength can depend on crystalline size refining in addition to some regular precipitates from IMC, Ag3Sn.

In this paper, in order to develop a low silver content lead-free solder with good overall properties, a newly designed solder alloys of Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu-20Bi-xCe type, with addition of varying amounts of rare earth Ce (0.05 mass%, 0.1 mass% and 0.2 mass%) were studied. The melting temperature of Sn-0.3Ag- 0.7Cu can be decreased substantially through addition of 20 mass% Bi; while the segregation of Bi element in the microstructure of the as-cast alloys can be relieved by micro-alloying with trace amount of rare earth Ce. Besides, aging treatments (160?C held for 6 h) of these solder alloys imply that appropriate amount of Ce addition can not only depress the diffusion induced aggregation of Bi in the microstructure but promote the homogenization during annealing. Compared with Bi-free Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu solder, Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu- 20Bi exhibits better wettability. More excitingly, the wetting property of Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu-20Bi can be further improved by doping little amounts of Ce, especially 0.5 mass%, in which case the spreading area of the solder can be increased to the largest extent. On the whole, the present study reveals that Sn-0.3Ag-0.7Cu- 20Bi-xCe (x=0.05-0.1) is a promising lead-free solder candidate considering the microstructure, melting temperature and wetting properties.
