In this paper, soldering experiments of fine pitch quad flat package (QFP) devices were carried out when soldered with Sn–Ag–Cu and Sn–Cu–Ni lead-free solders by means of diode laser soldering system, and compared with the experimental results soldered with Sn–Pb solders and with infrared (IR) reflow soldering method. The results indicate that under the conditions of laser continuous scanning mode and the fixed laser soldering time, an optimal power is obtained when the optimal mechanical properties of QFP microjoints are achieved. Mechanical properties of QFP microjoints soldered with laser soldering system are better than that of QFP microjoints soldered with IR soldering method. Results also indicate that adding rare earth element Ce to Sn–Ag–Cu and Sn–Cu–Ni lead-free solders improves mechanical properties of QFP microjoints, and the optimal amount of Ce is about 0.03%.

The greatest advantage of Sn-Zn eutectic is its low melting point (198 oC) which is close to the melting point. of Sn-Pb eutectic solder (183 oC), as well as its low price per mass unit compared with Sn-Ag and Sn-Ag-Cu solders. In this paper, the effect of 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 wt. % Al as ternary additions on melting temperature, microstructure, microhardness and mechanical properties of the Sn-9Zn lead-free solders were investigated. It is shown that the alloying additions of Al at 4 wt. % to the Sn-Zn binary system lead to lower of the melting point to 195.72 ˚C.  From x-ray diffraction analysis, an aluminium phase, designated α-Al is detected for 4 and 5 wt. % Al compositions. The formation of an aluminium phase causes a pronounced increase in the electrical resistivity and microhardness. The ternary Sn-9Zn-2 wt.%Al exhibits micro hardness superior to Sn-9Zn binary alloy. The better Vickers hardness and melting points of the ternary alloy is attributed to solid solution effect, grain size refinement and precipitation of Al and Zn in the Sn matrix.  The Sn-9%Zn-4%Al alloy is a lead-free solder designed for possible drop-in replacement of Pb-Sn solders.

The enforcement of environmental legislation is pushing electronic products to take lead-free solder alloys as the substitute of traditional lead-tin solder alloys. Applications of such alloys require a better understanding of their mechanical behaviors. The mechanical properties of the lead-free solders and IMC layers are affected by the thermal aging. The lead-free solder joints on the pads subject to thermal aging test lead to IMC growth and cause corresponding reliability concerns. In this paper, the mechanical properties of the lead-free solders and IMCs were characterized by nanoindentation. Both the Sn-rich phase and Ag3Sn + β-Sn phase in the lead-free solder joint exhibit strain rate depended and aging soften effect. When lead-free solder joints were subject to thermal aging, Young's modulus of the (Cu, Ni)6Sn5 IMC and Cu6Sn5 IMC changed in very small range. While the hardness value decreased with the increasing of the thermal aging time.

The microstructure, melting point, and mechanical properties of Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al–XAg lead-free solders were investigated. The Ag content of the solders investigated was 0–3 wt.%. The results indicate that the AgZn3 and Ag5Zn8 compounds are formed at the addition of Ag to Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al solders. The adding of Ag also results in the formation of hypoeutectic structure, increasing the melting point of the solders and decreasing the ductility. Results of thermal analysis reveal that the Sn–8.55Zn–0.45Al–XAg solder has eutectic temperature at 198 °C when the addition of Ag is 0.5 wt.%. The eutectic solder exhibits greater tensile strength and higher ductility than the 63–Sn–37Pb solder.
