Recently, PbO containing glass systems in commercial silver paste have been used due to their low glass transition temperature, good thermal and electrical properties. However, PbO is a hazardous material to both health and the environment. In this study, Pb-free silver paste was prepared by mixing commercial silver powder and silver nanoparticles. The commercial powder has an average particle size of 1.6 μm. The silver nanoparticles with particles size of 20–50 nm were synthesized by a chemical reduction method using surfactant. Pb-free frit was added into the mixed silver powder as the amounts of 3, 6 and 9 wt%. Using the obtained paste, thick films were fabricated by a screen printing on alumina substrate and the films were fired at temperature from 400 to 550 °C. The films had thickness of 6–11 μm and sheet resistivity of about 4–11 μΩ cm.

Silver nanoparticles produced with a solid-phase thermal decomposition method were used for the preparation of a conductive paste supporting curing at low temperatures. The conducting paste was prepared by blending fine spherical silver powder and silver nanoparticles with a diameter of 20nm in order to reduce the electric resistivity of the electrodes. Although the viscosity of the conducting paste increased by about 25% after 60 days, it exhibited superior stability to dispersion in comparison to commercial paste. The electric resistivity of the electrode was of the order of 10-6Ωcm at a curing temperature of 200°C. Using this conducting paste, it is possible to print at widths of 20m. The resistivity was further reduced by 1% in the high temperature test at 120°C, by 5% in the high humidity and high temperature test, and by 5% during the thermal shock test at temperatures ranging from -45 to 80°C.

Abstract As an important interconnection material in electronics, conductive silver paste has attract much research interest in chip packaging and printed circuit board due to its predominant properties like high conductivity and flexible interconnection. In this paper, the silver nanoparticles, the silver sphere particles and flake silver powder are fabricated by various methods. Different proportions of silver powder are selected to prepare micro-silver paste and mn silver paste (fabricated by silver nanoparticles : sphere particles : flake silver powder=1:1:1). Compared to traditional silver paste (containing 80wt% silver), the electrical resistivity of micro-silver paste containing 66.67wt% silver and cured at 200℃ for 45min in air is about (3.31±0.73)×10-5Ω·cm when the ratio of sphere particle to flake silver powder is 1:1, the resistance of silver paste doesn’t also increase dramatically after bending ten times. The addition of nano-silver particles can reduce the resistivity in lower temperature curing. The folding endurance of mn silver paste is comparable to that of micro-silver paste with sphere : flake=1:1.

Fabrication of paste at low temperature has been developed in order to apply for various electronic devices, such as bus electrode and address electrode in PDP, especially for enlargement of a screen size. In this study, nano-sized silver particles with 10 - 30 nm were synthesized from silver nitrate (AgNO3) by a chemical reduction method. To prepare Pb-free silver paste, the silver nanoparticles were mixed with conventional silver powder with an average particle size of 1.6 and conventional Pb-free frit. Thick films were fabricated from silver paste by a screen printing on alumina substrate and the films were fried at temperatures ranging from 550 °C to 600 °C. Microstructures of the fried thick films were analyzed by FE-SEM. Sheet resistivity of fried thick films was measured and also the relationship between sinterability and conductivity of these films were investigated.

Aggregation state of silver nanoparticles dispersed in an aqueous solution greatly varies with storage and treatment conditions. In this study, silver nanoparticles synthesized in chitosan solution by a chemical reduction method were hydrothermally treated at different temperatures. The variation in the aggregation state of silver nanoparticles in the solution was observed by UV-Vis spectroscopy and field emission transmission electron microscopy. Results indicated that a phase transition occurred while silver nanoparticles were hydrothermally treated for 5 h at 100 and 120∘C; however, they aggregated and completely precipitated at 150∘C. Mesoporous silver powder obtained by hydrothermal treatment at 150∘C was characterized by using X-ray diffraction technique, BET analyzer, and scanning electron spectroscope.

Silver nanoparticles are seen as a possible replacement for high temperature solders containing 90-95 wt.% Pb, which is widely used in various applications e.g. automotives. These high temperature solders have been exempted from the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive due to very limited drop-in replacement for the high temperature solders. Although the effect of sintering temperature of silver nanoparticles has been studied, the mechanism involved in the changes in the morphology of the particles and interfacial reaction with the substrate as a function of sintering temperature must be understood. In this study the effect of sintering temperature on the morpohology of Ag nanoparticles is discussed. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis was used to analyze the changes in morphology of silver particles agglomerates with sintering temperatures. Results showed necking of the nanosilver powder, which indicated the occurrence of sintering through grain boundary diffusion process. Meanwhile, the micro-silver powder showed agglomeration of particles but no necking was observed. The study has shown that the Ag agglomerates was observed to undergo various changes to the particle morphology with different sintering temperatures.

Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) fiber probe provides abundant interaction area between light and materials, permits detection within limited space and is especially useful for remote or in situ detection. A silver decorated SERS fiber optic probe was prepared by hydrothermal method. This method manages to accomplish the growth of silver nanoparticles and its adherence on fiber optic tip within one step, simplifying the synthetic procedure. The effects of reaction time on phase composition, surface plasmon resonance property and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum (UV-VIS absorption spectrum) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that when reaction time is prolonged from 4–8 hours at 180 °C, crystals size and size distribution of silver nanoparticles increase. Furthermore, the morphology, crystal size and distribution density of silver nanoparticles evolve along with reaction time. A growth mechanism based on two factors, equilibrium between nucleation and growth, and the existence of PVP, is hypothesized. The SERS fiber probe can detect rhodamin 6G (R6G) at the concentration of 10−6 M. This SERS fiber probe exhibits promising potential in organic dye and pesticide residue detection.
