Abstract Determination of metal bridging failures on plastic encapsulated devices is difficult due to the metal etching effects that occur while removing many of the plastic mold compounds. Typically, the acids used to remove the encapsulation are corrosive to the metals that are found within the device. Thus, decapsulation can result in removal of the failure mechanism. Mechanical techniques are often not successful due to damage that results in destruction of the die and failure mechanism. This paper discusses a novel approach to these types of failures using a silicon etch and a backside evaluation. The desirable characteristics of the technique would be to remove the silicon and leave typical device metals unaffected. It would also be preferable that the device passivation and oxides not be etched so that the failure location is not disturbed. The use of Tetramethylammonium Hydroxide (TMAH), was found to fit these prerequisites. The technique was tested on clip attached Schottky diodes that exhibited resistive shorting. The use of the TMAH technique was successful at exposing thin solder bridges that extruded over the edge of the die resulting in failure.

In this study, the global and local tensile behaviours of laser welded 5.1-mm thick Ti-6Al-4V alloy were obtained at various welding speeds and defocusing distances using a digital image correlation (DIC) technique with a full field three-dimensional deformation measurement system. The local tensile properties including elastic modulus, yield stress, and maximum plastic strain were determined at various locations by assuming an iso-stress condition. It was found that the elastic modulus and yield stress were maximum in the fusion zone (FZ) and minimum in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Porosity and underfill defects were the main reasons for the failures in the FZ and/or the HAZ. Maximum plastic strain at fracture was observed at the failure location in most cases.

It is now possible to determine proper motions of high-velocity objects in such a way as to obtain with some accuracy the velocity vector relevant to the Sun. If a potential field of the Galaxy is assumed, one can compute an actual orbit. A determination of the velocity of the globular clusterωCentauri has recently been completed at Greenwich, and it is found that the orbit is strongly retrograde in the Galaxy. Similar calculations may be made, though with less certainty, in the case of RR Lyrae variable stars.

Using the new reductions of the IUE light curves by Sonneborn et al. (1997) and an extensive set of HST images of SN 1987A we have repeated and improved Panagia et al. (1991) analysis to obtain a better determination of the distance to the supernova. In this way we have derived an absolute size of the ringRabs= (6.23 ± 0.08) x 1017cm and an angular sizeR″ = 808 ± 17 mas, which give a distance to the supernovad(SN1987A) = 51.4 ± 1.2 kpc and a distance modulusm–M(SN1987A) = 18.55 ± 0.05. Allowing for a displacement of SN 1987A position relative to the LMC center, the distance to the barycenter of the Large Magellanic Cloud is also estimated to bed(LMC) = 52.0±1.3 kpc, which corresponds to a distance modulus ofm–M(LMC) = 18.58±0.05.

A symposium on the future of the International Latitude Service (I. L. S.) is to be held in Helsinki in July 1960. My report for the symposium consists of two parts. Part I, denoded (Mk I) was published [1] earlier in 1960 under the title “Latitude and Longitude, and the Secular Motion of the Pole”. Part II is the present paper, denoded (Mk II).

In South Africa the modern outlook towards time may be said to have started in 1948. Both the two major observatories, The Royal Observatory in Cape Town and the Union Observatory (now known as the Republic Observatory) in Johannesburg had, of course, been involved in the astronomical determination of time almost from their inception, and the Johannesburg Observatory has been responsible for the official time of South Africa since 1908. However the pendulum clocks then in use could not be relied on to provide an accuracy better than about 1/10 second, which was of the same order as that of the astronomical observations. It is doubtful if much use was made of even this limited accuracy outside the two observatories, and although there may – occasionally have been a demand for more accurate time, it was certainly not voiced.

AbstractPrecise measurements of heliographic position of solar filaments were used for determination of the proper motion of solar filaments on the time-scale of days. The filaments have a tendency to make a shaking or waving of the external structure and to make a general movement of whole filament body, coinciding with the transport of the magnetic flux in the photosphere. The velocity scatter of individual measured points is about one order higher than the accuracy of measurements.
