We propose a novel bonding process using Ag metallo-organic nanoparticles as a new application of nanotechnologies. The average size of the Ag nanoparticle is approximately 11 nm, and each nanoparticle is covered with an organic shell. Usually, the agglomeration of metallic nanoparticles is unavoidable due to its large surface energy. However, on the account of the organic shell, these Ag nanoparticles exist individually, and once the organic shell has been removed, these Ag nanoparticles turn activated and abruptly agglomerate. We analyzed its thermal characteristics, applied the agglomerating of the nanoparticles to Cu-to-Cu joining, and researched the influence of the bonding condition, such as bonding pressure, temperature or holding time, upon the joint strengths. The joint strengths using the nanoparticles were 30–40 MPa, which is strong enough to be applied as a solder. In addition, it came to the conclusion that the strengths increased in accord with the aforesaid three parameters.

Sintering Mechanisms

We have proposed a novel bonding process using composite Ag nanoparticles composed of Ag metallo-organic nanoparticles and Ag2CO3 for an application to the assembly of electronic devices. In this research, the sintering mechanisms of the composite Ag nanoparticles are discussed based on the results of the observation of the sintering behaviors and the investigation of the thermal characteristics. Moreover, Cu specimens were bonded using the composite Ag nanoparticles for measuring the bonding strengths. Based on the results, the effects of the Ag2CO3 contents in the composite Ag nanoparticles and the bonding conditions on the bondability were evaluated. As a result, it was found that the composite Ag nanoparticles were sintered rapidly because of the interaction between the Ag metallo-organic nanoparticles and Ag2CO3. Thereby, the bondability was improved by optimizing the contents of Ag2CO3 in the composite Ag nanoparticles.

In this study, silver (Ag) nanoparticle thin films were deposited on microscope slide glass and Si wafer substrates using the pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) technique in Ar ambient gas pressures of 1 × 10−3 and 7.5 × 10−1 mbar. AFM analysis has shown that the number of Ag nanoparticles reaching the substrate decreased with increasing Ar gas pressure. As a result of Ar ambient gas being allowed into the vacuum chamber, it was observed that the size and height of Ag nanoparticles decreased and the interparticle distances decreased. According to the absorption spectra taken by a UV–vis spectrometer, the wavelength where the localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peak appeared was shifted towards the longer wavelength region in the solar spectrum as Ar background gas pressure was decreased. This experiment shows that LSPR wavelength can be tuned by adjusting the size of metal nanoparticles, which can be controlled by changing Ar gas pressure. The obtained extinction cross section spectra for Ag nanoparticle thin film was theoretically analysed and determined by using the metal nanoparticle–boundary element method (MNPBEM) toolbox simulation program. In this study, experimental spectrum and simulation data for metal nanoparticles were acquired, compared, and determined to be in agreement.

Silver (Ag) nanoparticles synthesized in an aqueous system was sintered at room temperature using NaCl solution. The Ag nanoparticles have an average diameter of about 24 nm. After dispersing the Ag nanoparticles in 50mM NaCl solution, a significant increase in particle size to about 206 nm was observed. On the other hand, the particle size was also increased to about 175 nm when the Ag nanoparticles were printed and then 50mM NaCl solution was dropped onto the printed Ag nanoparticles. The enlargement of particle size was accompanied by the increase in conductivity of the Ag nanoparticle ink. The resistance was reduced from 57.7 to 6.5 and 6.7 ohms for the as-prepared and sintered Ag nanoparticles using two different treatments, respectively. The sintered Ag nanoparticle ink formulation exhibit high conductivity when drawn on both cellulose acetate film and bond paper even after bending and folding of the substrates.

Fusing of silver (Ag) nanoparticles synthesized in an aqueous system was observed at room temperature using halide solutions. The as-synthesized Ag nanoparticles have an average diameter of about 24 nm. After dispersing the Ag nanoparticles in a halide solution, a significant increase in particle size to about 188-197 nm was observed. The enlargement of particle size was accompanied by the increase in conductivity of the Ag nanoparticle ink. The resistance was reduced from 110 kiloohms to 35 and 9.3 ohms for the as-prepared and sintered Ag nanoparticles using NaBr and NaCl solution, respectively.

AbstractSolid state sintering of Ag nanoparticles was used to bond Cu wires to Cu foils at temperatures less than 250°C. The Ag nanoparticles are coated with an organic shell to prevent sintering at room temperature. After annealing the nanoparticles at 200°C, the decomposition of the organic shell was confirmed using TGA and Raman spectroscopy. The joint strength was measured by tensile shear tests, which shows that the joint strength increases as the bonding temperature increases. Metallic bond between Ag nanoparticles and Cu was achieved with no contamination. Bonds formed by our method, was confirmed to withstand temperatures higher than the bonding temperatures.

Silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited on the surface of bulk Nitrogen-Boron co-doped 6H silicon carbide (SiC), and the Ag NPs were observed to induce localized surface plasmons (LSP) resonances on the SiC substrate, which was expected to improve the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of the emissions of the donor-acceptor pairs of the SiC substrate. Room-temperature measurements of photoluminescence (PL), transmittance and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) were applied to characterize the LSP resonances. Through the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation of the LSP resonance of an Ag nanoparticle on the SiC substrate, it is predicted that when the diameter of the cross section on the xy plane of the Ag nanoparticle is greater than 225 nm, the LSP starts to enhance the PL intensity. With implementation of a 3rd order exponential decay fitting model to the TRPL results, it is found that the average minority carrier lifetime of the SiC substrate decreased.
