Enthalpies of Formation of (Cu,Ni)₃Sn, (Cu,Ni)₆Sn₅-HT and (Ni,Cu)₃Sn_2-HT.

ABSTRACT: Standard enthalpies of formation of ternary phases in the Cu-Ni-Sn system were determined along sections at 25, 41 and 45.5 at.% Sn applying tin solution drop calorimetry. Generally, the interaction of Ni with Sn is much stronger than that of Cu with Sn. Along all sections the enthalpy of formation changes almost linearly with the mutual substitution of Cu and Ni within the respective homogeneity ranges. Thus no additional ternary interaction promoting the formation of further Cu-Ni-Sn phases can be assumed. The results are discussed and compared with literature values relevant to this system.

Reactions in Electrodeposited Cu/Sn and Cu/Ni/Sn Nanoscale Multilayers for Interconnects.

Project description:Miniaturization of electronic devices has led to the development of 3D IC packages which require ultra-small-scale interconnections. Such small interconnects can be completely converted into Cu-Sn based intermetallic compounds (IMCs) after reflow. In an effort to improve IMC based interconnects, an attempt is made to add Ni to Cu-Sn-based IMCs. Multilayer interconnects consisting of stacks of Cu/Sn/Cu/Sn/Cu or Cu/Ni/Sn/Ni/Sn/Cu/Ni/Sn/Ni/Cu with Ni = 35 nm, 70 nm, and 150 nm were electrodeposited sequentially using copper pyrophosphate, tin methanesulfonic, and nickel Watts baths, respectively. These multilayer interconnects were investigated under room temperature aging conditions and for solid-liquid reactions, where the samples were subjected to 250 °C reflow for 60 s and also 300 °C for 3600 s. The progress of the reaction in the multilayers was monitored by using X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscope, and Energy dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy. FIB-milled samples were also prepared for investigation under room temperature aging conditions. Results show that by inserting a 70 nanometres thick Ni layer between copper and tin, premature reaction between Cu and Sn at room temperature can be avoided. During short reflow, the addition of Ni suppresses formation of Cu₃Sn IMC. With increasing Ni thickness, Cu consumption is decreased and Ni starts acting as a barrier layer. On the other hand, during long reflow, two types of IMC were found in the Cu/Ni/Sn samples which are the (Cu,Ni)₆Sn₅ and (Cu,Ni)₃Sn, respectively. Details of the reaction sequence and mechanisms are discussed.

Abiotic Synthesis with the C-C Bond Formation in Ethanol from CO2 over (Cu,M)(O,S) Catalysts with M = Ni, Sn, and Co.

Project description:We demonstrate copper-based (Cu,M)(O,S) oxysulfide catalysts with M = Ni, Sn, and Co for the abiotic chemical synthesis of ethanol (EtOH) with the C-C bond formation by passing carbon dioxide (CO2) through an aqueous dispersion bath at ambient environment. (Cu,Ni)(O,S) with 12.1% anion vacancies had the best EtOH yield, followed by (Cu,Sn)(O,S) and (Cu,Co)(O,S). The ethanol yield with 0.2 g (Cu,Ni)(O,S) catalyst over a span of 20 h achieved 5.2 mg. The ethanol yield is inversely proportional to the amount of anion vacancy. The kinetic mechanism for converting the dissolved CO2 into the C2 oxygenate is proposed. Molecular interaction, pinning, and bond weakening with anion vacancy of highly strained catalyst, the electron hopping at Cu+/Cu2+ sites, and the reaction orientation of hydrocarbon intermediates are the three critical issues in order to make the ambient chemical conversion of inorganic CO2 to organic EtOH with the C-C bond formation in water realized. On the other hand, Cu(O,S) with the highest amount of 22.7% anion vacancies did not produce ethanol due to its strain energy relaxation opposing to the pinning and weakening of O-H and C-O bonds.

Growth kinetics of Cu6Sn5 intermetallic compound in Cu-liquid Sn interfacial reaction enhanced by electric current.

Project description:In this paper, electric currents with the densities of 1.0 × 102 A/cm2 and 2.0 × 102 A/cm2 were imposed to the Cu-liquid Sn interfacial reaction at 260 °C and 300 °C with the bonding times from 15 min to 960 min. Unlike the symmetrical growth following a cubic root dependence on time during reflowing, the Cu6Sn5 growth enhanced by solid-liquid electromigration followed a linear relationship with time. The elevated electric current density and reaction temperature could greatly accelerate the growth of Cu6Sn5, and could induce the formation of cellular structures on the surfaces because of the constitutional supercooling effect. A growth kinetics model of Cu6Sn5 based on Cu concentration gradient was presented, in which the dissolution of cathode was proved to be the controlling step. This model indicates that higher current density, higher temperature and larger joint width were in favor of the dissolution of Cu. Finally, the shear strengths of joints consisted of different intermetallic compound microstructures were evaluated. The results showed that the Cu6Sn5-based joint could achieve comparable shear strength with Sn-based joint.

Suppressed Growth of (Fe, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu)Sn2 Intermetallic Compound at Interface between Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu Solder and FeCoNiCrCu0.5 Substrate during Solid-state Aging.

Project description:High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising materials for next-generation applications because of their mechanical properties, excellent high-temperature stability, and resistance against oxidation and corrosion. Although many researchers have investigated high-temperature HEA applications, few have considered low-temperature applications. Here we demonstrate an unprecedented intermetallic compound of (Fe, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu)Sn2 at the interface between Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC) solder and FeCoNiCrCu0.5 HEA substrate after reflow at 400 °C. Significantly suppressed growth of intermetallic compound without detachment from the substrate was observed during thermal aging at 150 °C for 150 h. Sn grains with an average grain size of at least 380 μm are observed. The results reveal a completely new application for the fields of Sn-Ag-Cu solder and HEA materials.

Brazing of TC4 Alloy Using Ti-Zr-Ni-Cu-Sn Amorphous Braze Fillers.

Project description:In order to address the issues of excessive brittle intermetallic compounds (IMC) formation in the TC4 brazed joints, two types of novel Ti-Zr-Cu-Ni-Sn amorphous braze fillers were designed. The microstructure and shear strength of the TC4/Ti-Zr-Ni-Cu-Sn/TC4 brazed joints were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and electronic universal materials testing machine. The results show that the optimized Ti35Zr25Ni15Cu20Sn5 braze filler whose chemical composition is closer to the eutectic point possesses a lower melting point compared with the equiatomic Ti23.75Zr23.75Ni23.75Cu23.75Sn5. This was beneficial to the sufficient diffusion of Cu and Ni elements with the base metal during brazing and reduces the residual (Ti,Zr)2(Ni,Cu) content in the joint, which helps to improve the joint performance. The room-temperature and high-temperature shear strength of the TC4 brazed joints using the near eutectic component Ti35Zr25Ni15Cu20Sn5 filler reached a maximum of 472 MPa and 389 MPa at 970 °C/10 min, which was 66% and 48% higher than that of the TC4 joints brazed with the equiatomic Ti23.75Zr23.75Ni23.75Cu23.75Sn5 braze filler. Microstructural evolution and the corresponding mechanical response were in-depth discussed.

Cu-Sn Aerogels for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction with High CO Selectivity.

Project description:This work reports the synthesis of CuxSny alloy aerogels for electrochemical CO2 reduction catalysts. An in situ reduction and the subsequent freeze-drying process can successfully give CnxSny aerogels with tuneable Sn contents, and such aerogels are composed of three-dimensional architectures made from inter-connected fine nanoparticles with pores as the channels. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that the introduction of Sn in Cu aerogels inhibits H2 evolution reaction (HER) activity, while the accelerated CO desorption on the catalyst surface is found at the same time. The porous structure of aerogel also favors exposing more active sites. Counting these together, with the optimized composition of Cu95Sn5 aerogel, the high selectivity of CO can be achieved with a faradaic efficiency of over 90% in a wide potential range (-0.7 V to -1.0 V vs. RHE).

Theoretical study of ternary silver fluorides AgMF4 (M = Cu, Ni, Co) formation at pressures up to 20 GPa.

Project description:Only several compounds bearing the Ag(ii) cation and other paramagnetic transition metal cations are known experimentally. Herein, we predict in silico stability and crystal structures of hypothetical ternary silver(ii) fluorides with copper, nickel and cobalt in 1 : 1 stoichiometry at a pressure range from 0 GPa up to 20 GPa employing the evolutionary algorithm in combination with DFT calculations. The calculations show that AgCoF4 could be synthesized already at ambient conditions but this compound would host diamagnetic Ag(i) and high-spin Co(iii). Although none of the compounds bearing Ag(ii) could be preferred over binary substrates at ambient conditions, at increased pressure ternary fluorides of Ag(ii) featuring Cu(ii) and Ni(ii) could be synthesized, in the pressure windows of 7-14 and 8-15 GPa, respectively. All title compounds would be semiconducting and demonstrate magnetic ordering. Compounds featuring Ni(ii) and particularly Co(ii) should exhibit fundamental band gaps much reduced with respect to pristine AgF2. The presence of Cu(ii) and Ni(ii) does not lead to electronic doping to AgF2 layers, while Co(ii) tends to reduce Ag(ii) entirely to Ag(i).

Thermoelectric properties of n-type Cu4Sn7S16-based compounds.

Project description:Copper-based chalcogenides have ultralow thermal conductivity and ultrahigh thermoelectric performance, but most of them are p-type semiconductors. It is urgent to develop n-type counterparts for high efficiency thermoelectric modules based on these copper based-chalcogenides. Cu4Sn7S16 is an intrinsically n-type semiconductor with complex crystal structure and low thermal conductivity. However, its thermoelectric properties have not been well studied when compared to the well-known n-type CuFeS2. In this work, high-quality Cu4Sn7S16-based compounds are fabricated and their thermoelectric properties are systematically studied. Using Ag and Sb as dopants, the carrier concentration is tuned over a wide range. The electrical transport properties can be well described by the single parabolic band model with carrier acoustic phonons scattering. It is revealed that Cu4Sn7S16 exhibits a low effective mass and relatively high mobility. The thermal conductivity is lower than 0.8 W m-1 K-1 from 300 to 700 K and shows a weak dependence on temperature. A maximum zT of 0.27 is obtained in Cu3.97Ag0.03Sn7S16 at 700 K. Further enhancement of thermoelectric performance is possible when a more efficient n-type dopant is used.

Detailed Characterization of the Surface and Growth Mechanism of Monodisperse Ni3Sn4 Nanoparticles.

Project description:Synthesis of most tin-based bimetallic nanoparticles is a challenging task because of the differences in the redox potential and the melting point between both components. This article presents a co-reduction synthesis of monoclinic Ni3Sn4 nanoparticles. Varying time and temperature gives the possibility to control the size of the nanoparticles in the range of 4-12 nm. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy measurements. Although the synthesis was conducted entirely oxygen free, the postsynthetic treatment undertaken under air leads to the formation of an amorphous oxide shell. The oxide shell consists of an outer tin-rich region and a nickel-rich region at the interface to the metallic Ni3Sn4 core. On the basis of the investigation of the particles at different stages of the synthesis, we propose a growth mechanism for the Ni3Sn4 nanocrystals. These results can be a guidepost for the synthesis of other tin-based bimetallic nanoparticles.

Influence of Ni and Sn Perovskite NiSn(OH)6 Nanoparticles on Energy Storage Applications.

Project description:New NiSn(OH)6 hexahydroxide nanoparticles were synthesised through a co-precipitation method using various concentrations of Ni2+ and Sn4+ ions (e.g., 1:0, 0:1, 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1; namely, N, S, NS-3, NS-2, and NS-1) with an ammonia solution. The perovskite NiSn(OH)6 was confirmed from powder X-ray diffraction and molecule interactions due to different binding environments of Ni, Sn, O, and water molecules observed from an FT-IR analysis. An electronic transition was detected from tin (Sn 3d) and nickel (Ni 2p) to oxygen (O 2p) from UV-Vis/IR spectroscopy. Photo luminescence spectroscopy (PL) identified that the emission observed at 400-800 nm in the visible region was caused by oxygen vacancies due to various oxidation states of Ni and Sn metals. A spherical nanoparticle morphology was observed from FE-SEM; this was due to the combination of Ni2+ and Sn4+ increasing the size and porosity of the nanoparticle. The elemental (Ni and Sn) distribution and binding energy of the nanoparticle were confirmed by EDAX and XPS analyses. Among the prepared various nanoparticles, NS-2 showed a maximum specific capacitance of 607 Fg-1 at 1 Ag-1 and 56% capacitance retention (338 Fg-1 and 5 Ag-1), even when increasing the current density five times, and excellent cycle stability due to combining Ni2+ with Sn4+, which improved the ionic and electrical conductivity. EIS provided evidence for NS-2's low charge transfer resistance compared with other prepared samples. Moreover, the NS-2//AC (activated carbon) asymmetric supercapacitor exhibited the highest energy density and high-power density along with excellent cycle stability, making it the ideal material for real-time applications.
