Accurate thermal modelling is crucial for ensuring the reliability and longevity of Power Modules (PM), particularly in demanding applications like electric vehicles and renewable energy systems. Traditional single-source Cauer network models, while computationally efficient, often fail to capture the complex thermal interactions within modern PM, which feature multiple heat sources and intricate packaging structures. This […]

Porosity is a common defect which occurs in solder joints. Porosity in surface mount joints will potentially cause weakening in joint strength and reduction in electrical and thermal conductivity. It will induce crack initiation and shorten the fatigue life of solder joints. In fact, pores contained in solder joints may intensify the stress and decrease […]
Electronic Integration is now considered a new paradigm for the semiconductor packaging industry to sustain Moore’s law. Vertical stacking of semiconductor chips provides high power density in a given footprint area. However, owing to increased integration, 3-D ICs having multiple core areas (hotspots) on each stack layer can often be prone to thermal interaction between […]
Direct Bonded Copper (DBC) is a high-performance substrate for power modules. It consists of multiple copper layers directly bonded to a ceramic substrate. This design offers excellent thermal and electrical conductivity and high mechanical strength, making it ideal for high-power applications. [1] However, due to CTE mismatch of the different layers, warpage may occur, causing […]
Laser microwelding is a useful technique for processing copper, aluminum, nickel, gold, silver and platinum strips with widths up to 2 mm and thicknesses up to 0.5 mm. This Back-End process is particularly suitable for bonding wires and tapes to pressure-sensitive substrates, such as battery contacts. The candidate will study, develop the laser microwelding process […]

The key factor of power devices is efficiency, the ability to move energy from the source to the load with minimal dispersion. In an ideal world, a power device that operates with forward bias allows current to flow without any resistance, making the device operate with zero power dissipation. In the real world any semiconductor […]
