Abstract
In this study, a Zn–Sn–Cu sandwich structure was heated and electrically crystallized. The morphology, phase structure, diffusion behavior, and interface electrical properties of the sandwich structure and the microstructure changes in Zn, Sn, and Cu driven by heat and electricity were investigated. The experimental results revealed that thermal effects caused marked diffusion of Cu atoms. Cu6Sn5 IMC was formed at the Cu–Sn interface, and Cu5Sn8 was formed at the Zn–Sn interface. The electron flow drove Sn atoms into Cu with directional diffusion and inhibited Cu6Sn5 formation. Moreover, the overall electrical properties, interlayer thickness, and microstructure differences varied with the diffusion behavior and interface composition caused by thermal and electrical effects.
