METHOD FOR INHIBITING GROWTH OF TIN WHISKERS

摘要

A method for inhibiting growth of tin whiskers is provided. The method includes providing a metal substrate, forming a tin layer to cover the surface of the metal substrate, and treating the metal substrate covered the tin layer by an annealing process, wherein the annealing process is performed at 400° C.-600° C. and the surface of the tin layer is subsequently inhibited from growing tin whiskers.
