BONDING WIRE FOR SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES

摘要

It is an object of the present invention to provide a highly-functional bonding wire which has good wire-surface nature, loop linearity, stability of loop heights, and stability of a wire bonding shape, and which can cope with semiconductor packaging technologies, such as thinning, achievement of a fine pitch, achievement of a long span, and three-dimensional packaging. A semiconductor-device bonding wire comprises a core member formed of an electrically-conductive metal, and a skin layer mainly composed of a face-centered cubic metal different from the core member and formed thereon. The percentage of<100> orientations in crystalline orientations in the lengthwise direction in the surface of the skin layer is greater than or equal to 50%.
