Solders with intermetallic phases, solder bumps made thereof, packages containing same, and methods of assembling packages therewith

摘要

A solder composition includes a reflow-wetting element that is an intermetallic both pre-reflow and post-reflow. The intermetallic releases the reflow-wetting element upon heating. The solder composition includes the intermetallic first phase in a bulk-solder second phase. A method of assembling a microelectronic package includes the intermetallic in a solder. A computing system also includes the intermetallic first phase in the bulk-solder second phase.
