The electrical and mechanical properties of structures such as lead frames and other electrical/electronic devices containing, during processing, copper/tin interfaces are improved by introduction of nickel to such interface. Typically, a weight percentage of nickel to tin in the range 1 to 12 weight percent yields upon melting of the tin, an intermetallic compound with essentially no occluded, unbound tin. Thus undesirable anomalous structures such as tin needles and substantially non-planar interface compositions are avoided. Advantageously a nickel/tin/copper intermetallic interface that is substantially planar is formed in the substantial absence of needle-like tin structures.
