    Abstract: A solder preform in the shape of a solder tube or washer includes: a cylindrically shaped solder alloy body including an inner surface, an outer surface, a first end, a second end, a first opening located at the first end, and a second opening located at the second end, the second end interlocking with the first end, and the first opening and the second opening cut along an entire height of the solder alloy body; and a flux core embedded in the solder alloy body between the inner surface and the outer surface, the flux core including a thermochromic indicator. During reflow soldering, the flux core including the thermochromic indicator flows out of the first opening of the first end and the second opening of the second end to coat the inner surface of the solder alloy body and the outer surface of the solder alloy body.

    Abstract: Implementations of the disclosure are directed to thermally decomposable build plates that enable the facile release of 3D metal printed parts created by additive manufacturing. In some implementations, an additive manufacturing build plate comprises: a top surface, a bottom surface, and sidewalls comprised of a material, wherein the top surface, bottom surface, and sidewalls are dimensioned such that the build plate is useable in a 3D printing device; and a recessed section formed through the top surface, wherein the recessed section is configured to be filled with a solid metal or metal alloy to provide a surface for forming a 3D printed object in the 3D printing device.

    Abstract: Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to low melting temperature (e.g., liquidus temperature below 210° C.) SnBi or Snln solder alloys. A SnBi solder alloy may consist of 2 to 60 wt % Bi; optionally, one or more of: up to 16 wt % In, up to 4.5 wt % Ag, up to 2 wt % Cu, up to 12 wt % Sb, up to 2.5 wt % Zn, up to 1.5 wt % Ni, up to 1.5 wt % Co, up to 1.5 wt % Ge, up to 1.5 wt % P, and up to 1.5 wt % Mn; and a remainder of Sn. A Snln solder alloy may consist of: 8 to 20 wt % In; optionally, one or more of: up to 12 wt % Bi, up to 4 wt % Ag, up to 5 wt % Sb, up to 3 wt % Cu, up to 2.5 wt % Zn, up to 1.5 wt % Ni, up to 1.5 wt % Co, up to 1.5 wt % Ge, up to 1.5 wt % P, and up to 1.5 wt % Mn; and a remainder of Sn.

    Abstract: A solder ribbon with an embedded mesh for improved reliability of semiconductor die to substrate attachment is described. A solder ribbon is embedded with a mesh having a melting point greater than that of the solder. The mesh is embedded through substantially the entire area of the solder ribbon. The embedded solder ribbon may then be wound onto a spool. During a reflow soldering process, the ribbon on the spool may be cut into segments that are placed between a semiconductor die and substrate to which the semiconductor die is to be bonded. When the semiconductor assembly is heated, the solder melts, but the mesh does not, allowing for uniform bondline thickness control.
