Conventional hot air reflow soldering is one of major bonding technology when bonding is proceeded on automotive electronics applications. However, here we focus on modifying the bonding process and composition of solder to enhance mechanical and thermal properties. This study experimentally investigated the mechanism of how laser- assisted bonding (LAB) form a small size of initial intermetallic compounds (IMC), and 0.2 wt% Cr element was added to Sn-0.7Cu eutectic solder to suppress the IMC growth. As a result, Sn-0.7Cu and Sn-0.7Cu-0.2Cr initial grain refinement was achieved by LAB. Isothermal aging was conducted to observe the mechanical and thermal properties depending on the IMC growth under 100, 125, 150 ℃ respectively. Sn-0.7Cu-0.2Cr tended to inhibit the growth of IMC at solder matrix and interface compared to Sn-0.7Cu throughout all aging temperature and time. The shear test was proceeded and Sn-0.7Cu-0.2Cr shear force was achieved 18% higher than Sn-0.7Cu. Even after isothermal aging, Sn-0.7Cu-0.2Cr showed lower reduction rate of shear force compared to Sn-0.7Cu.
