Random Voids Generation and Effect of Thermal Shock Load on Mechanical Reliability of Light-Emitting Diode Flip Chip Solder Joints

To make the light-emitting diode (LED) more compact and effective, the flip chip solder joint is recommended in LED chip-scale packaging (CSP) with critical functions in mechanical support, heat dissipation, and electrical conductivity. However, the generation of voids always challenges the mechanical strength, thermal stability, and reliability of solder joints. This paper models the 3D random voids generation in the LED flip chip...
