Synthesis of Nanoscale Metal Feedstock with Low-Temperature Sinterability for 3D Printing
­Background Nanoparticle-based metallic powders are of interest for rapid sintering, thermal bonding, and electrically conductive metal pastes due to its unique properties, such as lower sintering temperature compared to bulk counterparts and efficient light absorption for photonic curing. However, there are some drawbacks associated with the production,...

Fixture for In Situ Electromigration Testing during X‐ray Microtomography
Invention Description The reliability of microelectronic packaging is increasingly challenged by the phenomenon of electromigration in lead-free solder joints, where high current densities cause material transport and eventual failure. Traditional characterization methods, such as optical and scanning electron microscopy, are restricted to two-dimensional...
