Characterizing the interfacial fracture toughness for microelectronic packaging by Chen, W. T., Chen, Zhong, Cotterell, Brian

“…Take an example in a flipchip package: delamination at the interfaces between underfill/passivation, underfill/substrate, etc. will lead to the speeded breakdown of the interconnection. Proper characterization of interfacial adhesion strength is very important for process control as well as reliability prediction. …”
