Establishment of the coarse grained parameters for epoxy-copper interfacial separation

Atomistic coarse grained parameters were calculated from a non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation of the separation of an epoxy-copper interface. The methodology to determine the interaction energy and the equilibrium distance between the interfacial materials at a minimum energy is established. The traction-displacement relations of the...

Molecular simulation strategy for mechanical modeling of amorphous/porous low-dielectric constant materials

We propose an amorphous/porous molecular connection network generation algorithm for simulating the material stiffness of a low-k material (SiOC:H). Based on a given concentration of the basic building blocks, this algorithm will generate an approximate and large amorphous network. The molecular topology is obtained by distributing these blocks...
