Inamdar, A.S. (author), van Soestbergen, M. (author), Mavinkurve, A. (author), van Driel, W.D. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)Semiconductor devices are commonly encapsulated with Epoxy-based Moulding Compounds (EMC) to form an electronic package. EMC typically occupies a large volume within a package, and thus, governs its thermomechanical behaviour. When exposed to high temperatures (150°C and above), electronic packages predominantly show oxidation of the outer layer...journal article 2024
