Coalescence kinetics and microstructure evolution of Cu nanoparticles sintering on substrates: a molecular dynamics study

Nano copper sintering technology has great potential to be widely applied in the wide-bandgap semiconductor packaging. In order to investigate the coalescence kinetics of copper nano particles for this application, a molecular dynamic (MD) simulation was carried out at low temperature on a special model containing two substrate and multiple...

Thermal kinetic and mechanical behaviors of pressure-assisted Cu nanoparticles sintering: A molecular dynamics study

A molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed on the coalescence kinetics and mechanical behavior of the pressure-assisted Cu nanoparticles (NPs) sintering at low temperature. To investigate the effects of sintering pressure and temperature on the coalescence of the nanoparticles, sintering simulations of two halve Cu NPs were conducted at...
