Six failure modes were identified, i.e., short FR-4 cracks and complete FR-4 cracks at the printing circuit board （PCB） side, split between redistribution layer （RDL） and Cu under bump metallization （UBM）, RDL fracture, bulk cracks and partial bulk and intermetallic compound （IMC） cracks at the chip side. For the outmost solder joints, complete FR-4 cracks tended to occur, due to large deformation of PCB and low strength of FR-4 dielectric layer. The formation of complete FR-4 cracks largely absorbed the impact energy, resulting in the absence of other failure modes. For the inner solder joints, the absorption of impact energy by the short FR-4 cracks was limited, resulting in other failure modes at the chip side.展开更多

A three- dimensional packaged half bridge-IPEM （HB-IPEM）, consisting of two chip scale packaged MOSFETs and the corresponding gate driver and protection circuits, is fabricated at the laboratory. The reliability of the IPEM is controlled from the shape design of solder joints and the control of assembly process parameters. The parasitic parameters are extracted using Agilent 4395A impedance analyzer for building the parasitic parameter model of the HB- IPEM. A 12 V/3 A output synchronous rectifier Buck converter using the HB-IPEM is built to test the electrical performance of the HB-IPEM. Low voltage spikes on two MOSFETs illustrate that the three-dimensional package of the HB-IPEM can decrease parasitic inductance. Temperature distribution simulation results of the HB-IPEM using FLOTHERM are given. Heat dissipation of the solder joints makes the peak junction temperature of the chip drop obviously. The package realizes three-dimensional heat dissipation and has better thermal management.展开更多

The semi-soft threshold wavelet package filtering method is applied in the filtering of the FOG output signal. Experiments of the stationary and dynamic FOG output signals filtered with the wavelet package analysis are carried out in a lab environment, respectively. Experiments done with the real-time measured FOG signal show that the method of semi-soft threshold wavelet package filtering reduces the mean square error from 5 （°）/h to 1 （°）/h, so it is effective in eliminating the white noises and the fractal noises existing in the FOG. The novel method proposed here is proved valid in reducing the FOG drift error, satisfying the technical demands of high precision and realtime processing.展开更多

文摘To reveal the drop failure modes of the wafer level chip scale packages （WLCSPs） with Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder joints, board level drop tests were performed according to the JEDEC standard. Six failure modes were identified, i.e., short FR-4 cracks and complete FR-4 cracks at the printing circuit board （PCB） side, split between redistribution layer （RDL） and Cu under bump metallization （UBM）, RDL fracture, bulk cracks and partial bulk and intermetallic compound （IMC） cracks at the chip side. For the outmost solder joints, complete FR-4 cracks tended to occur, due to large deformation of PCB and low strength of FR-4 dielectric layer. The formation of complete FR-4 cracks largely absorbed the impact energy, resulting in the absence of other failure modes. For the inner solder joints, the absorption of impact energy by the short FR-4 cracks was limited, resulting in other failure modes at the chip side.

A 12 V/3 A output synchronous rectifier Buck converter using the HB-IPEM is built to test the electrical performance of the HB-IPEM. Low voltage spikes on two MOSFETs illustrate that the three-dimensional package of the HB-IPEM can decrease parasitic inductance. Temperature distribution simulation results of the HB-IPEM using FLOTHERM are given. Heat dissipation of the solder joints makes the peak junction temperature of the chip drop obviously. The package realizes three-dimensional heat dissipation and has better thermal management.

文摘This study employed integrated multi-omics approaches to elucidate,from the perspective of amino acid metabolism,the adaptive mechanism of Penicillium digitatum under modified atmosphere packaging(MAP)conditions.Comparative analysis of natural air(Air),controlled atmosphere(CA),and MAP treatments revealed that MAP upregulated the expression of the hercynylcysteine S-oxide synthase(HCSOS),aldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH),and monoamine oxidase(MAO)genes,thereby enhancing histidine-derived ergothioneine and methionine levels,and subsequently boosting glutathione-mediated redox homeostasis.Meanwhile,MAP induced the expression of the dihydroxyacid dehydratase(DHAD),saccharopine dehydrogenase(SDH),and arginosuccinate lyase(ASL)genes,redirecting valine,lysine,and arginine into the tricarboxylic acid(TCA)cycle to fuel ATP production.MAP also enhanced ASL-mediated arginine degradation and urea cycle activity,reducing arginine accumulation when compared to CA treatment.In contrast,while MAP induced upregulated expression of the pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase(P5CDH)and D-amino acid oxidase(DAAO)genes,CA treatment promoted proline accumulation,reflecting stress-specific metabolic flexibility.Collectively,these findings demonstrate that MAP triggers transcriptional reprogramming of amino acid metabolism to coordinate oxidative defense,energy generation,and osmotic balance.By modulating these metabolic pathways and regulatory genes under MAP conditions,fungal adaptability can be disrupted.Hence,this study provides a promising strategy for suppressing green mold development,extending the postharvest shelf life,and improving the quality of fruits and vegetables.

文摘As the pace of urban life accelerates,plastic wrap has become an everyday necessity.However,traditional petroleum-based plastic wrap is difficult to degrade and prone to releasing harmful plasticizers.Therefore,developing sustainable,biodegradable,and high-performance alternative materials is crucial.Inspired by the cellulose-gum reinforcement mechanism in flaxseed hulls,this study utilized flaxseed hulls as raw material.Through hot water washing,alkali boiling,and bleaching,high-purity insoluble cellulose(FC)was extracted.Subsequently,flaxseed hull cellulose nanofibers(FCN)were prepared via TEMPO oxidation and ultrasonic treatment.Using FC and FCN,an all-natural cellulose-flaxseed gum composite membrane(CM)was constructed,where FCN serves as the framework and flaxseed gum acts as the binder,forming a dense structure.This composite membrane demonstrated effectiveness in nut preservation,significantly delaying nut oxidation and providing a viable pathway for sustainable food packaging.
文摘Biobased biodegradable plastics have gained increasing attention as sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based materials in food packaging,offering biodegradability,renewability,and reduced environmental impact.This review adopts a narrative review approach,integrating studies published between 2015 and 2025 from major databases to critically evaluate the recent advances,feasibility,and limitations of biobased biodegradable plastics in food packaging.Literature was thematically analyzed by material type and functional enhancement to assess their feasibility and limitations for sustainable packaging applications.Recent advances have focused on enhancing their mechanical,barrier,and functional properties through polymer blending,nanoparticle reinforcement,and incorporation of natural bioactive agents.Starch-based bioplastics,derived from renewable sources such as corn and cassava,have been improved by blending with polylactic acid(PLA)or polybutylene succinate(PBS)and reinforcing with nanocellulose or silica to enhance flexibility,strength,and thermal stability.Incorporating plant extracts and polyphenols has added antioxidant and antimicrobial functions.PLA-based films have benefited from nanoparticle fillers like zinc oxide and lignin nanoparticles,and the integration of bioactive compounds such as tea polyphenols and hop extract has enabled multifunctional,intelligent packaging with controlled release and UV protection.Polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHAs),producedmicrobially,have been functionalizedwith tannins,ferulic acid,and other natural agents to achieve high antioxidant,antibacterial,and UV-blocking performance,while multilayer coatings have improved moisture and gas resistance.PBS composites have been enhanced using nanofillers like silver or magnesium oxide and natural additives such as quercetin and essential oils,thereby improving durability and bioactivity.Emerging materials,including chitosan-,protein-,and polysaccharide-based films,show excellent film-forming ability and compatibility with natural antimicrobials;smart systems with pH-sensing and UV-shielding functions further extend food shelf life.Despite remaining challenges such as cost,moisture sensitivity,limited scalability,and potential competition with food resources,recent progress demonstrates that biobased biodegradable plastics hold strong potential to advance sustainable,high-performance food packaging,particularly when waste is valorized.Future research should focus on improving the cost-effectiveness,scalability,and moisture resistance of biobased biodegradable plastics,while advancing waste-derived feedstocks,multifunctional smart packaging,and comprehensive life cycle assessments to ensure sustainable and practical food packaging solutions.

文摘This review draws attention to the innovative use of arrowroot(Maranta arundinacea)fiber as a unique and underutilized biomass source for nanocrystalline cellulose(NCC)-based nanocomposites,presenting a noteworthy alternative to extensively researched materials like wood pulp,bacterial cellulose,and chemically modified NCCs.In contrast to traditional sources,arrowroot possesses a naturally elevated cellulose and diminished lignin content,facilitating more effective NCC extraction requiring reduced chemical input and enabling environmentally friendly processing techniques.The review evaluates the performance of arrowroot-derived nanocomposites against systems documented in the literature,including NCC-based shape memory composites and nanoparticle-reinforced films,demonstrating enhanced tensile strength,improved moisture barrier properties,and thermal stability,as well as potential piezoelectric response.This study recognizes arrowroot as a viable option in the biomass-based nanocellulose sector,providing ecological and functional benefits while tackling significant issues such as process scalability and feedstock variability,thereby offering important insights for the advancement of sustainable materials.

文摘This study aims to synthesise,characterise and evaluate the performance characteristics of packaging films based on biodegradable natural resources incorporated with nanoparticles.Particularly,it is focused on the valorisation of the fibers from the underexploited Lonchocarpus cyanescens plant fromWest Africa as raw renewable lignocellulosebiomassmaterial source for the productionof carboxymethylcellulose(CMC).To this end,biodegradable films were prepared from CMC derived from the fibers of the Lonchocarpus cyanescens plant,and collagen.In order to improve the properties of these films,in particular their mechanical and humidity resistance and their ability to fight microbes,silver nanoparticles(Ag NPs),titanium dioxide nanoparticles(TiO2 NPs),as well as heterostructure Ag@TiO2 nanocomposite were incorporated.The different products obtained were characterised by differentmethods,including DLS,UV-VIS,SEM,contact angle,UTM,absorption and antimicrobial activity tests.The results show that the hybrid biocomposite films exhibit good mechanical properties,improved moisture resistance,and a significant antimicrobial effect against certain pathogenic bacteria.In particular,the synergy between Ag and TiO_(2) nanoparticles in the heterostructure Ag@TiO_(2) nanocomposite optimized the performance characteristics of the packaging films,particularly in terms of mechanical properties with a maximum stress of 38.77 MPa and a strain of 9%,low water absorption reaching 50% at 48 h,improved hydrophobic behaviorwith contact angle of 87°,and antimicrobial resistance compared with the control film without nanoparticles.This work highlights the valorisation of an underexploitedWest African local plant and contributes to the search for sustainable solutions for food packaging.

文摘Corn starch(CS)is a renewable,biodegradable polysaccharide valued for its film-forming ability,yet native CS films exhibit lowmechanical strength,highwater sensitivity,and limited thermal stability.This study improves CS-based films by blending with poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)or glycerol(GLY)and using citric acid(CA)as a green,non-toxic cross-linker.Composite films were prepared by casting CS–PVA or CS-GLY with CA at 0%-0.20%(w/w of starch).The influence of CA on physicochemical,mechanical,optical,thermal,and water barrier properties was evaluated.CA crosslinking markedly enhanced the tensile strength,water resistance,and thermal stability of CS-PVA films while increasing transparency in CS–GLY films.At 0.20%CA,the composite achieved 34.99MPa tensile strength,reducedwater vapor permeability,andminimized water uptake.FTIR confirmed ester bond formation between CAand hydroxyl groups of CS,PVA,and GLY,whereas thermal analysis showed higher decomposition temperatures and lower weight loss in crosslinked films.Increasing CA levels also decreased opacity and improved light transmittance,indicating greater homogeneity and reduced crystallinity.This dual-polymer matrix combined with a natural crosslinking strategy provides a sustainable route to high-performance,biodegradable CS-based packaging materials.
文摘Owing to superior breakdown voltage and excellent robustness,the betagallium oxide(β-Ga_(2)O_(3))power device has emerged as a pivotal research frontier in power electronics.Although advanced packaging strategies,including nanosilver paste sintering,alumina direct bond copper(DBC)substrates,and flipchip structures,have been adopted to mitigate the intrinsic low thermal conductivity ofβ-Ga_(2)O_(3).However,a further reduction in the thermal resistance while maintaining high reliability remains a challenge.This study introduces a novel packaging methodology that synergistically integrates nano-silver films with aluminum nitride active metal brazing(AMB-AlN)substrates,achieving an ultra-low junction-to-case thermal resistance.By comprehensive reliability assessments onβ-Ga_(2)O_(3) Schottky barrier diodes(SBDs)and hetero-junction diodes(HJDs),the results demonstrate that the SBDs and HJDs exhibit surge current densities of 0.876 kA/cm^(2) and 0.778 kA/cm^(2),respectively,which represents a significant advancement in device performance benchmarks.These advancements provide critical insights into packaging design for highreliability ultrawide bandgap semiconductor systems.

文摘The finite element method(FEM)is used to analyze the effects of lead widths and pitches on reliability of soldered joints.The optimum simulation for QFP devices is also researched.The results indicate that when the lead pitches are the same,the maximum equivalent stress of the soldered joints increases with the increasing of lead widths,while the reliability of the soldered joints reduces.When the lead widths are the same,the maximum equivalent stress of the soldered joints doesn't decrease completely with the increasing of lead pitches,a minimum value of the maximum equivalent stress values exists in all the curves.Under this condition the maximum equivalent stress of the soldewed joints is relatively the least,the reliability of soldered joints is high and the assembly is excellent.The simulating results indicate the best parameter:The lead width is 0.2 mm and lead pitch is 0.3 mm(the distance between two leads is 0.1 mm),which are benefited for the micromation of QFP devices now.The minimum value of the maximum equivalent stress of soldered joints exists while lead width is 0.25 mm and lead pitch is 0.35 mm(the distance between two leads is 0.1 mm),the devices can serve for a long time and the reliability is the highest,the assembly is excellent.The simulating results also indicate the fact that the lead width is 0.15 mm and lead pitch is 0.2 mm maybe the limit of QFP,which is significant for the high lead count and micromation of assembly.

文摘An ultrasonic test of spot welding for stainless steel is conducted. Based on wavelet packet decomposition, the ultrasonic echo signal has been analyzed deeply in time - frequency domain, which can easily distinguish the nugget from the corona bond. The 2D C-scan images produced by ultrasonic C scan which contribute to quantitatively calculate the nugget diameter for the computer are further analyzed. The spot welding nugget diameter can be automatically obtained by image enhancement, edge detection and equivalent diameter algorithm procedure. The ultrasonic detection values in this paper show good agreement with the metallographic measured values. The mean value of normal distribution curve is 0.006 67, and the standard deviation is 0.087 11. Ultrasonic C-scan test based on wavelet packet signal analysis is of high accuracy and stability.
