Description
In this course, we will look at phase diagrams and how they are used to determine the state of the material as a function of temperature and composition. We will also investigate how the microstructure and materials properties can be manipulated as a function of temperature and composition. A special focus will be on the eutectic phase diagram.
What you will learn
Phase Diagrams I & II
In this course, we will look at phase diagrams and how they are used to determine the state of the material as a function of temperature and composition. We will also investigate how the microstructure and materials properties can be manipulated as a function of temperature and composition. A special focus will be on the eutectic phase diagram.
Module 1: Diffusion and Its Mechanisms
In this module, we explain the concepts of solubility, solubility limit, saturation and solubility limit lines (solvus) on phase diagrams.
Module 2: Eutectic Phase Diagrams
The eutectic phase diagram is important for solder ball and inter-metal interconnects in semiconductor industry. In this module we discuss eutectic phase diagrams.
Module 3: Eutectic Microstructures
In this module, we examine eutectic microstructure and eutectic properties.
