    Abstract: A SOLDER COMPOSITION AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF FORMATION. THE SOLDER COMPOSITION COMPRISES A SUBSTANTIALLY LEAD-FREE ALLOY THAT INCLUDES TIN (Sn), SILVER (Ag), AND COPPER. THE TIN HAS A WEIGHT PERCENT CONCENTRATION IN THE ALLOY OF AT LEAST ABOUT 90% THE SILVER HAS A WEIGHT PERCENT CONCENTRATION X IN THE ALLOY. X IS SUFFICIENTLY SMALL THAT FORMATION OF Ag3Sn PLATES IS SUBSTANTIALLY SUPPRESSED WHEN THE ALLOY INA LIQUEFIED STATE IS BEING SOLIDIFIED BY BEING COOLED TO A LOWER TEMPERATURE AT WHICH THE SOLID Sn PHASE IS NUCLEATED. THIS LOWER TEMPERATURE CORRESPONDS TO AN UNDERCOOLING oT RELATIVE TO THE EUTECTIC MELTING TEMPERATURE OF THE ALLOY. ALTERNATIVELY, X MAY BE ABOUT 4.0% OR LESS , WHEREIN THE LIQUIFIED ALLOY IS COOLED AT A COOLING RATE THAT IS HIGH ENOUGH TO SUBSTANTIALLY SUPPRESS Ag3Sn PLATE FORMATION IN THE ALLOY. THE COPPER HAS A WEIGHT PERCENT CONCENTRATION IN THE ALLOY NOT EXCEEDING ABOUT 1.5%.(FIG 16)

    Abstract: A solder composition and associated method of formation. The solder composition comprises a substantially lead-free alloy that includes tin (Sn) , silver (Ag), and copper. The tin has a weight percent concentration in the alloy of at least about 90 %. The silver has a weight percent concentration X in the alloy. X is sufficiently small that formation of Ag3Sn plates (57, 58 ) is substantially suppressed when the alloy in a liquefied state is being solidified by being cooled to a lower temperature at which the solid Sn phas e is nucleated. This lower temperature corresponds to an undercooling .delta.T relative to the eutectic melting temperature of the alloy. Alternatively, X may be about 4.0 % or less, wherein the liquefied alloy is cooled at a cooli ng rate that is high enough to substantially suppress Ag3Sn plate (57, 58) formation in the alloy. The copper has a weight percent concentration in the alloy not exceeding about 1.5 %.
