Abstract

SEM, x-ray microprobe and EDS analysis was performed on a uniquely prepared joint of graphite soldered to copper with 60Sn-40Pb. The presented data shows a segregation of chromium out from the metallization paste to the graphite/solder interface. Dot maps of the other elemental species were also generated.
