A non-destructive study of crack development during thermal cycling of Al wire bonds using x-ray computed tomography

This paper concerns the non-destructive visualisation of the evolution of damage within ultrasonically bonded alumini-um wires using three dimensional x-ray computed tomography. We demonstrate the potential to observe the progressive accumulation of damage within the same wires during passive therma...
