Abstract
Mossbauer spectroscopy was used to characterize dispersion-strengthene d composite solder powders that were formed through hot gas spray atom ization. To perform quantitative measurements, we first measured the r elative recoilless fractions of eutectic solder and three intermetalli c compounds: Cu3Sn, Cu6Sn5, and Ni3Sn4. These results were then used t o determine the concentrations of intermetallic species present in var ious composite solder samples. Mossbauer spectroscopy was shown to be an effective:tool in the analysis of dispersion-strengthened composite solders and was preferentially sensitive to the presence of tin-based intermetallics and oxides.
