L. Koller et al., OUTGASSING CHARACTERISTICS OF AU ELECTROPLATED PALLADEC-21 FOR USE INHERMETICAL ENCAPSULATED ELECTRONIC PARTS, Vacuum, 44(5-7), 1993, pp. 439-441
Outgassing characteristics of unbaked and baked Au electroplated alloy
Palladec 21 were studied at 135-degrees-C in a vacuum of 1 x 10(-6) m
bar in the experimental system, which was constructed and built for th
is purpose at IEVT The aim of this work was to determine their suitabi
lity for use as electrical contacts of miniature hermetic relays. AES
depth profile analysis revealed that the oxide layer on the Au electro
plated Palladec 21 alloy at these conditions is negligible.
