Indium Expert to Present at Electronic Components and Technology Conference
May 28, 2018 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation expert, Dr. Ning-Cheng Lee, Vice President of Technology, will present at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 68th Electronic Components and Technology Conference (ECTC) from May 29 to June 1 in San Diego, California, USA.
Dr. Lee will lead the professional development course, Achieving High-Reliability of Lead-Free Solder Joints—Materials Considerations. The course is designed to help attendees understand the various factors of materials, thus enabling the best selection of the proper solder alloys and surface finishes for achieving high-reliability solder joints.
Dr. Lee will present Nano-Cu Sintering Paste for High Power Devices Die Attach Applications. The paper examines how a nano-Cu pressureless sintering paste, developed specifically for joint formation applications, performed when subjected to a variety of tests for oxidation resistance.
Dr. Lee is also presenting Novel Solder Alloy with Wide Service Temperature Capability for Automotive Applications. His interactive presentation reports on the development, testing, and results of Indalloy®276, a lead-free solder alloy created to target wide service temperatures with high reliability.
Dr. Lee is a world-renowned soldering expert, an SMTA Member of Distinction, and IEEE Fellow. He has extensive experience in the development of fluxes, alloys, and solder pastes for SMT, and extensive experience in the development of high-temperature polymers, encapsulants for microelectronics, underfills, and adhesives. In addition to SMT and semiconductor soldering materials, his research also extends to nanobonding technology and thermal conductive materials.
A paper co-authored by Indium Corporation’s Francis Mutuku, Research Metallurgist, will also be presented at the conference.

Driving Innovation: Direct Imaging vs. Conventional Exposure
07/01/2025 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationMy first camera used Kodak film. I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
