Fluxless Direct Soldering of Transparent Conductive Oxides (TCOs) to Copper

Due to the combined advantages of low cost, good soldering properties, and appropriate melting temperature range, novel Sn8Zn3Bi1Mg active solder was developed for direct soldering of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) ceramic targets with oxygen-free copper at 200°C in air. The TCO specimens have a...
