About the Webinar Series

Technical Scope
The goal of the webinar lectures will be to highlight topics within the electronic packaging and interconnect design pertinent to current research being conducted in the community. Each webinar will be co-presented by a two-person team of subject matter experts and will offer the opportunity to delve into the selected topic in more depth and discussion than would normally be achieved in the standard conference presentation setting. This program is based on the successful Lead-Free Solders and Interconnect Technology Workshop, held at the TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition for the past 12 consecutive years.

The topics have been chosen to target analysis and discussion of a broad variety of microelectronic materials design considerations in terms of applied metallurgy and microstructural control of interconnect devices. One of the main objectives of this webinar series is to provide enhanced conversations regarding the fundamentals of these topics for graduate students. The details and concepts covered can be readily applied by students and industry professionals alike in their research concerning lead-free solders and microelectronics systems.

Who Should Attend
Graduate students, researchers, academics, and industry professionals within the materials community who are already familiar with microelectronics packaging and interconnect design will all benefit from attending these webinar lectures and participating in the discussion on foundational topics and techniques within the field and projections of future design and experimental considerations. Additionally, the webinars aim to benefit the enhanced education and involvement of students in the electronics packaging community.
