Evaluation of Thermal Properties of the Fe80Cr20 Nanostructure for Interconnect Application in High Temperature

Abstract

Metallic Fe80Cr20 alloy in thermal stability analysis is investigated. Approached method is combination technique (milled and UT) of ball milling (milled) combined with ultrasonic technique (UT) which is not yet fully explored. From Energy Dispersive x-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis resulted that the composition of 80 wt% Fe and 20 wt% Cr in individual particle was achieved at milled and UB 4.5 h sample. Higher thermal stability of treated samples approximately 63% at 1100 °C temperature operation which showed by milled and UT at 4.5 h when compared to raw material. Combination technique shown high prospect to advance exploration in improving thermal stability which suitable for interconnect application.
