Observation of CMOS image sensor cross-section by mechanical polishing.

Due to the advantages and disadvantages, it is necessary to choose according to the sample form, observation range, purpose, etc.!

At our company, we created a cross-section of the CMOS image sensor component associated with VR goggles manufactured by Company A through mechanical polishing while keeping the component in its original state, and we conducted structural observations of the CMOS sensor component. During the observation of the sensor component structure and sensor surface, we removed the glass filter and observed the surface of the CMOS sensor, where it was noted that the arrangement of the color filters was in a configuration known as a Bayer filter. In addition to mechanical polishing, methods for creating cross-sections include processing with ion beams such as FIB and CP, as well as microtome methods. Consultations are free, so please feel free to contact us if you are unsure about the method for creating cross-sections.

You can closely observe the solder joint condition of electronic components on the implementation board and the internal structure of the components!

Our company conducts "cross-sectional observation of surface-mounted electronic components." Through cross-sectional observation after mechanical polishing, it is possible to closely examine the solder joint condition (presence of cracks and voids) of electronic components on the mounted substrate, as well as the internal structure of the components. For "SOP components," detailed observation can be made from the overall cross-section to the solder connection, while for "aluminum electrolytic capacitors," it is possible to observe the internal structure of the electrolytic capacitor components and their connection to the substrate. 【Features】 ■ SOP (Small Outline Package) components - Detailed observation can be made from the overall cross-section of SOP components to the solder connection. ■ Chip ceramic capacitors - Detailed observation can be made from cracks in the component material to cracks in the solder area. ■ Aluminum electrolytic capacitors - Observation can be made from the internal structure of the electrolytic capacitor components to their connection to the substrate. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Introducing the "Observation Mode" of a chip capacitor (MLCC) under a microscope!

We would like to introduce an example of cross-sectional observation of mounted components conducted by our company. Using commercially available computer circuit boards, we observed the solder joints of mounted components and the internal structures of the components with a metallurgical microscope. The observation modes of the metallurgical microscope include bright field observation, dark field observation, and polarized light observation, among others. Additionally, there are observations using transmitted light, and the observation mode is selected according to the sample. By conducting cross-sectional observations before and after reliability testing, we can evaluate the reliability of the product. When observing, it is important to select an appropriate "observation mode" to clearly capture the condition of the solder joint interface and defects such as cracks. [Case Overview] ■ Using commercially available computer circuit boards ■ Observing the solder joints of mounted components and the internal structures of the components with a metallurgical microscope ・Observation modes: bright field observation, dark field observation, polarized light observation, etc. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Wafer processing/polishing equipment

In civil engineering sites, workers stand for long periods and move around the site multiple times. Muddy and uneven ground makes walking difficult, leading to strain on the feet and back, as well as an increased risk of falls, so ensuring a stable work path is important. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering CLT materials that utilize laminated CLT wood. By laying them down in areas such as temporary roads, material storage sites, assembly areas, break areas, and worker pathways, they help reduce unevenness and mud, creating a more walkable environment. They possess surface characteristics unique to wood, providing a walking environment that differs from metal plates. The 5×10 panel weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of installation and removal. Additionally, they can be used to address environmental concerns such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and CO2 fixation, as well as measures against heatstroke. They are recommended for creating worker-friendly sites and innovative public works as a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A."

In civil engineering sites, due to the effects of rain and mud, temporary roads, access routes, and heavy machinery work yards can become slippery. To ensure the safety of vehicles and workers, it is important to choose appropriate mats for the site conditions and to improve the footing environment. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering CLT materials that utilize laminated timber. They possess surface characteristics unique to wood and can provide a non-slip footing environment that differs from metal steel plates. They can be used in a wide range of civil engineering sites, including temporary roads, vehicle entrances and exits, mud prevention, ground protection, heavy machinery scaffolding, and worker pathways. The 5×10 panel weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which contributes to labor-saving in installation and removal. It should be noted that slipperiness can vary depending on weather, slope, mud or oil adhesion, and installation conditions, so on-site verification and appropriate maintenance management are necessary. This wooden mat is registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A" and can be utilized for safety measures and creative ideas.
