Bond Pad Failure
TOF-SIMS spectra of mass-to-change ratio versus intensity. The peaks due to siloxane are clearly present in the failure area.
SIMS Images
TOF-SIMS maps of elemental aluminum and silicon and siloxane show the distribution of the contaminant on the surface.
Siloxane is mapped distinctly from elemental silicon.
