The lab explores microjoining in electronics packaging, from materials to processes.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring microjoining, from materials to phenomena
The lab studies microjoining, from developing new joining materials for electronics packaging to establishing advanced joining processes and clarifying their mechanisms.
The lab creates joining materials with excellent functionality and high reliability, and builds new microjoining processes that use various energy sources.
It also investigates phenomena that occur at interfaces at the nano- and microscale, and works to improve the reliability of microjoints by controlling interface structure and function.
While building the fundamental science, the lab also develops applied technologies for practical use.
In the Graduate School of Engineering's lab directory, the lab is introduced under the name Microjoining Engineering Lab.
