DESCRIPTION:Polymeric materials play a decisive role in the performance and
  lifetime of modern microelectronic systems. From PCB or IC substrate lami
 nates and encapsulation compounds to adhesives and functional layers\, the
 ir thermo-hygro-mechanical behavior strongly influences stress evolution\,
  warpage\, delamination\, and functional stability under service condition
 s. Modeling polymers in microelectronics\, therefore\, requires applicatio
 n-specific characterization combined with physics-based and multi-scale si
 mulation approaches.\n▸Based on advanced experimental methods\, material
  models are calibrated to describe flow\, curing\, thermo-(hygro-)mechanic
 al\, and degradation behavior.\n▸By linking global homogenized PCB model
 s with detailed local sub-models\, critical features can be assessed effic
 iently while maintaining computational feasibility.\n▸Modeling polymers 
 in microelectronics is a key enabler for physics-of-degradation understand
 ing\, reliability-driven design optimization\, and the development of robu
 st\, next-generation electronic systems.\n\nSpeaker(s): Peter\, \n\nAgenda
