The anisotropy of the micromechanical behavior of single-crystal Cu6Sn5was studied by nanoindentation and microcompression testing of pillars. Electron backscattered diffraction was employed to determine the crystallographic orientation and texture of Cu6Sn5nodules. Characterization results from orientation imaging mapping show that the growth direction of the nodules is somewhat aligned to thec-axis of the unit cell of Cu6Sn5, although a fair amount of deviation exists in several grains. Normal to the growth axis the orientation is random, indicating a fiber texture. The mechanical properties indicate a 20% increase in strength and 7% increase in Young’s modulus close to thec-axis relative to normal to thec-axis. Careful analysis of the results based on angle to thec-axis shows a linear decrease in strength with increasing deviation from thec-axis. Our results should help understanding and fracture modeling of Cu6Sn5under thermal and mechanical loading conditions.
