Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy have developed a new technique that combines carbon nanotubes and organic materials to enable more efficient cooling of microprocessor chips. While carbon nanotubes have long been known to offer high thermal conductivity, widespread application in cooling systems has proven difficult because of their high thermal interface … [Read more...]
PCMA Thermal Interface for Intel Core LGA-115x Processors
Liquid cooling product manufacturer EK Water Blocks has released EK-TIM Indigo XS, a thermal interface material for Intel Core LGA-115x processors. Unlike greases, metallic thermal interface pads or liquid metal alloys, Indigo XS is a self-contained and sealed structure, deploying a phase-change metallic alloy (PCMA) which reflows and fills surface asperities on the CPU lid … [Read more...]
Heating Up Nanodevices May Keep Electronics Cool
As electronic devices have grown smaller and more powerful, new thermal management methods have been created to help prevent them from overheating; however, researchers and engineers are in a constant race to come up with new methods to adequately manage the increasing amount of heat being generated by shrinking next-generation devices. Now, scientists at University of … [Read more...]
New Ultrathin Material May Lead to Better Thermally Conductive Coatings
Scientists at Kansas State University have discovered a new ultrathin electrically conductive material they say may lead to advances in the efficiency of electronic and thermal devices. Vikas Berry, the William H. Honstead professor of chemical engineering, and his colleagues found that manipulating molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)—a three-atom-thick inorganic compound … [Read more...]
Thermal Management of Many-Core Processors Using Power Multiplexing
Man Prakash Gupta and Satish Kumar G.W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology INTRODUCTION Due to the growing demands of higher performance and faster computing, the number of cores in a microprocessor chip has been increasing consistently. The transition from single core to multi-core technology has already been observed in the past few … [Read more...]
