by MP Divakar, PhD, Stack Design Automation Technical Editor, Electronics Cooling Online Most electronics cooling problems are not just limited to the computation of temperatures at various points and the design remedies thereof. They also extend to managing the collateral effects of temperature fluctuations. One such effect is the mobilization of thermomechanical stresses in … [Read more...]
Tech Brief: Commercially-available Thermally Enhanced Polymer Composite Materials Characteristics
Peter Rodgers, Editor Valérie Eveloy, The Petroleum Institute Introduction The development, characterization, and implementation of polymer composite materials for the thermal management of electronic equipment has recently began to attract attention [1,2]. The enhanced thermal conductivity, low density, low cost, ease of manufacture and corrosion resistance of polymer … [Read more...]
Temporary Bonding Adhesive for Thin Wafer Handling Introduced
AI Technology has developed specialized tools and equipment to handle thin wafers and thin reconstituted wafers. A series of temporary bonding materials can process temperatures up to 150 Cº, and are well accepted for grinding, dicing, etching, and deposition. AIT’s high temperature wafer processing adhesives (WPA) handle higher temperature processing, and can withstand … [Read more...]
Thermal Conductor Research Project Joined by UH Physicist
(July 21, 2016) University of Houston’s MD Anderson Professor and physicist, Zhifeng Ren, has joined the $7.5 million collaboration to develop a material with a higher conductivity than diamonds. “Earlier research conducted in this field has anticipated the potential of boron arsenide to be a better thermal conductor than diamonds,” said Ren, “David Broido, a Boston College … [Read more...]
Combination of Two Insulators Could Enable More Efficient Heat Management
(July 28, 2016) Recently, “researchers at the University of Utah and the University of Minnesota have discovered that when two oxide compounds—strontium titanate (STO) and neodymium titanate (NTO)—are joined together, they make an extraordinary conductive material that could vastly improve power transistors,” according to Spectrum.IEEE.org. By themselves, each material … [Read more...]
