The Silicon Integration Initiative (Si2) has announced the release of a new chip thermal interface protocol (CTIP) standard for three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D-IC) under the auspices of the Open3D Technical Advisory Board (TAB). The Open3D TAB is chartered to define open standards for design data formats and interfaces to enable interoperable 2.5D and 3D design … [Read more...]
New Thermoelectric Material May Boost Development of Green Technologies
New material properties discovered by researchers at the University of Miami may impact ongoing research into thermoelectric materials, which are useful in power generation, energy detection and refrigeration and cooling. Lead author Joshua Cohn, professor and chairman of the UM Department of Physics, and his colleagues report new properties of a metal known as lithium … [Read more...]
New Plastic Helps Prevent Phones from Overheating
A new plastic material could significantly reduce problems associated with overheating mobile phones, say researchers from Loughborough University in England. Known as ultra-high molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), the new plastic, unlike the ones currently used in mobile phone covers, dissipates the heat created by the lithium batteries and reduces the likelihood of … [Read more...]
