Dr. Patrick Shamberger, assistant professor at Texas A&M University, has found an “analytical solution to heat transfer in PCMs (Phase Change Materials) used in thermal energy storage and has identified the relative role of thermo-physical properties of different materials,” according to Phys.org. Shamberger is one of the lead researchers studying high-energy storage … [Read more...]
Thermal Invisibility Cloak Improves Heat Distribution in Electronics
A team of researchers from the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore has developed a thermal invisibility cloak that would improve heat distribution in electronic devices by redirecting incoming heat. The cloaks are capable of guiding heat around a hidden object, thus resulting in complete thermal invisibility. “Based on carefully engineered metamaterials – … [Read more...]

Effective Heat Spreading Angle
Dirk Schweitzer, Infineon Technologies AG, Am Campeon 1-12, 85579 Neubiberg, Germany dirk.schweitzer@infineon.com Introduction To accurately compute the thermal resistance of a layered structure, such as the Junction-to-Case thermal resistance of a power semiconductor, the heat spreading inside the structure has to be considered. The calculation of the spreading resistance is … [Read more...]
Lithium Atoms Turn Graphene into a Superconductor
Physicists in Canada and Germany have proved that graphene turns into a superconductor when ‘decorated’ with lithium atoms, which could lead to a new generation of superconducting nanoscale devices, according to Nanotechweb.org. In 2005, physicists demonstrated that when chemically treated, graphite could exhibit superconducting properties. “Theorists identified the … [Read more...]
