Companies Team Up to Develop Adhesives to Create 3D Semiconductors
3M and IBM plan to jointly develop the first adhesives that can be used to package semiconductors into densely stacked silicon “towers.” The companies are aiming to create a new class of materials, which will make it possible to build commercial microprocessors composed of layers of up to 100 separate chips. Such stacking would allow for dramatically higher levels of … [Read more...]
Forced Convection Heat Sink Thinner than a Credit Card
Novel Concepts, Inc. has developed and has patents pending for the world's thinnest forced convection (fan cooled) heat sink dubbed ThinSink™. Thinner than a credit card, this low profile ThinSink cools integrated circuits, semiconductors, LEDs and other microelectronic heat generating devices. ThinSink has an amazing thermal performance of 2.73°C/W (degrees Centigrade per … [Read more...]
