Research Suggests Ferroelectric Crystals May Assist with Computer Chip Heat Regulation
Researchers at the Carnegie Institution in Washington, D.C. have discovered a new, efficient way to extract heat using ferroelectric crystals. The crystal materials exhibit an electrical polarization in the absence of an electrical field that can be reversed by applying an external electrical field, resulting in a significant temperature change. Ronald Cohen, staff scientist … [Read more...]
