Solar-Powered Lasers Use Heat Sink for Cooling
A researcher in Uzbekistan has proposed a plan for solar-powered lasers using small parabolic mirrors about 3 feet in diameter, combined with new two-layer ceramic disks to produce laser light. When sunlight hits the ceramic material, it excites the electrons and causes them to emit laser light of a specific wavelength. To control the heat, the ceramic disk would be mounted … [Read more...]
Multilayer circuitry on metal substrates
Today's electronics are becoming smaller and faster, resulting in increased power densities and greater risk of thermal problems. Thermal dissipation requirements thus need to be satisfied by the use of several cooling mechanisms. The cooling systems may include conduction, convection and radiation cooling. Conduction can be the most efficient mode of heat transfer and about … [Read more...]
