Interconnect is one of the most important functions of packaging technology. It delivers power and signals into and out of electronic systems. The performance and reliability of microsystems are dependent on the interconnect quality. This paper reviews the chip-level interconnects based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs), this includes their applications for both on-chip and off-chip interconnects. Various...
Increasing power densities within microelectronic systems place an ever increasing demand on the thermal management. Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are used to fill air gaps at the interface between two materials, greatly increasing the thermal conductance when solid surface are attached together. The last decade has provided significant development on high-performing TIMs, and this paper makes...
The Electronic Conductive Adhesive (ECA) is a promising material as a substitute of traditional tin-lead solder, with many advantages outperforming tin-lead containing solder such as environmentally friendly, requiring much lower processing temperature and a much finer pitch. However, one critical problem related to ECA application is that the contact resistance increases significantly during an aging...
Continued miniaturization in combination with increased performance in microelectronics has generated an urgent need for improved thermal management techniques in order to maintain reliability in systems and devices. Thermal interface materials play a key role in the development of solutions for thermal management in microelectronics. In this paper, mechanical properties of a nanotechnology enhanced...
Heat dissipation has become a ‘bottleneck’ for the properties of electronics products and photoelectronic devices. Thermal interface material (TIM) plays a key role in heat dissipation, and must have flexibility and high thermal conductivity in order to decrease the thermal resistance of the interface between the device and heat sink or cooler. We developed a new type of nano-TIM based electrospun...
The need for faster, smaller, more reliable and efficient products has resulted in increased heat generated in microelectronic components. Removal of the heat generated is an important issue in electronic packaging. Therefore, a novel Nano-Thermal Interface Material was developed to improve this. This paper aims at studying the thermal performance of the new nano-structured polymer-metal composite...
With the continual increase in cooling demand for microprocessors, the microelectronics industry has been increasingly focused on the development of thermal solutions. Thermal Interface Material (TIM) plays a key role in reducing the thermal resistance of packaging and the thermal resistance between the electronic device and the external cooling components. Nano-TIM, a new type of thermal interface...
Since the invention of the integrated circuit increasing transistor integration density has been the main path to increased performance of microelectronic devices. With traditional transistor scaling approaching fundamental limitations, the field of electronic packaging has seen increasing effort towards increased integration density, e.g. three-dimensional packaging. Overall, this has led to tremendous...
Previous studies have discovered a unique type of nanostructured polymer-metal composite for thermal interface material with effective thermal conductivity of 8 W/mK. It is a promising result but extensive efforts are still required to further enhance the thermal conductivity. Therefore, this paper will try to help the process with modeling and simulation. Calculations reveal the alignment of the...
