- In this work, silicon microchannel coolers were made using the Deep Ion Reactive Etching (DIRE) technique. Stable and homogeneous Carbon NanoTube (CNT) suspension was also prepared. Meanwhile, a closed-loop cooling test system was developed to investigate the heat removal of the silicon microchannel cooler with different coolants. The experimental setup included a test module, a minipump for providing controllable flow, and a fan system for cooling the circular fluid. Beside the inlet and outlet of the test module, two thermocouples and pressure gauges were set up to measure the temperature and pressure of the fluids. The heat removal of the silicon microchannel cooler using different CNT volume fraction of suspension coolant was studied. The results show that the microchannel cooler with CNT suspension as coolant could strengthen the heat removal capability of microchannel cooler. In addition to heat transfer enhancement, the microchannel cooler with CNT suspension coolant did not produce extra pressure drop in the present study.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Almost 15 years have gone ever since the discovery of graphene as a single atom layer. Numerous papers have been published to demonstrate its high electron mobility, excellent thermal and mechanical as well as optical properties. We have recently seen more and more applications towards using graphene in commercial products. This paper is an attempt to review and summarize the current status of the research of the thermal properties of graphene and other 2D based materials including the manufacturing and characterization techniques and their applications, especially in electronics and power modules. It is obvious from the review that graphene has penetrated the market and gets more and more applications in commercial electronics thermal management context. In the paper, we also made a critical analysis of how mature the manufacturing processes are; what are the accuracies and challenges with the various characterization techniques and what are the remaining questions and issues left before we see further more applications in this exciting and fascinating field.

Toward ultrahigh thermal conductivity graphene films
- 2023

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- With increasing demands of high-performance and functionality, electronics devices generate a great amount of heat. Thus, efficient heat dissipation is crucially needed. Owing to its extremely good thermal conductivity, graphene is an interesting candidate for this purpose. In this paper, a two-step temperature-annealing process to fabricate ultrahigh thermal conductive graphene assembled films (GFs) is proposed. The thermal conductivity of the obtained GFs was as high as 3826 +/- 47 W m(-1) K-1. Extending the time of high-temperature annealing significantly improved the thermal performance of the GF. Structural analyses confirmed that the high thermal conductivity is caused by the large grain size, defect-free stacking, and high flatness, which are beneficial for phonon transmission in the carbon lattice. The turbostratic stacking degree decreased with increasing heat treatment time. However, the increase in the grain size after long heat treatment had a more pronounced effect on the phonon transfer of the GF than that of turbostratic stacking. The developed GFs show great potential for efficient thermal management in electronics devices.

Graphene Based Heat Spreader for High Power Chip Cooling Using Flip-chip Technology
- 2013

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Monolayer graphene was synthesized through thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) as heat spreader for chip cooling. Platinum (Pt) serpentine functioned as hot spot on the thermal testing chip. The thermal testing chip with monolayer graphene film attached was bonded using flip-chip technology. The temperature at the hot spot with a monolayer graphene film as heat spreader was decreased by about 12°C and had a more uniform temperature compared to those without graphene heat spreader when driven by a heat flux of about 640W/cm 2 . Further improvements to the cooling performance of graphene heat spreader could be made by optimizing the synthesis parameters and transfer process of graphene films. © 2013 IEEE.

Room Temperature Transfer of Carbon Nanotubes on Flexible Substrate
- 2012

In: Proceedings of the 18th Therminic International Workshop on Thermal Investigations of ICs and Systems, Budapest, 25-27 September 2012. - 9782355000225 ; , s. 213-216

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper we report a novel method of transferring thermally grown vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VA-CNTs) onto flexible substrates at room temperature with a single-step process. The transfer process is carried out by placing the CNT forests upside down on a double sided thermal release adhesive tape and peeling off the silicon substrate. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to observe the transfer results. Also a second transfer using the same method but a thermal tape with higher release temperature is repeated on the as-transferred CNTs forests. The results show that this method is able to provide a novel process for transferring CNT forests at room temperature. This process will help to bring close the low cost fabrication of vertically aligned CNT structures for electronics.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are an ideal candidate for electrical interconnects due to their extraordinary thermal, electrical and mechanical properties. In this work, as-densified CNT bumps were applied as chip on film (COF) interconnection material. A silicon chip with patterned CNT bumps was bonded onto a flexible substrate using anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACA) with bonding pressure, at 127.4 MPa, 170 °C and for 8 seconds. The electrical properties of this structure were evaluated by measuring the contact resistance of each bump using the four-point probe method. Thermal cycling (-40∼85°C, 1000 cycles) and damp heat tests (85°C/85% RH, 1000 hours) were conducted to evaluate the reliabilities of the CNT-COF structure bonded with ACA. The average contact resistances of two samples used for the reliability tests were 226 mΩ and 260mΩ. No electrical failure was observed after the damp heat test and only two were observed after the thermal cycling test. The average contact resistance was increased only 15.7% and 13.8%, respectively, after the thermal cycling and the damp heat tests. © 2013 IEEE.
