Scientists in GE’s Global Research Center have demonstrated an advanced thermal material system that could lead to faster computing and higher performing electronic systems. They have fabricated a prototype substrate that can cool electronic devices, such as a laptop, twice as well as copper. The development of GE’s prototype substrate, which utilizes phase-change-based heat transfer, is part of a four-year, $6 million program funded by the Defense Advanced Research Program Agency (DARPA).

Electronics Cooling magazine has been providing a technical data column since 1997 with the intent of providing you, the readers, with pertinent material properties for use in thermal analyses. We have largely covered the most common materials and their associated thermal properties used in electronics packaging.
