With the increasing power density of electrical and electronic devices, there has been an urgent demand for the development of thermal interface materials (TIMs) with high through-plane thermal conductivity for handling the issue of thermal management. Graphene exhibited significant potential for the development of TIMs, due to its ultra-high intrinsic thermal conductivity. In this perspective, we introduce three state-of-the-art graphene-based TIMs, including dispersed graphene/polymers, graphene framework/polymers and inorganic graphene-based monoliths. The advantages and limitations of them were discussed from an application point of view. In addition, possible strategies and future research directions in the development of high-performance graphene-based TIMs are also discussed.

Abstract Under the action of electro-thermal-mechanical coupling, the failure and performance degradation of electronic devices are prone to occur, which has become a particularly important reliability problem in microelectronic packaging. The improvement of flip chip reliability by using thermal interface materials was studied. First, a three-dimensional finite element model of the flip-chip packaging system, and finite element simulation of electric-thermal-force multi-field coupling were conducted, and the Joule heating, temperature distribution, thermal stress and deformation of the flip-chip under high current density was analyzed. At the same time, the influence of thermal interface material thermal conductivity and operating current on flip chip reliability was studied. Then, the reliability experiment of the flip chip connected to the radiator under high current density was performed, and the temperature change in the flip chip under different thermal interface materials was obtained. Finally, through the combination of experiment and simulation, the influence of thermal interface materials on flip chip reliability was analyzed. It is further confirmed that the reliability and service life of electronic devices were effectively improved by using the high thermal conductivity BNNS/epoxy composite material prepared in this paper.
