The carbide forming is proposed to improve interfacial bonding between diamond particles and copper-matrix for diamond/copper composites. The volume fraction of diamond and minor titanium are optimized. The microstructures, thermal properties, interface reaction production and its effect of minor titanium on the properties of the composites are investigated. The results show that the bonding force and thermal conductivity of the diamond/Cu-Ti alloys composites is much weaker and lower than that of the coated-diamond/Cu. the thermal conductivity of coated-60 vol. % diamond/Cu composites is 618 W/m K which is 80 % of the theoretical prediction value. The high thermal conductivity has been achieved by forming the titanium carbide at diamond/copper interface to gain a good interface.

AbstractThermal conductivity and electrical resistivity of 1 μm long aluminum nanowires, 75, 100, and 150nm in width and 100nm thick, were measured at room temperature. The method consists of microfabricated electrothermal test devices and a model-based data processing approach using finite-element analysis (FEA). The electrical and thermal properties of the nanowires differ significantly from bulk values while electrical resistivity agrees well with theoretical prediction. Electron transport equation models, which adequately describe the resistivity data, consistently underestimate the thermal conductivity. Incorporating a phonon contribution of ˜ 21 W/m·K to the total thermal conductivity is found to accurately describe the measured values.
