Highly filled thermally conductive silicone gels are routinely used as first level thermal interface materials (TIMs) between the die and lid, in flip-chip organic packages. The main challenge for these TIMs is overcoming the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) mismatch between the die and lid materials. The TIMs must maintain excellent adhesion to both the die and lid surfaces in order to achieve and maintain optimal thermal performance. The CTE mismatch leads to increased mechanical stress and degradation of the TIM, which in turn degrades the thermal performance. In this work, the effective modulus of several TIMs was calculated by finite element modeling (FEM) in concert with mechanical testing of thin bond-line aluminum-TIM sandwiches subjected to varied stress conditions. These results are correlated to the corresponding stress die shear testing and the impact on package performance is analyzed.

This perspective article describes the application opportunities of carbon nanotube (CNT) films for the energy sector. Up to date progress in this regard is illustrated with representative examples of a wide range of energy management and transformation studies employing CNT ensembles. Firstly, this paper features an overview of how such macroscopic networks from nanocarbon can be produced. Then, the capabilities for their application in specific energy-related scenarios are described. Among the highlighted cases are conductive coatings, charge storage devices, thermal interface materials, and actuators. The selected examples demonstrate how electrical, thermal, radiant, and mechanical energy can be converted from one form to another using such formulations based on CNTs. The article is concluded with a future outlook, which anticipates the next steps which the research community will take to bring these concepts closer to implementation.
