Indium Experts to Present Advanced Research at International Symposium on Microelectronics
September 20, 2024 | IndiumEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Indium Corporation experts will lead three presentations and a poster presentation at the 57th International Symposium on Microelectronics, organized by the International Microelectronics Assembly and Packaging Society (IMAPS), from October 1-3, in Boston, Massachusetts.
The first presentation, titled Novel Innovative Thermal Interface Materials for Bare Die Processors and Applications Methods, will be co-presented by Indium Corporation Global Account Manager, Tim Jensen, and Senior Product Specialist for Thermal Interface Materials, Miloš Lazić. This session will focus on the latest developments in metallic thermal interface materials (TIMs) intended primarily for use as a TIM1.5 and associated assembly processes.
The second presentation, titled Liquid Metal Jetting for High-Performance Computing Applications, will be delivered by Lazić and co-author Sunny Agarwal, ITW EAE. It outlines the challenges faced during liquid metal dispensing in high-volume manufacturing, and how to control several variables that affect dispensing for higher throughput and process reliability.
The third presentation, Study of Thermal Conductivity and Reliability of InAg Soldering Thermal Interface Material by Reflow Process in Formic Acid Atmosphere for TIM1 IC Module Package, will be delivered by Indium Corporation Senior Chemist in Thermal Interface Materials/R&D, Guangyu Fan, and R&D Assistant Manager for Thermal Interface Materials and Senior Metallurgist, Dr. Jie Geng. This session will explore the impact of different compositions of InAg alloys and bondline thickness (BLT) on voiding performance, delamination, and thermal conductivity of the soldered joints, to include the reliability results.
Additionally, Jensen co-authored a poster presentation, Developments in Thermal Interface Materials for Liquid Immersion Systems, that explores which common organic and polymeric materials within server systems are identified as principal fluid contaminants and, specifically, what TIM types are suitable and compatible for use without contaminating the immersion fluid. Examples of processors and immersion systems, illustrations of TIM2 applications for processors within immersion systems for boiling enhancement components, and supporting references will be provided.
