Abstract:A reliability analysis of silver diamond composites in terms of both thermal and mechanical properties is presented. This new material is an attractive solution for power electronics packaging, because an improvement of 50% in terms of thermal management and channel temperature can be obtained when using silver diamond composites as a base plate in packages compared with the more traditionally used materials such as CuW. However, to date, little is known about the reliability of this new material, such as chan… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
