Manipulating the interfacial structure is vital to enhancing
the
interfacial thermal conductance (G) in Cu/diamond
composites for promising thermal management applications. An interconnected
interlayer is frequently observed in Cu/diamond composites; however,
the G between Cu and diamond with an interconnected
interlayer has not been addressed so far and thus is attracting extensive
attention in the field. In this study, we designed three kinds of
interlayers between a Cu film and a diamond substrate by magnetron
sputtering coupled with heat treatment, including a W interlayer,
an interconnected W–W2C interlayer, and a W2C interlayer, to comparatively elucidate the relationship
between the interfacial structure and the interfacial thermal conductance.
For the first time, we experimentally measured the G between Cu and diamond with an interconnected interlayer by a time-domain
thermoreflectance technique. The Cu/W–W2C/diamond
structure exhibits an intermediate G value of 25.8
MW/m2 K, higher than the 19.9 MW/m2 K value
for the Cu/W2C/diamond structure and lower than the 29.4
MW/m2 K value for the Cu/W/diamond structure. The molecular
dynamics simulations show that the G of the individual
W2C/diamond interface is much higher than those of the
individual Cu/diamond and W/diamond interfaces and W2C
could reduce the vibrational mismatch between Cu and diamond; however,
the G of the Cu/W2C/diamond structure
is reduced by the lower thermal conductivity of W2C. This
study provides insights into the relationship between the interconnected
interfacial structure and the G between Cu and diamond
and offers guidance for interface design to improve the thermal conductivity
in Cu/diamond composites.

“…[4][5][6] D reinforced metal matrix composites, in particular, are frequently used in cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and electronic packaging materials. [7][8][9] However, because of their poor wettability, D and metal are difficult to obtain a strong interface bonding, making it difficult to improve the properties of composites. [10] Therefore, to improve the performance of composites, it is necessary to improve the interface bonding state between D and metal.…”
To obtain a high‐quality TiC coating on the diamond (D) surface and improve the interfacial properties of metal matrix composites, the optimized molten salt method is used to prepare TiC coatings on the D surface. The effects of NaCl, KCl, and NaCl–KCl molten salts on the uniformity, surface morphology, composition, and bonding ability of TiC coatings are investigated by scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS), X‐ray diffraction, and cold–hot cycling experiments. The results show that the boiling and pickling processes after the molten salt reaction can effectively remove the residual chloride salts and Ti powders to obtain clean TiC‐coated D. The TiC particles of the coating surfaces prepared by NaCl and KCl molten salts are finer and more uniform, which is due to their higher melting points and shorter real reaction time compared with NaCl–KCl mixed salts. The TiC coating prepared by KCl has the best bonding ability and can withstand 50 times as many cold–hot cycles due to its uniform fine deposition particles and appropriate thickness. And, during cold–hot cycles, it can be found that the TiC coating cracking and shedding occur primarily at the edges and corners of the D with internal thermal stress concentration.
