Résumé

Over the past two decades, the miniaturization of microelectronic components and subcomponents has led to higher operating temperatures, greater heat generation, and an increase in thermally-induced failures due to the increases in thermal resistance. These resistances could be decreased through appropriate use of metallic or nonmetallic surface coatings or films. Several experimental investigations have been conducted for selected coating materials over a limited range of test conditions for specific applications. This paper assesses the potential for both metallic and non-metallic coating materials for use in the thermal enhancement or thermal isolation of metallic interfaces for microelectronic applications. Further, new experimental thermal contact conductance data for ceramic coated surfaces are presented with a measure of their thermal enhancement.
