Abstract

A high-performance thermal interface material comprising a heterogeneous copper-tin nanowire array that is ultra-compliant and that can reduce thermal resistance by two times as compared with the state-of-the-art thermal interface materials. The high-performance thermal interface material can be further used in electronic systems, ranging from microelectronics to portable electronics to massive data centers, to operate at lower temperatures, or at the same temperature but with higher performance and higher power density.
