Abstract
A method of cooling a device with a cooling unit, using a metal sherbet, which is metal being in a state of a two-phase composition consisting of a liquid phase and a solid phase, as a heat conducting body put between the cooling unit and the heat generating device for transferring heat generated in the device to the cooling unit. The metal sherbet is metal, such as an In-Ga binary system, in which solids of an In-Ga solid solution are dispersed in an In and Ga liquid at a temperature obtained under normal operations of the device and the cooling unit.
