What Are Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) and Their Significance?
Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are used to enhance the thermal coupling between heat-generating components and heat sinks. Traditional TIMs include thermal greases and pads, but nanotechnology has led to the development of advanced TIMs, such as those incorporating carbon nanofibers or boron nitride nanosheets. These advanced TIMs provide higher thermal conductivities and better mechanical stability, ensuring efficient heat transfer.
