(author)Thermal material properties play a fundamental role in the thermal management of microelectronic systems. The porous nature of carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays results in a very high surface area to volume ratio, which makes the material attractive for surface driven heat transfer mechanisms. Here, we report on the heat transfer performance of...journal article 2016

(author)This paper presents a microhotplate working up to 1200 °C with improved temperature uniformity by optimizing the geometry of the thin-film resistor. By varying the linewidth of meandering resistive tracks, heat is generated in such a way to have more homogenous temperature distribution. The microhotplates are fabricated using molybdenum as...journal article 2011
