Abstract

THERMINIC Workshops are a series of events to discuss the essential thermal questions of microelectronic microstructures and electronic parts in general&#046; These questions are becoming more and more crucial with the increasing element density of circuits packaged together and with the move to nanotechnology&#046; These trends are calling for thermal simulation, monitoring and cooling&#046; Thermal management is expected to become an increasingly dominating factor of a system’s cost&#046; The growing power dissipated in a package, the mobile parts of microsystems raise new thermal problems to be solved in the near future necessitating the regular discussion of the experts in these fields&#046; Finally, there is an increasing need for accurate assessment of the boundary conditions used in the analysis of electronic parts, which requires a concurrent solution of the thermal behaviour of the whole system&#046; This year THERMINIC will address in addition to the “traditional” thermal management problems, also stress and thermal&#8211;stress&#8211;related&#8211;reliability issues, both in micro&#8211; and opto&#8211;electronics fields&#046; These issues, including various nanotechnology applications, are of significant importance and of high interest to the engineering community engaged in the field of thermal phenomens in “high&#8211;tech” systems&#046; The Workshop is sponsored by the IEEE Components, Packaging, and Manufacturing Technology Society and TIMA Laboratory&#046; <b>Keywords:</b> Thermal and Temperature Sensors<br>Thermal Simulation<br>Electro&#8211;thermal Simulation<br>Thermal Modelling and Investigation of Packages<br>Reliability Issues<br>High Temperature Electronics<br>Heat Transfer Education<br>Flow Visualisation Techniques<br>Turbulence Modelling in Complex Geometrics<br>Measurement of Thermal Properties<br>Acquisition and Analysis of Thermal data<br>Temperature Mapping<br>Novel and Advanced Cooling Techniques<br>Thermal Performance of Interconnects<br>Heat Transfer Enhancement<br>Validation of Thermal Software<br>Coupled (Thermo&#8211;mechanical, Thermo&#8211;optical, etc&#046;) Effects<br>Defect and Failure Modelling<br>Thermal Stress: Theory and Experiment<br>Thermal Stress Failures: Prediction and Prevention<br>Reliability Evolution and Prediction<br>Multiphysics Simulation<br>Nanoengineering Issues<br>Nanotechnology Applications<br>Education<br>
