Some of the biggest breakthroughs in future tech revolve around
some of the smallest materials on Earth. Even calling these
technologies "micro" is magnitudes of measure larger than their
actual tiny sizes. From the nano-scaled heat transfer of
Nanowick Cooling down to the single atomic-level of Graphene and
Quantum Computing, our white papers will help you wrap your head
around the maximum potential of these miniscule technologies. A
micro solution to a macro problem Heat is the enemy of modern
electronics. As integrated circuits consume more electrical
power and become ever smaller, with their constituent components
packed closer and closer together, they generate more and more
heat. If that thermal energy isn't effectively dissipated, it
will damage and eventually destroy the circuitry. Today's most
popular cooling solutions utilize heatsinks and heat pipes,
often augmented by powered fans. But that technology is rapidly
reaching its practical limit and is threatening to impede the
chip industry's progress
