Heat Dissipation

Efficient thermal management is a critical challenge in modern integrated circuit (IC) design and advanced packaging technologies due to increasing power density and device miniaturization. This topic focuses on the simulation and analysis of heat dissipation behavior across semiconductor devices and packaging structures to ensure reliability, performance, and lifetime stability.

The work involves developing multiphysics models to study heat generation, conduction, and dissipation within IC components, interconnects, and packaging materials. Various cooling strategies, material selections, and structural designs are evaluated to optimize thermal performance under different operating conditions.

Simulation tools such as COMSOL Multiphysics, ANSYS (e.g., Icepak, Mechanical), and MATLAB are utilized to perform finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and numerical modeling. These tools enable accurate prediction of temperature distribution, thermal resistance, and hotspot formation, supporting design optimization and failure prevention.

This research contributes to the development of high-performance, thermally reliable electronic systems, particularly in applications such as high-speed computing, power electronics, and heterogeneous integration.
