固体微/纳米尺度传热理论研究进展

随着半导体技术的飞速发展,器件的尺寸已进入到微/纳米尺度。由于量子效应、表面及界面效应,使得微尺度下的热物性与宏观尺度下有了明显的区别。人们针对微观传热领域的特点,发展了声子玻尔兹曼传输方程、分子动力学等方法,取得了一定的成果,但仍存在不少问题。一些基础概念问题,特别是非平衡态下的局域温度的定义,有待澄清。本文主要回顾近年来微/纳米尺度传热在理论和数值模拟方面的进展,以及目前所面临的挑战和问题。     

Self-Assembly of Micro-Parts onto Si Substrates at Liquid-Liquid Interface

We report a new approach for the self-assembly of cuboid micro-parts onto Si substrates to construct three-dimensional microstructures. To perform assembly, the Si substrates are prepared with a deep cavity array as binding sites. An aggregate composed of hundreds of uniformly aligned micro-parts is formed at the C10F18-H2O interface. The micro-parts are arranged by passing the substrate through the aggregate of micro-parts, thus the micro-parts are left on the substrate, and then the substrate is vibrated ultrasonically in the solution, making it possible for the micro-parts to fall into the cavities on the substrate. Finally the substrate is pulled out of the solution after assembly. This technique could give a high yield of up to 70%, providing a new method for micro-assembly.     

Calculation of Specific Heat for Aluminium Thin Films

We employ Prasher＇s non-dimensional form to analyse the size effects on specific heat of Al thin films. Compared the calculation results of pure aluminium film with the experimental data, it is found that the reduction of phonon states is not the main reason of the size effect on the specific heat Al thin films with thickness from lOnm to 37Onm. However, the Al thin film in air usually has an oxidation layer and the specific heat of the layer is smaller than Al. By including the contribution of the oxidation layer to the thin-film specific heat, the calculation results are much closer to the experimental data. This may be a possible reason of the size effects on specific heat of Al thin films.
