  • Virtues of Indium as a Thermal Interface Material

    by Dr. Ronald C. Lasky, Amanda Whittemore

    The element indium is an ideal thermal interface material (TIM) for heat dissipation in many of today’s very fast, very hot integrated circuits. Its key advantage is its high bulk thermal conductivity, but other attributes include a low tensile strength and indium’s ability to lower melting temperatures when alloyed with other elements.
