GOALI: Transient Adaptive Thermal Modeling of Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits with Experimental Validation and Measurements of Variable Thin-Film Thermal Properties

商用微波技术的发展依赖于可靠器件的设计，这就需要一种能够在器件级解析亚微米集成电路（ic）的空间和时间尺度的热分析技术。目前的能力不足以解决这些问题。拟议的GOALI研究项目将开发一种数值模拟方法来研究亚微米特征的瞬态传热，以及测量其热特性和提供温度数据以验证模拟的实验能力。GOALI研究项目是与德州仪器和惠普公司合作进行的。研究结果有可能促进对电子制造低成本设计的过程理解。

Raad 9632798 The development of the commercial microwave technology depends on the design of reliable devices, which requires a thermal analysis technique technology that is capable of resolving at the device level both the spatial and temporal scales of submicron Integrated Circuits (ICs). Current capabilities ate inadequate in addressing these issues. The proposed GOALI research project will develop a numerical simulation method to investigate transient heat transfer in submicron features as well as an experimental capability both to measure their thermal properties and to provide temperature data to validate the simulation. The GOALI research project is in collaboration with Texas Instruments and Hewlett-Packard. The outcome of the study has potential to advance the process understanding of low cost design for electronics manufacturing.
