Fabrication and characterization of highly thermal conductive Si3N4/diamond composite materials

Dandan Wu et al.

Summary: A novel composite material using Si3N4 as the substrate and diamond particles as reinforcement was developed to enhance thermal conductivity and mechanical properties. The Ti coating on diamond particles promoted the formation of a strong bond at the diamond-Si3N4 interface, preventing graphitization. A sandwiched structure with alternating Si3N4 and Si3N4/Ti-coated diamond layers was designed to enable directional heat conduction. The fabricated Si3N4/diamond composites showed a significant increase in thermal conductivity, making them suitable for high-performance electronic devices.

Intrinsic electron mobility and lattice thermal conductivity of β-Si3N4 from first-principles

Yuan Li et al.

Summary: Silicon nitride based materials have been investigated for their potential applications in high-power electronics and next-generation gate dielectrics. This study focuses on the crucial characteristics of electron mobility and lattice thermal conductivity of %-Si3N4 using first-principles calculations. The predicted electron mobility and averaged lattice thermal conductivity at 300 K are 228.4 cm2/Vs and 325.06 W/m center dot K, respectively, showing good agreement with literature data. The results reveal the strong temperature dependence of electron mobility and the dominant scattering mechanisms at different carrier concentrations, as well as the limitations imposed by nanoscale grain sizes on thermal transport properties.
