MicroStructures or MicroSystems Technology MST is an outgrowth of semiconductor technology. It was found, over twenty years ago, that selective doping and etching could produce three-dimensional elements on a silicon wafer and, that by utilizing "sacrificial" layers, it was possible to selectively undercut some of these elements to allow them...
IBM Labs is taking water cooling to another level–and pumping water into each layer of a semiconductor via pipes as thin as a human hair. On Thursday, IBM said that its researchers–along with Fraunhofer Institute in Berlin–demonstrated a prototype that integrates a water cooling system direction into...
