Appl. No.:

11/748867

Inventors:

Carlos Dangelo - Los Gatos CA, US
Jason Spitzer - San Jose CA, US

Assignee:

Nanoconduction, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

H01L 23/34

US Classification:

257722, 165 803, 257E21499, 257E23097, 257E23101, 257706, 257707, 257721, 438122, 977932

Abstract:

An enhanced heat transposer comprised is of a vapor chamber. The surface of the vapor chamber that holds the fluid comprises an array of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) that are grown in a way that enables the fluid to come into maximum contact with the CNTs. The fluid evaporates in the sealed vapor chamber when it is in touch with a hot surface. The vapor comes in contact with a hollow pin-fin structure that provides additional surface area for vapor cooling and heat transfer. The condensed vapor then drops back into the fluid container, and the cycle continues.

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus for preconditioning a lithium niobate or lithium tantalate crystal. At least a portion of a surface of the crystal is covered with a condensed material including one or more active chemicals. The crystal is heated in a non-oxidizing environment above an activating temperature at which the active chemicals contribute to reducing the crystal beneath the covered surface portion. The crystal is cooled from above the activating temperature to below a quenching temperature at which the active chemicals become essentially inactive for reducing the crystal.
