Electronic component for heat transfer by boiling and condensation, and manufacturing method

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The component has nanowires (13) with free ends used as heat exchange surfaces immersed in a heat transfer fluid (11) and formed on a base substrate (14). An electrically insulating and less thermal conducting coating material (12) partially coats the nanowires arranged between the substrate and the fluid, where the material is polymer or parylene coating. Each nanowire forms a thermocouple constituted of two coaxial branches in different materials, where the branches are separated by an electrically insulating layer (16) and electrically and individually connected at the nanowire free ends. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing an electronic component. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Electronic component i.e. thermo-electric converter, for heat transfer through boiling and condensation in a cooling device. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The nanowires form the thermocouple constituted of two coaxial branches that are separated by the electrically insulating layer and are electrically and individually connected at the free ends of the nanowires, thus permitting the nanowires of the electronic component to fulfill an improved thermoelectric generator function and an improved heat exchange function, and hence improving efficiency of the electronic component. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of an electronic component. 11 : Heat transfer fluid 12 : Electrically insulating and less thermal conducting coating material 13 : Nanowires 14 : Base substrate 16 : Electrically insulating layer.
