Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100180782Printing in a Medium - A method for transferring a pattern from an elastic stamp to a substrate in the presence of a third medium is described. A proximity contact is achieved between the stamp and the substrate. A layer of the third medium between the stamp and the substrate is controlled to a predetermined thickness. Stamps for carrying out this method are also described.07-22-2010
20100241278VARIABLE FLOW COMPUTER COOLING SYSTEM FOR A DATA CENTER AND METHOD OF OPERATION - Disclosed herein is a data center having a plurality of liquid cooled computer systems. The computer systems each include a processor coupled with a cold plate that allows direct liquid cooling of the processor. The cold plate is further arranged to provide adapted flow of coolant to different portions of the processor whereby higher temperature regions receive a larger flow rate of coolant. The flow is variably adjusted to reflect different levels of activity. By maximizing the coolant temperature exiting the computer systems, the system may utilize the free cooling temperature of the ambient air and eliminate the need for a chiller. A data center is further provided that is coupled with a district heating system and heat is extracted from the computer systems is used to offset carbon emissions and reduce the total cost of ownership of the data center.09-23-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100037461PATTERNED STRUCTURE FOR A THERMAL INTERFACE - A method for producing a plate with a first face with protrusions confined by first and second grooves includes steps of: etching recessed zones into a plate; depositing a photoresist layer on the plate; forming a passivation layer over the photoresist layer; removing the passivation layer at the bottom of the recessed zones; electroplating metal in the recessed zones; removing the passivation layer; removing the photoresist layer; and removing the semiconductor material to expose the first and second grooves.02-18-2010
20100148358SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE WITH A HIGH THERMAL DISSIPATION EFFICIENCY - A semiconductor device having a higher thermal dissipation efficiency includes a thermally conducting structure attached to a surface of the semiconductor device via soldering. The thermally conducting structure is essentially formed of a thermally conducting material and comprises an array of freestanding fins, studs or frames, or a grid of connected fins. A process for fabricating such a semiconductor device includes forming a thermally conducting structure on a carrier and attaching the thermally conducting structure formed on the carrier to a surface of the semiconductor device via soldering.06-17-2010
