Quantum takes a Helium 3 bath A team of researchers from National Physical Laboratory, Royal Holloway University of London, Chalmers University of Technology, and Google have found that immersing superconducting quantum circuits in a bath of Helium-3 (3He) can cool down quantum circuits to almost 100 times lower than was possible before, to achieve under a thousand of a degree above absolute z... » read more

Thermal Management Implications For Heterogeneous Integrated Packaging


As the semiconductor industry reaches lower process nodes, silicon designers struggle to have Moore's Law produce the results achieved in earlier generations. Increasing the die size in a monolithic system on chip (SoC) designs is no longer economically viable. The breakdown of monolithic SoCs into specialized chips, referred to as chiplets, presents significant benefits in terms of cost, yield... » read more
