AT-Space: Innovative Thermal Management

AT-Space GmbH develops innovative components for satellites by using of advanced processing methods and the introduction of new materials. For thermal management the company works with DiaCool Composite Materials (MMCs) that shows thermal conductivities of 450-600W/mK by combining diamond particles and metal matrix of copper, silver or aluminiu.

Thermal expansion coefficient can be tailor-made to match other electronic components for efficient thermal management and CTE 6-10ppm/K can be adjusted, especially for widebandgap semiconductor devices that can profit from these properties.
