Abstract :
The temperature rise in silicon devices under pulsed power conditions is calculated by a numerical method which takes into account the nonlinear properties of the materials. Power is assumed to be dissipated in a thin but finite layer at the surface of a one-dimensional structure. The effect of various types of heat sinks on the peak temperature rise is shown.
