According to one embodiment, a metallic particle paste includes a polar solvent and particles dispersed in the polar solvent and containing a first metal. A second metal different from the first metal is dissolved in the polar solvent.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques and configurations for a computing system with a thermal interface having magnetic particles. In some embodiments, the computing system may include a first part, a second part, and a thermal interface to couple the first and second parts. The thermal interface may comprise a thermal interface material having magnetic particles that are aligned in a defined direction relative to a surface of the first or second part, to provide desired thermal conductivity between the first and second parts. The defined direction of alignment of magnetic particles may comprise an alignment of the particles substantially perpendicularly to the surface of the first or second part. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A method for high temperature bonding of substrates may include providing a top substrate and a bottom substrate, and positioning an insert between the substrates to form a assembly. The insert may be shaped to hold at least an amount of Sn having a low melting temperature and a gap shaped to hold at least a plurality of metal particles having a high melting temperature greater than the low melting temperature. The assembly may be heated to below the low melting temperature and held for a first period of time. The assembly may further be heated to approximately the low melting temperature and held for a period of time at a temperature equal to or greater than the low melting temperature such that the amount of Sn and the amount of metal particles form one or more intermetallic bonds. The assembly may be cooled to create a bonded assembly.

A method of making a micro-transfer printed structure includes providing a destination substrate and a source substrate having one or more micro-transfer printable components. A layer of volatile adhesive is formed over the destination substrate and one or more components are micro-transfer printed from the source substrate onto the volatile adhesive layer at a non-evaporable temperature of the volatile adhesive layer. The volatile adhesive layer is then heated to an evaporation temperature to evaporate at least a portion of the volatile adhesive after micro-transfer printing. In certain embodiments, a micro-transfer printed structure includes a destination substrate having one or more metal contacts and one or more micro-transfer printable components having one or more component contacts disposed on the destination substrate with the metal contact aligned with the component contact. The metal contact can form an intermetallic bond with the component contact.
