International Business Machines has demonstrated several new technologies that the company hopes will help to cool down future microprocessors and other chip efficiently and without adding much to the cost.

Chips used in various electronics devices are becoming more and more complex in terms of transistor count as well as fast in terms of clock-speeds. Even though major chipmakers are utilizing various approaches to cut power consumption of microprocessors, one of the problems is power output density. Perhaps, 100W is not a lot, but what about removing them constantly from several square millimeters? IBM says it knows how to resolve the issue.
