SEMI-THERM 2026:
Indium Corporation Product Manager, Engineered Solder Materials (ESM), Jim McCoy, will present techniques to minimize oxidation and improve the thermal conductivity and performance of pure indium at SEMI-THERM 2026, taking place March 9-12 in San Jose, California.
The presentation, Understanding Indium Oxidation and Its Impact on Precision Applications, will explore how deploying advanced, non-destructive measurement techniques, combined with strict packaging, handling, and environmental protocols, can reduce oxidation. These practices support consistent bonding performance and help manufacturers maintain peak thermal conductivity in applications where thermal and mechanical reliability are crucial.
As a product manager at Indium Corporation, McCoy pursues market opportunities for ESM products, develops competitive knowledge, and drives adoption of metal TIMs. He has a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Western New England University and an MBA in technology management from SUNY Polytechnic University. He is also Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt-certified.
SEMI-THERM 2026 visitors can attend McCoy’s presentation on Tuesday, March 10, at 11:40 a.m. PST. To learn more about Indium Corporation’s thermal interface materials, visit the website or booth #303 at the show.
