3DICs: What about the heat?

From the very earliest days of 3DIC development, experts have worried about thermal issues. A UCLA presentation stated in 2004: “Thermal Effects dramatically impact interconnect and device reliability.”  Some years later, researchers reaffirmed: “The most important issue in 3-D IC is heat dissipation.”

Solutions offered over the years have been many and varied — heat sinks, thermal interfaces, extreme silicon thinning, heat spreaders, microfluidics — and it’s still a hot topic.  In fact, the 2017 European 3D Summit devoted its entire R&D segment to Tackling the Thermal Management Challenge.
