Zusammenfassung: | A memory device comprises multiple memory dice arranged vertically in a stack of memory dice and at least one thermoelectric die contacting the bulk silicon layer of at least one of the memory dice of the multiple memory dice. Each memory die of the multiple memory dice includes an active circuitry layer that includes memory cells of a memory array and a bulk silicon layer. The thermoelectric die is configured to one or both of reduce heat from the memory die when a current is applied to terminals of the thermoelectric die and generate a voltage at the terminals of the thermoelectric die when heat from the memory die is applied to the thermoelectric die. |
