HEAT PIPE FOR VERTICALLY STACKED FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTORS

A heat pipe is provided as an electrically inactive structure to dissipate heat that is generated by vertically stacked field effect transistors (FETs). The heat pipe is present in an electrically inactive device area which is located adjacent to an electrically active device area that includes the...

Zusammenfassung:A heat pipe is provided as an electrically inactive structure to dissipate heat that is generated by vertically stacked field effect transistors (FETs). The heat pipe is present in an electrically inactive device area which is located adjacent to an electrically active device area that includes the vertically stacked FETs. The heat pipe includes at least one vertical interconnect structure that continuously extends between each tier of the vertically stacked FETs
