Although 3D IC technology can provide very high integration density, they suffer from having hotspots that may reach 1000’s of degrees. To manage this heat, it is necessary to study the dynamics of cooling and thermal behavior of the ICs. In this study, we report on the dynamics of microchannel liquid cooling using water, R22, and liquid nitrogen. The study shows that using diamond cooling blocks ensures normal operating temperature of 60 ˚C or less, using any of the above coolants. Using SiO2…

Numerical Analysis of Liquid Cooling of 3D-ICs Using Embedded Channels
TLDR
Numerical analysis is used to investigate the cooling of a 20 W hotspot using embedded channels employing three coolants: water, Freon, and liquid nitrogen and shows that, although LN provides the lowest operating temperature, it causes the highest stress at 100 mm/s inlet velocity.
Thermal Stress Analysis of Liquid-Cooled 3D-ICs
TLDR
This study investigates thermal stress resulting from a 3D-IC hot spot with 20 W power dissipation and shows that metal layers on the chip suffer from high thermal stress due to rising of the chip temperature to values higher than the room temperature.
