    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to a thin film capacitor (TFC) for power delivery that is in situ in a package substrate and techniques of fabricating the TFC. In one example, the TFC includes a first electrode, a dielectric layer over the first electrode, and a second electrode over the dielectric layer. Each of the dielectric layer and the second electrode comprises an opening. Furthermore, the two openings are positioned over one another such that the openings expose a surface of the first electrode. In this example, a first vertical interconnect access (via) is positioned on the exposed surface of the first electrode and a second via is positioned on an exposed surface of the second electrode. The TFC can be positioned in or on a layer of the package substrate close to a component (e.g., a die, a die stack, etc.) on the package substrate that may require a decoupling capacitance.

    Abstract: A composite integrated circuit (IC) structure includes at least a first IC die in a stack with a second IC die. Each die has a device layer and metallization layers interconnected to transistors of the device layer and terminating at features. First features of the first IC die are primarily of a first composition with a first microstructure. Second features of the second IC die are primarily of a second composition or a second microstructure. A first one of the second features is in direct contact with one of the first features. The second composition has a thermal conductivity at least an order of magnitude lower than that of the first composition and first microstructure. The first composition may have a thermal conductivity at least 40 times that of the second composition or second microstructure.
