    Abstract: Thermal conductivity in a stacked IC device can be improved by constructing one or more active temperature control devices within the stacked IC device. In one embodiment, the control devices are thermal electric (TE) devices, such as Peltier devices. The TE devices can then be selectively controlled to remove or add heat, as necessary, to maintain the stacked IC device within a defined temperature range. The active temperature control elements can be P-N junctions created in the stacked IC device and can serve to move the heat laterally and/or vertically, as desired.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device and methods of making a semiconductor device using graphene are described. A monolithic three dimensional integrated circuit device includes a first layer having first active devices. The monolithic three dimensional integrated circuit device also includes a second layer having second active devices that each include a graphene portion. The second layer can be fabricated on the first layer to form a stack of active devices. A base substrate may support the stack of active devices.

    Abstract: A magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device for a magnetic random access memory (MRAM) includes a first conductive interconnect communicating with at least one control device and a first electrode coupling to the first conductive interconnect through a via opening formed in a dielectric passivation barrier using a first mask. The device has an MTJ stack for storing data, coupled to the first electrode. A portion of the MTJ stack has lateral dimensions based upon a second mask. The portion defined by the second mask is over the contact via. A second electrode is coupled to the MTJ stack and also has a lateral dimension defined by the second mask. The first electrode and a portion of the MTJ stack are defined by a third mask. A second conductive interconnect is coupled to the second electrode and at least one other control device.
