    摘要： A method of testing a die having a non-testable circuit, where the non-testable circuit is logically incomplete and forms part of a logically complete multiple tier circuit. The method includes reconfiguring a tier-to-tier input point or tier-to-tier output point associated with a primary path of the non-testable circuit to create a logically complete secondary path for the tier-to-tier point such that the non-testable circuit can be tested. Testable dies and methods of preparing such dies are also provided.

    摘要： A photovoltaic cell includes a photovoltaic layer having a first node and a second node. A first conductive layer is electrically coupled to the second node of the photovoltaic layer so the first conductive layer does not block light from the photovoltaic layer. A second conductive layer is adjacent to but electrically insulated from the first conductive layer, so the second conductive layer is positioned where it does not block light from the photovoltaic layer. At least one through silicon via is electrically coupled to the first node of the photovoltaic layer and the second conductive layer, but is electrically insulated from at least a portion of the photovoltaic layer and the first conductive layer.

    摘要： 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.
