    Abstract: IC devices including BHRs and TSVs for backside heat dissipation are disclosed. An example IC device includes semiconductor structures. The IC device also includes an electrically conductive layer coupled to the semiconductor structures. The IC device further includes one or more BHRs coupled to the electrically conductive layer. Each BHR is connected to a heat dissipation plate by a TSV buried in a support structure. The heat dissipation plate is at the backside of the support structure. The BHRs, TSVs, and heat dissipation plate can conduct heat generated by the semiconductor structures to the backside of the support structure. The BHRs may also be used as power rails for delivering power to the semiconductor structures. A TSV can be enlarged to have a larger cross-sectional area than the BHR for enhancing the heat dissipation. Also, the heat dissipation plate may exceed a cell boundary for sinking heat more efficiently.
