摘要:
An integrated circuit to be cooled may be abutted in face-to-face abutment with a cooling integrated circuit. The cooling integrated circuit may include electroosmotic pumps to pump cooling fluid through the cooling integrated circuits via microchannels to thereby cool the heat generating integrated circuit. The electroosmotic pumps may be fluidically coupled to external radiators which extend upwardly away from a package including the integrated circuits. In particular, the external radiators may be mounted on tubes which extend the radiators away from the package.

A stack of heat generating integrated circuit chips may be provided with intervening cooling integrated circuit chips. The cooling integrated circuit chips may include microchannels for the flow of the cooling fluid. The cooling fluid may be pumped using the integrated electroosmotic pumps. Removal of cooling fluid gases may be accomplished using integrated re-combiners in some embodiments.
摘要:
Trenches may be formed in the upper surfaces of a pair of wafers. Each trench may be coated with a catalyst that is capable of removing oxygen or hydrogen from a fluid used for cooling in a system making use of the electroosmotic effect for pumping. Channels may be formed to communicate fluid to and from the trench coated with the catalyst. The substrates may be combined in face-to-face abutment, for example using copper-to-copper bonding to form a re-combiner.

摘要:
A device where the electrodes of an electroosmotic pump are located directly in the flow-producing region of the electroosmotic pump is described as well as methods of forming such a device. Placing the electrodes of an electroosmotic pump directly in the flow-producing region of the electroosmotic pump may increase the flow rate of a cooling fluid that is pumped through the pump. The cooling fluid may then remove a greater amount of heat from the substrate over which it is flowed. The substrate may be the non-device side of a die or a thermal management chip that is placed in direct contact with the non-device side of a die. In these instances the electroosmotic pump may be part of a microelectronic package containing the die or the thermal management chip.
