Abstract:
Three dimensional integrated circuits with microfluidic interconnects and methods of constructing same are provided. According to some embodiments, and microfluidic integrated circuit system can comprise a plurality of semiconductor die wafers each having a top and bottom exterior surface. The semiconductor die wafers can form a stack of die wafers. The die wafers can comprise one or more channels formed through the die wafers. The channels can extend generally between top and bottom exterior surfaces of the semiconductor die wafers. A plurality of micro-pipes can be disposed between adjacent semiconductor die wafers in the stack. The micro-pipes can enable the channels to be in fluid communication with each other. A barrier layer can be disposed within at least one of the channels and the micro-pipes. The barrier layer can be adapted to prevent a coolant flowing through the at least one of the channels and the micro-pipes from leeching into the channels and micro-pipes.
Interconnects are formed on attachment points of a wafer by performing several steps. A plurality of cavities having a predetermined shape is formed in a semiconductor substrate. These cavities are then filled with an interconnect material to form the interconnects. The interconnects are subsequently attached to the attachment points of the wafer.

Abstract:
A transfer process for bonding a solderable device to a solderable firsl substrate having a first oxidized surface comprises placing the solderable device proximate to the first substrate in a reducing chamber, where the first surface cannot be visually observed. We place a second substrate having a second oxidized surface in the chamber in a way to visually observe the second surface. Selecting the first substrate and the second substrate so that the reduction of the second surface correlates with the reduction of the first surface provides an indication of the degree of reduction of the first surface. Introducing a reducing agent into the chamber under reducing conditions reduces the surfaces which we track by irradiating and observing the second surface; evaluate any change in the second surface during irradiation and correlate the change with first surface reduction. When sufficiently reduced, we solder the first substrate to the device.
