Abstract: This invention provides opportunity for diamond and bi-wafer microstructures to be implemented in advanced ICs and advanced IC packages to form a new breed of ICs and SiPs that go beyond the limitations of silicon at the forefront of IC advancement due primarily to diamond's extreme heat dissipating ability. Establishing the diamond and bi-wafer microstructure capabilities and implementing them in advanced ICs and advanced IC packages gives IC and package architects and designers “an extra degree of design freedom” in achieving extreme IC performance, particularly when thermal management presents a challenge. Diamond's extreme heat spreading ability can be used to dissipate hotspots in processors and other high-power chips such as GaN HEMT, resulting in performance and reliability enhancement for IC and package applications covering HPC, AI, photonics, 5G RF/mmWave, power and IoT, and at the system level propelling the migration from traditional computing to near-memory computing and in-memory computing.
