Abstract
An electrical device that includes at least two active wafers having at least one through silicon via, and at least one unitary electrical communication and spacer structure present between a set of adjacently stacked active wafers of the at least two active wafers. The unitary electrical communication and spacer structure including an electrically conductive material core providing electrical communication to the at least one through silicon via structure in the set of adjacently stacked active wafers and a substrate material outer layer. The at least one unitary electrical communication and spacer structure being separate from and engaged to the adjacently stacked active wafers, wherein coolant passages are defined between surfaces of the adjacently stacked active wafers and the at least one unitary electrical communication and spacer structure.
