Abstract
A structure includes an electrical device, and an active contact landed on a portion of the electrical device. The active contact includes a first body of a first material. A thermal dissipation pillar is adjacent the active contact and unlanded on but over the portion of the electrical device. The thermal dissipation pillar includes a second body of a second material having a higher thermal conductivity than the first material. The thermal dissipation pillar may be in thermal communication with a wire in a dielectric layer over the active contact and the thermal dissipation pillar. The electrical device can be any integrated circuit device that generates heat.
