Abstract
A method includes forming a first bond layer on a first wafer, and forming a first thermal conductive channel extending into the first bond layer. The first thermal conductive channel has a first thermal conductivity value higher than a second thermal conductivity value of the first bond layer. The method further includes forming a second bond layer on a second wafer, and forming a second thermal conductive channel extending into the second bond layer. The second thermal conductive channel has a third thermal conductivity value higher than a fourth thermal conductivity value of the second bond layer. The first wafer is bonded to the second wafer, and the first thermal conductive channel at least physically contacts the second thermal conductive channel. An interconnect structure is formed over the first wafer. The interconnect structure is electrically connected to integrated circuit devices in the first wafer.
