A device with thermal control is presented. In some embodiments, the device includes a plurality of die positioned in a stack, each die including a chip, interconnects through a thickness of the chip, metal features of electrically conductive composition connected to the interconnects on a bottom side of the chip, and adhesive or underfill layer on the bottom side of the chip. At least one thermally conducting layer, which can be a pyrolytic graphite layer, a layer formed of carbon nanotubes, or a graphene layer, is coupled between a top side of one of the plurality of die and a bottom side of an adjoining die in the stack. A heat sink can be coupled to the thermally conducting layer. |
