Abstract
3-D heterogeneous integration (3DHGI) of different materials has great potential for electronic applications such as flexible and stretchable circuits, and multilayer solar cells. Here, we demonstrate heterogeneous integration of ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) with silicon using transfer-printing. Using this approach we demonstrate dramatically improved heat extraction from the silicon layer. This 3D heterogeneously integrated system can offer superior thermal management for high power electronics such as GaN HEMT-based power amplifiers.
