The spray chamber comprises: a wall assembly for sealable mounting on an exposed cooling surface of the computer processor defining an enclosure having a top opening and a bottom opening which opens on the top surface of the computer processor; and a lid for covering the top opening of the wall assembly in a sealable manner, the lid having a nozzle which sprays coolant that impinges on the exposed cooling surface of the computer processor.

A multi-chip unit suitable for chip-level packaging may include multiple IC chips that are interconnected through a metal redistribution structure, and that are directly bonded to an integrated heat spreader. Bonding of the integrated heat spreader to the multiple IC chips may be direct so that no thermal interface material (TIM) is needed, resulting in a reduced bond line thickness (BLT) and lower thermal resistance. The integrated heat spreader may further serve as a structural member of the multi-chip unit, allowing a second side of the redistribution structure to be further interconnected to a host by solder interconnects. The redistribution structure may be fabricated on a sacrificial interposer that may facilitate planarizing IC chips of differing thickness prior to bonding the heat spreader. The sacrificial interposer may be removed to expose the RDL for further interconnection to a substrate without the use of through-substrate vias.

An integrated circuit package that includes a liquid phase thermal interface material (TIM) is described. The package may include any number of die. The liquid phase TIM can be sealed in a chamber between a die and an integrated heat spreader and bounded on the sides by a perimeter layer. The liquid phase TIM can be fixed in place or circulated, depending on application. A thermal conductivity of the liquid phase TIM can be at least 15 Watts/meter-Kelvin, according to some embodiments. A liquid phase TIM eliminates failure mechanisms present in solid phase TIMs, such as cracking due to warpage and uncontained flow out of the module.
