So when Winkler applied voltage to the gate, current flowed from top to bottom through the area surrounding the hole. In the through-silicon via field effect transistor (TSVFET), the drain and source were at the top and bottom of the hole, which was 20 micrometers wide and 200 micrometers deep. Illustration: Felix Winkler/University of Dresden/IEEE Electron Device Letters Depending on the pattern of chemicals with which the different parts have been impregnated, voltage at the gate either allows current to flow through the channel between the source and drain, or it cuts off the flow of current. A FET has four main components: the source, the drain, the channel between them, and the gate, which sits above the channel but is separated from it by a thin layer of insulation. To understand how, you need to know the basic parts of a FET. Instead, Winkler and his colleagues turned the hole into a field-effect transistor (FET). Ordinarily when making a TSV, manufacturers etch narrow holes through the interposer and fill them with copper.
Bartha started with a thick sliver of silicon, called an interposer. student at Technische Universität Dresden, in Germany, and his colleagues in the laboratory of Johann W. The implications aren’t just more intelligent control of the flow of information-through-silicon transistors could also keep sensitive chip designs safe from prying (electron-microscope enhanced) eyes.įelix Winkler, a Ph.D. Their answer is a “through-silicon transistor,” and if they’re right, it should let designers actively control which signals are allowed to go from one chip to another. But, at the moment, they don’t add any intelligence.Įngineers in Germany want to change that by making TSVs smart. Done right, they should save time, energy, and space. That way signals don’t have to travel very far between the two chips. They're basically micrometer-scale vertical wires embedded in a sliver of silicon that link one chip, such as a processor, to another, such as a memory chip, stacked atop the first.
