Abstract
A method for producing at least one through-silicon via inside a substrate may include forming a cavity in the substrate from a first side of the substrate until an electrically conductive portion is emerged onto. The method may also include forming an electrically conductive layer at a bottom and on walls of the cavity, and at least partly on a first side outside the cavity. The process may further include at least partially filling the cavity with at least one phase-change material. Another aspect is directed to a three-dimensional integrated structure.
