author keywords: AC coupled; inductive coupling; spiral inductor; three-dimensional integrated circuits (3-D ICs); through vias; vertical interconnect
TL;DR: This paper presents the potential application of AC coupled interconnect (ACCI) for dense three-dimensional (3-D) integrated circuits (ICs) and concludes that inductive ACCI can provide small pitch vertical interconnects, as well as an excellent thermal solution for dense 3-D ICs.
