In accordance with the present invention, a method is described which facilitates placement of a thermal interface on a thermal lid. The thermal lid, which facilitates cooling, is placed on the silicon layer after the silicon layer has been bonded to the substrate layer. The thermal interface can be organic. In an embodiment the thermal interface is metallic. In another embodiment the thermal interface is an alloy. Placing the thermal interface on the lid eliminates a step from the manufacturing process of the package. In another embodiment an inorganic thermal interface is placed on the silicon layer prior to bonding with the substrate layer. The method also teaches using a thermal interface with a melting point above a specified temperature. In a preferred embodiment a melting point of greater than 62° C. is described.
