Claim 8:
9. A device comprising:
a substrate having a first surface and an opposite second surface;
an electrical load supported by the first surface of the substrate;
at least one of a photonic transmitter supported by the first surface of the substrate and a photonic receiver supported by the first surface of the substrate;
a microfluidic volume positioned in the second surface of the substrate;
a waveguide positioned to direct photonic signal from the photonic transmitter to the photonic receiver, wherein at least a portion of the waveguide is positioned between the first surface of the substrate and at least a portion of the microfluidic volume;
a first electrode positioned in the microfluidic volume;
a second electrode positioned in the microfluidic volume;
a first through silicon via (TSV) connecting the first electrode to the electrical load;
a second TSV connecting the second electrode to the electrical load; and
an electrochemical fluid positioned in the microfluidic volume to provide electrical power to the electrical load and receive heat from the electrical load and waveguide.
