At 1304, one or more other channels are formed in one or more other stackable layers for the cold plate device, the one or more other channels (e.g., one or more other stackable layers 9021-N) comprising a different length than the channel. The one or more other stackable layers can comprise metal such as copper, aluminum or another type of alloy. Additionally or alternatively, the one or more other stackable layers can comprise a ceramic material (e.g., aluminum nitride, etc.). In one example, the one or more other channels can be formed in the one or more other stackable layers via an etching process (e.g., a chemical etching process). In another example, the one or more other channels can be formed in the one or more other stackable layers layer via a machining fabrication process. In yet another example, the one or more other channels can be formed in the one or more other stackable layers via a punching fabrication process (e.g., a punching metal forming process). In an aspect, the one or more other channels can be one or more through-hole regions, one or more patterned through-hole regions and/or one or more auxiliary channels.
