Any documents or any weblink you have on this topics, please post it here.

I have an article which talks about this a bit, but you should really read various blog posts by Eric Lippert. "The truth about value types" is probably the most important one, along with "The stack is an implementation detail" (part one; part two).
Fundamentally it’s more important to understand garbage collection in terms of reachability etc, rather than the implementation details of what goes where in memory. That can be helpful in terms of performance, but you need to keep reminding yourself that it’s an implementation detail.
