Abstract
A thermal conductivity sheet is provided which is superior all in heat radiating characteristics (thermal conductivity) in the direction of sheet thickness, close-contact with respect to parts to be cooled, and electrical insulation. In a thermal conductivity sheet 1 in which a plurality of highly thermally conductive insulators 3 are dispersed in a matrix insulator 2, the highly thermally conductive insulators 3 are oriented obliquely or erectly in the direction of thickness of the thermal conductivity sheet 1 such that at least one end faces of the highly thermally conductive insulators 3 are exposed to a surface of the matrix insulator 2. Preferably, a ratio of the total sectional area of the highly thermally conductive insulators 3 to the total surface area of the thermal conductivity sheet 1 is set to be equal to or larger than 1%.
