Abstract

A thermal interface material (40) includes a polymer matrix and a number of carbon nanocapsules incorporated in the polymer matrix. The thermal interface material is sandwiched between a heat source (30) having a high density and a heat sink (50). The thermal interface material can provide a maximum surface contact area and can increase thermal conductivity between the heat source and the heat sink.
