Abstract

A thermal interface material includes a macromolecular material having two opposite Surfaces, and a plurality of carbon nanotubes each having two opposite ends embedded in the macromolecular material. The two opposite ends of the carbon nanotubes extend out of the two opposite surfaces of the macromolecular material respectively. A method for manufacturing the thermal interface material is also provided.
