Abstract

See full text

A heat-conducting medium for placement between a heat source and heat sink to facilitate transfer of heat from the source to the sink is provided. The heat-conducting medium can include a disk having relatively high thermal conductivity and heat spreading characteristics. The heat-conducting medium also includes a first recessed surface and an opposing second recessed surface. Extending from within each recessed surface is an array of heat conducting bristles to provide a plurality of contact points to the heat source and heat sink to aid in the transfer of heat. The recessed surfaces may be defined by a rim positioned circumferentially about the disk. The presence of the rim about each recessed surface acts to minimize the amount of pressure that may be exerted by the heat sink and the heat source against the bristles. A method for manufacturing the heat-conducting medium is also provided.
