Flexible heat sink for thermoelectric device and flexible thermoelectric device containing it

Abstract

Provided is a flexible heat sink for a flexible thermoelectric device including a first metal thin film; a phase change layer including a highly conductive foam formed on the first metal thin film and a phase change material filling pores of the highly conductive foam; and a second metal thin film formed on the phase change layer. The flexible heat sink for a flexible thermoelectric device has excellent flexibility, a high heat absorption rate, and a small size for heat sinking performance.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
