Heatsink device and method

摘要

A method and device for thermal conduction is provided. Methods of forming heatsinks are provided that include advantages such as the ability to produce intricate detailed features that other manufacturing methods are not capable of. Other advantages provided include a reduction in process time and cost due to the absence of a need to machine components after initial fabrication. Embodiments of heatsinks that are formed using methods provided include features such as sub-fins and other detailed features that cannot be formed using other manufacturing processes. Further embodiments of heatsinks that are formed using methods provided include materials that cannot be formed using other manufacturing processes.
