Abstract

In this study, thermal conductivity measurements of carbon nanotube (CNT) copper nanocomposite fabricated with a novel electrochemical co-deposition method were carried out. The measured thermal conductivity of a Cu-CNT nanocomposite is about 180% greater than that of pure copper. The resultant thermal conductivity of Cu-CNT composite is found to be proportional to the CNT addition.
