| Abstract | Liquid crystals can be used in thin film heat switches for micro-electronics thermal management. We present the first electrically controllable liquid crystal thin film heat switch that can thermally characterize itself with a metal line which simultaneously heats the thin films, measures their thermal characteristics, and acts as an electrode. The thermal conductivities of three liquid crystal thin films (MBBA, 5CB, and 8CB) are measured as a function of temperature and alignment voltage using the 3ω technique. The results allow us to infer critical phase |
