In order to fabricate high-performance thermal management materials with ultra-high thermal conductivities and low CTEs, we have recently initiated a series of investigations, where metal-matrix composites (MMCs) containing high thermal conductive fillers were uniquely fabricated. In our study, to avoid the damage of filler particle surfaces, spark plasma sintering (SPS) processing was used as a processing technique. In the present review, thermal properties of diamond particle dispersed MMCs fabricated using SPS process in our recent works are introduced in comparison with those produced using various fabrication techniques by other researchers.
