Abstract

A vapor chamber and a heat dissipating device are provided. The vapor chamber includes a first cover plate defining a first side and a second cover plate defining a second side. Support portions are disposed on the first side of the first cover plate at intervals. The second side of the second cover plate is opposite to the first side of the first cover plate. An edge of the second side is connected with an edge of the first side. The second side of the second cover plate defines capillary grooves. Nanoparticles are accumulated on a groove wall of each of the capillary grooves. The nanoparticles are hydrophilic. Gaps between the nanoparticles are communicated. One end of each of the support portions abuts against the second side. Gaps between the support portions are communicated to form a heat dissipating cavity communicated with the capillary grooves.

Claims (15)

1. A vapor chamber, comprising:

a first cover plate, and

a second cover plate;

wherein the first cover plate defines a first side; support portions are disposed on the first side of the first cover plate at intervals; gaps between the support portions are communicated with each other to form a heat dissipating cavity; the gaps are configured to receive vaporized liquid, and the support portions are configured to liquefy the vaporized liquid into liquid;

wherein the second cover plate defines a second side; the second side of the second cover plate is opposite to the first side of the first cover plate; an edge of the second side of the second cover plate is connected with and sealed with an edge of the first side of the first cover plate; the second side of the second cover plate defines capillary grooves; nanoparticles are accumulated on a groove wall of each of the capillary grooves; the nanoparticles are hydrophilic; gaps between the nanoparticles of each of the capillary grooves are communicated; the gaps between the nanoparticles of each of the capillary grooves are configured to receive the liquid formed from and flowing from the support portions of the first cover plate; one end, close to the second cover plate, of each of the support portions abuts against the second side of the second cover plate; each of the capillary grooves is communicated with the heat dissipating cavity.

2. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticles are sequentially and uniformly accumulated on the groove wall of each of the capillary grooves.

3. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticles in each of the capillary grooves form stacked structures and/or granular structures; the stacked structures and/or the granular structures are scattered in each of the capillary grooves; the stacked structures and/or the granular structures do not contact with each other.

4. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticles are stacked in a dot shape or in a mesh shape on the groove wall of each of the capillary grooves.

5. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein an accumulation thickness of the nanoparticles in each of the capillary grooves is in a range of 0.1-20 μm.

6. The vapor chamber according to claim 5 , wherein a diameter of each of the nanoparticles is in a range of 2-5000 nm.

7. The vapor chamber according to claim 6 , wherein the nanoparticles are made of one or more of a titanium dioxide, silicon dioxide, calcium carbonate, zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, cerium carbonate, cerium oxide, cerium fluoride, copper oxide, and cuprous oxide.

8. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein the capillary grooves are disposed side by side; the groove wall of each of the capillary grooves defines communicating openings; the communicating openings on the groove wall of each of the capillary grooves are staggered with the communicating openings on the groove wall of an adjacent capillary groove.

9. The vapor chamber according to claim 1 , wherein a depth of each of the capillary grooves in a direction perpendicular to the second cover plate is not less than a width of each of the capillary grooves in a direction parallel to the second cover plate.

10. The vapor chamber according to claim 9 , wherein a width of each of the capillary grooves is in a range of 20-150 μm; the depth of each of the capillary grooves is in a range of 20-200 μm.

11. A heat dissipating device, comprising the vapor chamber according to claim 1 .
