Abstract
Variable thermal resistors, systems, and methods suitable for modulating heat transport between a heat source and a heat sink based on a degree of compression of a reversibly-compressible, open-pore graphene foam within the variable thermal resistors. The variable thermal resistor is configured to controllably vary heat transport therethrough by controlling the degree of compression of the graphene foam.
