Abstract
A thin heat pipe structure includes a pipe body and at least one wick structure. The pipe body has a vaporizing end internally defining a first chamber, and a condensing end internally defining a second chamber communicating with the first chamber. A space in the first chamber is smaller than that in the second chamber. The wick structure is provided in the first and the second chamber, such that at least one channel is defined in the pipe body by the wick structure and the first and second chambers. With the above arrangements, the pressure resistance in the pipe body at the condensing end is reduced to thereby enable upgraded vapor-liquid circulation efficiency of the working fluid in the pipe body and accordingly upgraded heat dissipation effect of the thin heat pipe structure. A method of forming the thin heat pipe structure is also disclosed.
