The thermal boundary resistance between an individual carbon nanotube and a Au surface was measured using a microfabricated hot-film sensor. We used both closed and open-ended multi-walled carbon nanotubes and obtained thermal boundary resistance values of 0.947–1.22 × 107 K W − 1 and 1.43–1.76 × 107 K W − 1, respectively. Considering all uncertainties, including the contact area, the thermal boundary conductances per unit area were calculated to be 8.6 × 107–2.2 × 108 W m − 2 K − 1 for c-axis orientation and 4.2 × 108–1.2 × 109 W m − 2 K − 1 for the a-axis. The trend in these values agrees with the predicted conductance dependence on the interface orientation of anisotropic carbon-based materials. However, the measured thermal boundary conductances are found to be much larger than the reported results.
