Abstract
A planar GaAs structure has been used to measure the properties of good heatsinks of c.w. devices. It is found, first, that the thermal resistance is primarily given by the thermal conductivity k of GaAs if the temperature dependence of k is included, and, secondly, that the contribution of the semiconductor-metal interface is negligible.
