A thermal transport structure having a thermal transport layer and a resin layer is provided. The thermal transport layer may include a first surface and a second surface, and having a thermally conductive material disposed in the thermal transport layer, where the thermally conductive material is oriented in a predetermined direction in order to facilitate heat conduction relative to the predetermined direction. Further, the resin layer is secured to the thermal transport layer second surface, where the resin layer is relatively less thermally conductive than the thermal transport layer.
