Abstract

A method for manufacturing a heat-dissipating structure with high heat-dissipating efficiency, includes the following steps: providing a heat-dissipating casing having a hollow heat-dissipating body that has at least two ends; closing one end of the hollow heat-dissipating body; pouring work liquid from other end of the hollow heat-dissipating body into an inner portion of the hollow heat-dissipating body; cooling the work liquid from the liquid state to the solid state by an external cooling medium; extracting air from the hollow heat-dissipating body; and then closing the other end of the hollow heat-dissipating body to form an evacuated hollow heat-dissipating body.
