1. A continuous organic-inorganic highly structured resin comprising:

  • a host highly structured resin network comprising a plurality of mesogenic groups; and

    inorganic high thermal conductivity fillers being evenly dispersed in said host highly structured resin network, wherein said inorganic high thermal conductivity fillers comprise surface functional groups that covalently bond said high thermal conductivity fillers directly to said host highly structured resin network;

    wherein said high thermal conductivity fillers have a length of between 1-1000 nm and an aspect ratio of 10-50;

    wherein said plurality of mesogenic groups and said thermal conductivity fillers are in substantial alignment with one another in a uniform direction; and

    wherein the continuous organic-inorganic highly structured resin comprises minimal to no interfacial gaps or microvoids formed therein and is effective to reduce an amount of phonon scattering and to increase an amount of phonon transport in the resin.
