A heat sink designed as a heat pipe has an interior space in a body of the heat sink that is closed toward the outside. The interior space has at least one vapor channel and at least one fluid space connected with the vapor space and having a porous or capillary structure. The heat pipe is made using the DCB process to connect each end of posts within the interior space directly with one of the two opposing walls forming the interior space.

I claim: 1. A process for manufacturing a heat pipe, the heat pipe comprising: a heat pipe body with at least one interior space in the heat pipe body, the interior space being closed toward the outside by walls, at least one vapor channel and at least one fluid channel connected to the at least one vapor channel and having a porous or capillary structure in the interior space, the porous or capillary structure comprising particles of ceramic materials connected with each other and with an inner surface of the interior space of the heat pipe body such that the capillary or porous flow paths are formed between the particles and several spatially separated posts extending through the interior space and between two opposing walls delimiting the interior space, the posts and the walls being made of metal with high heat conductivity, and wherein the process comprising: connecting each post at both ends directly with one of the two opposing walls by means of DCB-bonding and, connecting the particles of ceramic with the interior space of the heat pipe body by DCB-bonding upon heating to a bond temperature between 1065 and 1085° C. and through shaking so that a melting of a copper/copper oxide eutectic causes a formation of copper stays connecting the particles of ceramic material with each other and with a surface of the interior space of the heat pipe body to produce the capillary structure. 2. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the porous or capillary structure is produced by insertion of a mixture or mass of particles made of the heat-resistant material and pulverized copper oxide or oxidized copper particles and by subsequent DCB bonding. 3. A process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the mass or mixture additionally contains copper particles. 4. A process as claimed in claim 2, wherein, after bonding and cooling, the excess portion of the mass or mixture is removed. 5. A process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the mass or mixture forming the capillary structure is inserted in the interior through at least one opening and is distributed there before bonding by shaking, vibration or turning. 6. A process claimed in claim 1, wherein the capillary or porous structure or layer is produced before sealing the interior of the heat sink. 7. A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein during the manufacture of the porous or capillary structure at least one part of the interior of the heat sink forming a vapor area is filled or kept free by means of a support medium before bonding of the particles forming the porous or capillary structure. 8. A process as claimed in claim 7, wherein the support medium is removed after bonding or after manufacturing the porous or capillary structure. 9. A process as claimed in claim 7, wherein the support medium remains in the heat sink. 10. A process as claimed in claim 7, wherein the support medium is a particle-like medium. 11. A process as claimed in claim 7, wherein the support medium is formed from a wall. 12. A process for manufacturing a heat pipe, the heat pipe comprising: a heat pipe body with at least one interior space in the heat pipe body, the interior space being closed toward the outside by walls, at least one vapor channel and at least one fluid channel connected to the at least one vapor channel and having a porous or capillary structure in the interior space, the porous or capillary structure comprising particles of ceramic materials connected with each other and with an inner surface of the interior space of the heat pipe body such that the capillary or porous flow paths are formed between the particles and several spatially separated posts extending through the interior space and between two opposing walls delimiting the interior space, the posts and the walls being made of metal with high heat conductivity, and wherein the process comprising: connecting each post at both ends directly with one of the two opposing walls by means of DCB-bonding and, connecting the particles of ceramic with the interior space of the heat pipe body by DCB-bonding upon heating to a bond temperature between 1065 and 1085° C.
