Cooling assemblies including a porous three dimensional surface such as a heat sink are disclosed. In one embodiment, a cooling assembly includes a heat transfer substrate having a surface, a thermally conductive fin extending from the surface, a metal mesh bonded to a surface of the thermally conductive fin, and sintered metal particles bonded to the metal mesh and the surface of the thermally conductive fin. The metal mesh defines a macro-level porosity, and the sintered metal particles define a micro-level porosity. In another embodiment, a cooling assembly includes a heat transfer substrate having a surface, a thermally conductive fin extending from the surface of the heat transfer substrate, and sintered metal particles bonded to the surface of the thermally conductive fin. An average diameter of the sintered metal particles increases from a base of the thermally conductive fin to a top of the thermally conductive fin.
