We measure a forty-fold increase in the cross-plane thermal conductivity between 7 nm and 585 nm flakes at 295 K. We attribute the large increase in thermal conductivity with increasing thickness to contributions from phonons with long mean free paths (MFPs), spanning many hundreds of nanometers in the thickest flakes.
