Abstract: The diagonal component of the electron heat conductivity tensor of epitaxial graphene formed in a semiconductor has been investigated within a simple analytical model. It is shown that the heat conductivity sharply changes at a chemical potential close to the substrate band gap edge. Low-temperature expressions for the heat conductivity are derived.
