Aluminum Nitride (AIN)
Aluminium nitride is a non-oxide ceramic supplied as powder or dense components such as substrates.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Aluminum Nitride (AlN) is synthesized from the abundant elements aluminum and nitrogen. It does not occur naturally.
AlN is stable in inert atmospheres at temperatures over 2000°C. It exhibits high thermal conductivity, uniquely, a strong dielectric. This unusual combination of properties makes AlN a critical advanced material for many future applications in optics, lighting, electronics and renewable energy.
Purity, oxygen content and densification influence thermal conductivity. The finished geometry and surface finish affect assembly interfaces.
Metallisation and joining are separate process requirements. Moisture exposure and thermal cycling should be considered for the chosen construction.
What turns activity into demand
Evaluate ceramic conductivity together with attachment and insulation. Separate AlN substrates from powder and complete electronic packages.
The commercial boundary
Separate AlN substrates from powder and complete electronic packages.
