Aluminum nitride Fine Ceramics

Most desirable heat dissipation substrates for electronics use

Aluminum nitride fine ceramics

Outline

Heat dissipation Fine Ceramics came to be an essential material for electronics devices that meet the needs of high output, large-scale integration, thin and light body, higher frequency and environment friendliness.

We offer the world's highest heat-conductive aluminum nitride (AlN) substrates that we manufacture with our core technology: grain boundary control of ceramic microstructure.

Advantages

  • High heat conductivity
  • High insulation and high withstanding voltage
  • Low thermal expansion coefficient similar to those of Si, GaN and GaAs semiconductors
  • Substitutes high heat-conductive but toxic berylia (BeO) substrates.
