Aluminum nitride characteristics
Overview of Aluminum Nitride Aluminum nitride (AlN) is hexagonal, and pure AlN is blue-white, usually gray or off-white. Aluminum nitride ceramics have a series of excellent characteristics such as excellent thermal conductivity, reliable electrical insulation, low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, non-toxic, and thermal expansion coefficient matching with silicon. It is a new ceramic material with excellent comprehensive performance. Aluminum nitride characteristics Aluminum nitride has the characteristics of not being corroded by molten aluminum, other molten metals and gallium arsenide, and especially has excellent corrosion resistance to molten aluminum. (1) Aluminum nitride has high thermal conductivity (about 320W/m·K), which is close to BeO and SiC, and is more than 5 times that of Al2O3; (2) The thermal expansion coefficient of aluminum nitride (4.5×10-6°C) matches that of Si (3.5-4×10-6°C) and GaAs (6×10-6°C); (3) Various electrical properties (dielectric constant,
