Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Sputtering Target

Aluminum Nitride

This solid nitrate of aluminum is an excellent electrical insulator and has a high thermal conductivity considering it is an electrically insulating ceramic. Stable at high temperatures & resistant to most molten salts this material is synthesized by the carbothermal reduction of Aluminum Oxide (Al₂O₃) in a nitrogen or ammonia environment, or by the direct nitridation of the aluminum. Aluminum Nitride is commonly etched with a Chlorine Gas (Cl₂) based reactive etch, and will dissolve in mineral acids slowly through grain boundary attack. SCI uses our hot presses to ensure a dense, technical grade material for use in thin-film deposition.
