Carriers in aluminium nitride (AIN)

We can offer deliveries of the substrates of aluminum nitride (AlN) with the 99% (N – 33,87) content  of AlN. Currently the products with the following standard dimensions are available:

Ser. No. External dimensions mm.
1 101.6*101.6*0.635
2 101.6*101.6*0.38

We can supply nitride carriers in other sizes on request.
Laser cutting of carriers, slots and laser drilling of openings is also possible. Prices are dependent upon the quantity ordered. In order to obtain specific prices please contact us by e-mail at info@ceramintertrade.de
