AlN and alumina substrates, DBC/AMB carriers
AlN dominates as the substrate ceramic for IGBT, MOSFET and SiC-power modules — thermal conductivity 170–220 W/m·K matched to a CTE close to silicon, eliminating the thermal-cycling failures that plagued alumina substrates. Anderman supplies AlN substrates as bare ceramic, metallised, DBC or AMB through partner manufacturing. For lower-power modules, dense alumina (96–99.5%) remains the cost-effective baseline.
