Aluminum

Aluminum (Al) is the element with atomic number 13, widely used in various industries due to its excellent properties. It finds applications in pure aluminum form, as well as in compounds such as aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic, and in the semiconductor industry where aluminum-containing materials are used for thin film deposition through sputtering targets.

Pure aluminum is known for its low density, corrosion resistance, and excellent thermal conductivity. Metal aluminum and it's alloys are widely used as lightweight structural metal in a lot of industries.

Aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic is an advanced ceramic material with exceptional thermal conductivity, high electrical resistivity, and excellent mechanical strength. It finds applications in industries such as electronics, aerospace, and automotive. AlN ceramic is used in heat sinks, substrates for electronic devices, and components in high-temperature environments due to its ability to efficiently dissipate heat.

In the semiconductor industry, aluminum is widely used for various applications. Through sputtering targets, thin films of aluminum or it's compound, such as AZO (aluminum zinc oxide), ATO(aluminum tin oxide) are deposited onto substrates for tasks such as metallization, electrical interconnects, and barrier layers. Sputtering targets contening aluminum are crucial in the production of integrated circuits, flat-panel displays, and photovoltaic cells.

Rare earth aluminum alloys combine the lightweight nature of aluminum with the advantageous properties of rare earth elements. These alloys (e.g. Al-Sc) exhibit enhanced mechanical properties, such as increased strength and improved corrosion resistance. They are utilized in aerospace applications, including aircraft structures, engine components, and rocket bodies. Rare earth aluminum alloys are also employed in the automotive industry for lightweight structural parts, improving fuel efficiency and performance.
