What is LED ceramic substrates?
Ceramic substrate, a special process board where copper foil is directly bonded to the surface (single side or double side) of alumina (Al2O3) or aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic substrate at high temperatur, is designed to provide good thermal conductivity, high electrical insulation, and dimensional stability. Ceramic substrate always is used in LED packaging.
