Aluminium nitride (Al N) is a solid nitride of aluminium. It has a high thermal conductivity of up to 321 W/(m·K)^[5] and is an electrical insulator. Its wurtzite phase (w-AlN) has a band gap of ~6 eV at room temperature and has a potential application in optoelectronics operating at deep ultraviolet frequencies.
