Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an AlN substrate wherein reaction with water is hard to occur and crack or peeling due to temperature change is hard to occur, by forming a layer wherein a phase comprising Al2O3 and AlON is a main component on the surface of the AlN substrate. CONSTITUTION:An AlN substrate is heat-treated in an atmosphere incorporating oxygen. An Al2O3 layer is formed on the surface of the AlN substrate. When the substrate undergoes the heat treatment in an inactive gas atmosphere at a high temperature, the Al2O3 layer on the surface reacts with a ground AlN layer, and AlON is yielded. At this time, the AlN substrate is hard to be deteriorated with water in air and has good affinity with a circuit forming paste at the surface of the substrate. Since the layer wherein a phase comprising Al2O3 and AlON is the main component is provided on the surface of the AlN substrate, the AlN substrate wherein crack and peeling due to the temperature change is hard to occur can be obtained.
