摘要:
In a first step of a method for producing a transparent AlN sintered body, first, a formed body is prepared by forming a mixture obtained by mixing a sintering aid with an AlN raw-material powder containing a plate-like AlN powder whose plate surface is a c-plane and which has an aspect ratio of 3 or more. At this time, the mixture is formed such that the plate surface of the plate-like AlN powder is disposed along a surface of the formed body. In a second step, an oriented AlN sintered body is obtained by subjecting the formed body to hot-press sintering in a non-oxidizing atmosphere while applying a pressure to the surface of the formed body. In a third step, a transparent AlN sintered body is obtained by sintering the oriented AlN sintered body at normal pressure in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to remove a component derived from the sintering aid.

There are provided a porous plate-shaped filler to form a heat insulation film in which a heat insulation effect improves, a heat insulation film including a porous plate-shaped filler, and a method for producing the porous plate-shaped filler. A porous plate-shaped filler 1 is a plate shape having an aspect ratio of 3 or more, and has a minimum length of 0.1 to 50 µm and a porosity of 20 to 90%. Furthermore, the porous plate-shaped filler 1 includes plate-shaped pores 2 having an aspect ratio of 1.5 or more. Consequently, in the porous plate-shaped filler 1, a thermal conductivity is low. The heat insulation film includes the porous plate-shaped filler 1, whereby a heat insulation effect of the heat insulation film can improve.

A porous ceramic particle (16) includes a porous portion (61) and a dense layer (62). The porous portion (61) has a plate-like shape and a pair of main surfaces (611) in parallel with each other. The dense layer (62) has porosity lower than that of the porous portion (61) and covers at least one main surface (611) among the pair of main surfaces (611) of the porous portion (61). A portion of a surface of the porous portion (61), which is other than the pair of main surfaces (611), is exposed from the dense layer (62). It is thereby possible to provide a porous ceramic particle (16) of low thermal conductivity and low heat capacity.

Provided are a ceramic material having heat-transfer performance that can change with temperatures, and a thermal switch including the same. A ceramic material has a characteristic length L a of a micro-structure thereof that satisfies 0.1L AMFP ≤L a ≤100L AMFP , and has thermal conductivity that monotonously increases from room temperature to 100°C, where L AMFP denotes apparent mean free path of phonons at room temperature, and is defined as L AMFP =(3× thermal conductivity)/(heat capacity×speed of sound). The characteristic length L a of the micro-structure is an interval between particles of different type of material when the ceramic material includes a composite material in which the different type of material is dispersed in a base material, is an interval between one pore and another pore when the ceramic material includes a porous body, and is the crystalline particle size (interval between one grain boundary and another grain boundary) when the ceramic material includes a polycrystalline body.

(Object) In an optical modulator and a bonded body for the optical modulator produced by bonding an optical waveguide material composed of lithium niobate or the like onto a supporting substrate, the object is to suppress the cracks of the optical waveguide material due to annealing and to improve the optical response characteristics of the optical modulator with respect to frequency. (Solution) A bonded body 6 for an optical modulator includes a supporting substrate 4, an optical waveguide material 7 provided on the supporting substrate 4 and composed of lithium niobate, lithium tantalate and lithium niobate-lithium tantalate, and an optical waveguide 8 in the optical waveguide material 7. The supporting substrate 4 is composed of a material selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide and a magnesium-silicon composite oxide.

In a first step of a method for producing an oriented AlN sintered body, a formed body is prepared by forming a mixture obtained by mixing a sintering aid with an AlN raw-material powder containing a plate-like AlN powder whose plate surface is a c-plane and which has an aspect ratio of 3 or more and an average thickness of 0.05 to 1.8 µm, in which the mixture is formed such that the plate surface of the plate-like AlN powder is disposed along a surface of the formed body. In a second step, an oriented AlN sintered body is obtained by subjecting the formed body to hot-press sintering in a non-oxidizing atmosphere while applying a pressure to the surface of the formed body.

There are provided a heat-insulation film in which a heat insulation effect improves, and a heat-insulation-film structure. In a heat-insulation film 3, porous plate fillers 1 are dispersed in a matrix 3m to bond the porous plate fillers 1. The porous plate filler 1 includes plates having an aspect ratio of 3 or more, a minimum length of 0.1 to 50 µm and a porosity of 20 to 90%. In the heat-insulation film 3, a volume ratio between the porous plate fillers and the matrix is from 50:50 to 95:5. In the heat-insulation film 3 in which the porous plate fillers 1 are used, a length of a heat transfer path increases and a thermal conductivity can be decreased, as compared with a case where spherical or cubic fillers are used.
