Thermal oxidation resistance, in a temperature range of 600 to 1100° C, of AIN-Al2O3 composite, AIN and θ-A12 O3 films has been studied. The films were prepared by microwave plasma CVD using an AlBr3 -H2 -N2 -Ar gas system at a substrate temperature of 430° C. AIN-Al2O3 composite film was found to have good surface stability below an oxidaton temperature of 1100°C and to have the best properties for insulation film.
