Distinguished by its excellent thermal conductivity, Beryllium Oxide is an ideal material for applications requiring large heat dissipation as well as dielectric and mechanical strength. It is particularly well suited for use as a diode laser and semiconductor heat sinks and as a rapid thermal transfer medium for miniaturized circuitry and tightly contained electronic assemblages.
