Abstract

Abstract An aluminum nitride-based sintered body having a high thermal conductivity and a total oxygen content of 0.01 to 20% by weight which is prepared by mixing a main component of aluminum nitride powder containing 0.001 to 7% by weight of oxygen with 0.01 to 15% by weight of at least one of the group consisting of a powder of a rare earth element and/or powder of a material containing the rate earth element (said 0.01 to 15% by weight being counted on the basis of the content of the rare earth element), and sintering said powder mixture.
