The N=21 nucleus 34Al, located at the boundary of the island of inversion, was studied via intermediate-energy Coulomb excitation. A γ ray with an energy of 657±9 keV has been observed in 34Al and its production cross section has been measured. This γ ray may connect states which are members of the low-lying neutron d5/2-f7/2 multiplet.
