Groundbreaking research is underway at Northrop Grumman’s Microelectronics Center (NGMC) which is reshaping physicists’ understanding of diamonds, positioning them as the next-generation material used in manufacturing microelectronics. Today, successful tests are verifying that diamonds are key to the future of semiconductor solutions.
The battlespace is evolving with new, high-powered threats that are hard to address due to the rapid pace of technology development, but this hard gem is proving to be the answer to a new age of warfare. Diamond-based technologies can provide RF electronics with a material that exceed the limits of today’s available solutions.
- Diamonds can withstand extremely hot temperatures without melting or failing
- Diamonds conduct heat five times better than copper
- Diamonds can handle significant power passing through them.
