Diamonds in Defense: Northrop Grumman’s Secret to Next-Gen Power and Protection

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.
