The most thermally conductive bulk substance is high-purity synthetic diamond. CVD diamond adds a new level to thermal control in electronics, prolonging device lifetime, lowering device footprint, and improving efficiency and effectiveness. This is especially important for the semiconductor manufacturing process where this enables innovations for technologies like 5G, electric vehicles, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and defence and security applications.

CVD diamond translates a competitive advantage in electronic thermal control where power, temperature, and reliability are essential factors.

Highest Room-Temperature Thermal Conductivity of Any Material

Heat is the single most common cause of electronic failure. Theoretically, lowering the operating junction temperature by 10° C can quadruple the life of a gadget. CVD diamond beats today's standard thermal management materials, like copper, silicon carbide, and aluminum nitride, by orders of magnitude.
