May 2024 marked a milestone month for WD Advanced Materials, as we set about: 1. ⚛ Bringing to market new #quantum-grade diamond products that promise to push the known boundaries of technology, spanning sensing, to compute, to biomedical applications 2. 📈 Increasing the form factor of our single crystal diamond substrates through Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)’s Large Area Device-quality Diamond Substrates program, to reach 2” then 4” for use in #microelectronics 3. 💡 Devising new #diamond technologies, from calibrated doping to next-gen epitaxial solutions, that address the thermal management and #AdvancedPackaging needs of our semiconductor industry partners 4. 🤝 Forging long-term partnerships, both close to home, and across the globe, to solve into the increasing complexity and demands of leading-edge technologies (more to be announced soon!) 5. 📣 Building a global ecosystem — on the heels of speaking at the Materials Research Society Washington meeting, and the Ceramics Expo / Thermal Management Expo earlier this month in Michigan, our Chief Technology Officer John Ciraldo and Chief Commercial Officer Brittany R. Lewis engaged with the international compound semiconductor community, sponsoring and attending CS MANTECH in Arizona from May 20-23. To close out May, our time this past week at the New Diamond & Nano Carbons (#NDNC) 2024 conference in Sydney, Australia further reinforced the readiness to adopt diamond as a solution.

"Ultrawide bandgap (#UWBG) materials like aluminum nitride, cubic boron nitride and #diamond have the potential to revolutionize #semiconductors and #electronics for a whole range of applications, from high-temperature electronics and sensors for extreme environments, to limiters and amplifiers for radar and communications systems, and high-voltage switches for power electronics." Diamond, the highest thermally conductive material on earth, offers an unmatched thermal management solution. No longer constrained to the theoretical potential, WD Advanced Materials offers real-world, immediate solutions today. In Novi, MI for the Ceramics Expo / Thermal Management Expo this week? Reach out to sales@wdadvanced.com to connect in-person with our CTO John Ciraldo, and don't miss our talk, "Exploring Diamond and Ceramics as Post-Silicon Semiconductor Materials," Wednesday, 5/1 at 11am, moderated by Matthias Muehle, PhD of Fraunhofer USA Inc. #ceramicsexpo #thermalmanagement #uwbgs #disruption #highpowerelectronics #postsilicon #innovation #nextgeneration

"Diamond is a form of pure carbon, in which carbon atoms bond tightly to one another in a pyramidal arrangement. The result is extreme hardness and radiation resistance, as well as the ability to conduct heat and electricity at unmatched rates. Diamonds are used in quantum computers and magnetic sensors, high-power electric devices, radiation detectors, and lasers." From exciting new growth techniques, to leading-edge products on the market today though WD Advanced Materials, there's no denying diamond is taking centerstage as a disruptive material solution. Read on for commentary from our CTO John Ciraldo, and thank you to Science Magazine for the mention: https://lnkd.in/ebFEvTHS #semiconductors #diamond #disruption #innovation #uwbgs #quantum
