Synthetic diamonds and ultrapure glass open up new horizons in the production of microchips.
A real revolution is being planned in the field of microelectronics: synthetic diamonds and ultra-pure glass promise to bring the performance of microchips to a new level. Experts predict that these materials can reduce operating temperatures and triple the performance of computing processors.
Temperature control is a critical task in the design of microchips, and progress in traditional technologies is slowing down. However, manufacturing companies such as Diamond Foundry and Intel offer an innovative approach.
Diamond Foundry develops synthetic diamond wafers that allow you to double the speed of chips. At the same time, tests of an unnamed GPU model from Nvidia showed a three-fold increase in performance compared to chips made from standard materials.
Intel is focused on producing ultra-pure glass for microprocessor substrates, which should increase energy efficiency and improve the interaction between chips. This technology is already in the testing phase and is expected to be mass-produced towards the end of the decade.
It is worth noting that Diamond Foundry will soon cease to be a monopolist in the production of diamond-based chips. Coherent and Element Six are also developing polycrystalline diamond wafers, and Element Six can offer even larger diamonds.
Such promising developments point to a possible turnaround in the hardware industry. Andi Bechtolsheim, co-founder of Sun Microsystems, suggests that in the future we may get semiconductors that do not need silicon at all.
The future of cybersecurity is inextricably linked to the development of microchip manufacturing technologies, and the presented innovations can play a key role in strengthening the protection of digital systems by improving their performance and reliability.
