Including chemically-hardened aluminosilicate (e.g. Corning Gorilla Glass®), ceramic glass (e.g. Corning Ceramic Shield®), BK-7, & more--specifically targeting the needs of smartphone, wearable, automotive and Virtual Reality (VR/AR) systems. The end result? Displays which are harder, stronger, & thinner while running cooler to the touch, all with the brilliance and beauty of real diamond.
AKHAN Miraj Diamond® Optics deliver the advantageous properties of bulk natural diamond in proprietary thin-films conducive for single & multilayer optical windows, mirrors, and lenses – enabling new capabilities such as enhanced erosion protection in extreme environments such as rain, sand, etc. With high optical transmissivity over broad wavelengths, our materials are well suited for applications ranging from Near UV-Visible to Far Infrared.
AKHAN has unique industry expertise regarding low temperature deposition of large area diamond with near single crystal optical constants on diverse substrates. AKHAN also has a broad intellectual property base including issued and pending patents focused on optics and protective multi-layer antireflective diamond coatings.
Formed in 2013, AKHAN is a premier semiconductor company focused on Diamond and Nanocarbon technologies. We’re revolutionizing the transition from Silicon to Diamond as we pioneer the future of semiconductor markets: from display glass to optics, from thermal management to monolithically integrated diamond ICs, AKHAN is ushering in a ‘Diamond Age’ of Electronics.
