Consumer Electronics manufacturers spend billions of dollars on R&D each year so that our devices continue to evolve. What consumers really want, after spending so much on a new smartphone, is glass that won’t break when dropped (the number one cause of harm to handheld devices). Creating new devices that are attractively thin and light, wider and durable means the screen glass technology itself must change. AKHAN is disrupting the display glass industry with its innovative Miraj Diamond® Glass products, delivering stronger, lighter, and more durable display solutions-- enabling the next-generation of consumer electronics devices. From foldable smartphones to virtual reality headsets, we're leading the world with our diamond-based solutions.
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.
In every industry, silicon, silicon carbide, and gallium nitride materials have been outperformed by AKHAN’s Miraj Diamond® nanocarbon materials. Our team has pioneered diamond solutions for both optical and electronics applications.
