Diamond Technologies Acquires Akhan's Diamond Film Portfolio for Semiconductor Advancements

Diamond Technologies Inc has acquired AKHAN Semiconductor's complete asset portfolio, including patents in diamond films. The acquisition positions Diamond Technologies at the forefront of advanced materials innovation, with a patent portfolio focused on diamond film systems, manufacturing methods, and substrate integration. The firm aims to commercialize key technologies in AKHAN's Miraj Diamond platform, targeting applications in thermally superior wafer substrates, next-generation tooling, and diamond coatings for optical, defense, and display technologies. Diamond Technologies is actively seeking strategic partners for co-development, licensing, and technology integration.

Diamond Technologies Inc. (DTI) has acquired the complete asset portfolio of Akhan Semiconductor, Inc., a leading innovator in diamond-based materials for advanced electronics. The acquisition, announced on June 20, 2025, includes all patents, trade secrets, intellectual property, proprietary machinery, and engineered materials developed by Akhan over the past decade [1][2].

The acquisition positions DTI at the forefront of advanced materials innovation, with a patent portfolio focused on diamond film systems, manufacturing methods, and substrate integration. These technologies are increasingly sought after by semiconductor foundries and equipment manufacturers facing the limitations of legacy materials [1][2].

Jerry McGuire, CEO of Diamond Technologies Inc., stated, "Leading-edge semiconductor companies and equipment makers are in a race to break through the thermal and physical barriers of traditional materials. The diamond technologies now under DTI’s control represent a viable, scalable path forward for the entire industry" [1][2].

DTI plans to commercialize key technologies in Akhan’s Miraj Diamond® platform, with initial focus on applications such as thermally superior wafer substrates and spreaders for high-performance semiconductors, next-generation tooling and wear-resistant components for chip fabrication, and diamond coatings for optical, defense, and display technologies [1][2].

The company has identified several strategic intersections between the acquired intellectual property and ongoing initiatives in lithography, photonics, and thermal management at leading chipmakers and semiconductor tool suppliers. DTI is actively seeking strategic partners for co-development, licensing, and technology integration, aiming to deploy Miraj Diamond® technologies in commercial applications across semiconductors, aerospace, optics, and defense [1][2].

Diamond Technologies Inc. is a materials innovation company developing and commercializing diamond-based solutions across various sectors, including semiconductors, aerospace, defense, optics, and industrial applications. With the acquisition of Akhan Semiconductor’s assets, DTI now owns one of the most advanced patent portfolios in synthetic diamond technologies, enabling a new class of ultra-hard, thermally conductive, and optically clear materials to power next-generation technologies [1][2].
