Composite Diamond
Composite Diamond material (CD) is a high thermally conductive substrate material of 600 W/mK and a CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) of 3.00 ppm/K. It is a suitable material for devices with small heat sources, such as Laser Diodes (LD), Laser Diode Arrays (LDA) and high power microelectronic devices.
This material can be polished to high surface qualities and flatness. Due to our high precision laser cutting processes, we can achieve edge quality needs for Laser Diodes and LDA’s. A wide range of thin film metallizations is available including basic Ti/Pt/Au and AuSn materials for advanced soldering needs.
