156.47 Carats, the World's Largest Cultivated Diamond Born in Henan
Recently, at the 15th China Henan International Investment and Trade Negotiation Conference, Power Diamond announced that it has successfully cultivated a 156.47-carat diamond rough using the high-temperature and high-pressure method. It has also passed the inspection of the International Gemological Institute (IGI). This diamond is the largest known single crystal of artificial cultivated diamond in the world, breaking the previous record of 150.42 carats held by Meylor Global Company in 2022, marking the arrival of the era of diamond functional application.
A relevant person from Power Diamond stated that with the explosion of 5G, 6G, AI, and quantum computing, the integration level of chips is increasing, and the heat flow density is continuously rising. Heat dissipation has become a key issue restricting chip performance. The thermal conductivity of diamond is more than five times that of copper and ten times that of silicon, making it the ideal heat dissipation material. This technological breakthrough holds significant meaning for the application of cultivated diamonds in the field of semiconductor heat dissipation.
From the perspective of capital market impact, apart from the semiconductor materials sector, this technological breakthrough will directly promote the development of the entire cultivated diamond industry, improve product quality and application scope, and related companies are expected to benefit from the market expansion brought about by technological progress. At the same time, the high-end manufacturing equipment sector will also benefit. The improvement of cultivated diamond technology requires precise manufacturing equipment support, and related equipment manufacturers are expected to face new development opportunities.
