The aim of this paper is to review emerging technology "Diamond Chip" also known as Carbon Chip. Electronics without silicon is unbelievable, but it will come true with the evolution of Diamond or Carbon chip. Now a days we are using silicon for the manufacturing of Electronic Chips. It has many disadvantages when it is used in power electronic applications, such as bulk in size, slow operating speed etc. Now research people found that Carbon is more advantages than Silicon. By using carbon as the manufacturing material, we can achieve smaller, faster and stronger chips. They are succeeded in making smaller prototypes of Carbon chip. They invented a major component using carbon that is "CARBON NANOTUBE", which is widely used in most modern microprocessors. Manufacturers plan to build a diamond chip that can withstand temperatures of 500° C, compared to only about 150°C for silicon chips. The chips would be most useful in devices located near hot-burning engines, such as those used in automobiles or airplanes.

Abstract


The aim of this paper is to review emerging technology "Diamond Chip" also known as Carbon Chip. Electronics without silicon is unbelievable, but it will come true with the evolution of Diamond or Carbon chip. Now a days we are using silicon for the manufacturing of Electronic Chips. It has many disadvantages when it is used in power electronic applications, such as bulk in size, slow operating speed etc. Now research people found that Carbon is more advantages than Silicon. By using carbon as the manufacturing material, we can achieve smaller, faster and stronger chips. They are succeeded in making smaller prototypes of Carbon chip. They invented a major component using carbon that is "CARBON NANOTUBE", which is widely used in most modern microprocessors. Manufacturers plan to build a diamond chip that can withstand temperatures of 500° C, compared to only about 150°C for silicon chips. The chips would be most useful in devices located near hot-burning engines, such as those used in automobiles or airplanes.
