<\/p>\n

As chip designs become more compact, complex and vertically integrated, conventional tools are increasingly reaching their limits in terms of resolution, speed and non-invasiveness. QuantumDiamonds’ Quantum Diamond Microscope (QDM) provides high-resolution, wide-field magnetic imaging based on nitrogen vacancy centers in diamonds, enabling nanoscale current mapping within multilayer and heterogeneously integrated chips.<\/p>\n

Professor Amrouch has deep expertise in semiconductor reliability, advanced packaging, high-efficiency AI processors and advanced CMOS technologies, making him an ideal partner for adapting QDM to future-proof diagnostic workflows for next-generation computing systems.<\/p>\n

“Collaborations like this are exactly what we need to push boundaries,” said Kevin Berghoff, CEO and co-founder of QuantumDiamonds. “When cutting-edge chip design meets disruptive measurement technology, new opportunities arise. Not just technologically, but along the entire semiconductor value chain.”<\/p>\n

The partnership supports shared goals in the areas of design-for-diagnosis, AI accelerator verification and scalable, non-destructive testing, which are critical to improving yield, time-to-market and confidence in advanced semiconductor systems.<\/p>\n
