Shaping the next world through the power of diamond science and technology.
What does it take to challenge a technology that no one has ever reached? Is it knowledge? Experience? Intuition? Or perhaps, resolve?
The world of diamond semiconductors is a realm where the "right answer" does not yet exist. That is why we never stop questioning:
"Why has it not been done?" "How can we surpass the limit?"
To work with a material that thrives at the extremes is to continuously challenge one's own limits. And the technologies born from this pursuit will reach out— To deep space, to the quantum realm, and to the future of energy.
It is the courage to step into these frontier territories that will define the new standard for semiconductors.

Kanazawa University Launches the “Diamond Research Center (ARCDia)”
Message
Translating World-Leading Technology into Social Impact
Kanazawa University launched its diamond semiconductor research in 2009. Since the breakthrough development of the world’s first inversion-mode diamond MOSFET in 2016, we have continued to accelerate our cutting-edge research in this field.
Established in October 2025, our Center aims to maximize these unique seeds of innovation. With diamond—the ultimate semiconductor material—at our core, we are expanding our research into space applications, quantum technology, and interdisciplinary fusion. Our mission is to establish a world-class research hub that leads the global advancement of diamond science and technology toward practical social implementation.
We are committed to deepening diamond science and technology and ensuring its widespread adoption to drive innovations that solve the complex challenges facing our society today.
