semiconductor devices, based on diamond, to the energy industry. These devices utilise proprietary

approaches to overcome the perceived limitations of diamond as a semiconductor material. These components

will be embedded in power electronic systems with applications ranging from energy source grid interfaces,

grid control technologies to large-scale end-use applications. Completion of this project will prepare the

technology to be taken to market through a commercialisation phase starting with a diode product that will

considerably improve the performance of existing power transistors, paving the way for a fully diamond

replacement that will significantly reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of grid level power electronics.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
