Home > Silicon on Sapphire

Silicon on Sapphire is an integrated circuit manufacturing technology used to make radiation hardened chips for aerospace and military applications. Typically, high-purity artifically grown sapphire crystals are used. The advantage of sapphire is that it is an excellent electrical insulator, preventing stray currents caused by radiation from spreading to nearby circuit elements.
