Abstract:

CDimension is rethinking chip design from the ground up, delivering solutions that are faster, smarter, and more compact.

We’re moving beyond the limitations of traditional technology.

Our foundational innovations in advanced materials and semiconductor integration unlock unprecedented gains in performance, efficiency, and scalability – ranging from 10x to 1,000x times greater than current approaches.

Our first milestone: the commercial release of ultra-thin 2D semiconductor materials — a foundational step toward our vision of vertically integrated systems that unify compute, memory, and power.

Dr. Jiadi Zhu

CEO

CDimension

Jiadi Zhu is the CEO and founder of CDimension, a company rethinking chip design to deliver faster, smarter, more compact solutions for the most demanding and complex computing workloads. His vision is to redefine how chips are designed, not just for higher performance, but for fundamentally better structure and efficiency.

Jiadi’s technical foundation spans over a decade of work at the frontier of 2D materials, monolithic 3D integration, and device scaling. He earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and has been recognized across both academia and industry for his originality in device design, novel semiconductor materials, and integration.

His research–from MIT to the lab bench of CDimension–has focused on how to break architectural bottlenecks through physics-aware, layout-driven design. Jiadi’s research has been widely cited in the field and published and presented in top-tier journals and conferences, including Nature Nanotechnology and IEEE’s International Electron Devices Meeting.

Jiadi’s transition from research into startup leadership has drawn attention from leaders in semiconductors, high-performance computing, and next-generation AI hardware. Today, under Jiadi’s leadership, CDimension is overcoming the limitations of traditional chip architectures and delivering significantly better performance, efficiency, and scalability across modern computing environments.
