Raw Description
Product | We have developed a new sensor to detect chemicals in the air. Replacing metal oxide where traditional sensor used by our new invented material OM, we now obtain sensor chip that is 1) Perfectly functional in room temperature and pressure; 2) Long-lasting which function properly after 12 months; 3) Printable on different surfaces and materials and remain bendable as well. | The sensor can also be integrated into smartphones or other smart gadgets because of the low power consumption where less than 0.1W is required. || OM Sciences focus on sensor and nanomaterial development. Our sensor can detect and analyze | different chemicals in the air, which can be used as an air quality monitor. | We are determined to solve three bottlenecks in the industry | 1. Short shelf-life. | 2. Only function in harsh condition and | 3. Difficult fabrication process on the substrate. | Different generations of OM materials are now patent-pending and ready to launch in the coming years.

Strategic Analysis

Executive Brief

OM Sciences is a deep-tech startup specializing in next-generation gas and chemical sensors utilizing a proprietary nanomaterial ("OM"). Their technology disrupts the market by enabling room-temperature detection, low power consumption (<0.1W), and flexible/printable form factors. They are currently addressing industry bottlenecks related to sensor longevity, fabrication complexity, and environmental operating constraints.

Strategic Fit & Lead Score

Lead Score: 68/100

  • 60-79: Adjacent Tech (Nanomaterials, Sensing, IoT) → Strong potential.

Why this Score? While OM Sciences currently focuses on a proprietary printable material, their growth trajectory toward "industrial grade" and "smart gadget integration" will inevitably hit the physical limits of standard polymer or metal-oxide substrates. 6Cā€™s diamond technology provides the ultimate platform for ultra-stable, high-sensitivity sensing. As OM Sciences moves from consumer air quality to industrial/harsh environment monitoring, diamond becomes the necessary "hardened" substrate or electrode material to maintain their 12-month+ stability promise.

6C Solutions Proposal

Application Area 6C Solution Technical Value Prop
Industrial Hardening Diamond-on-Substrate Coating Direct MPCVD diamond coating on sensor substrates to provide a chemically inert, ultra-hard barrier that extends sensor life in corrosive industrial environments (e.g., H2S, SOx).
Hybrid Electrochemical Sensing Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) If OM Sciences expands from gas to liquid sensing (Water Quality), BDD electrodes offer the widest electrochemical window and zero fouling, outperforming their current nanomaterial in longevity.
Thermal Management PCD Heat Spreaders For high-density sensor arrays integrated into smartphones, 6Cā€™s PCD wafers provide thermal conductivity >1800 W/mK, preventing sensor drift caused by localized processor heat.
Surface Engineering SCD Substrates (Ra < 1nm) Providing ultra-flat Single Crystal Diamond substrates for "OM" material characterization to eliminate substrate interference/noise in high-precision R&D phases.
In-house Synthesis Custom MPCVD Reactor As OM Sciences scales their "different generations of OM materials," 6C can provide the MPCVD hardware to allow them to dope or functionalize their materials with diamond-like carbon or nanocrystalline diamond.

Engagement Hooks

  • Technical Question: "Your OM material achieves room-temperature functionality, but how does the baseline signal hold up in high-humidity or corrosive industrial 'acid-gas' environments over that 12-month period? Would an inert, wide-bandgap diamond interface stabilize your printable architecture?"
  • Value Statement: "6C can transform your 12-month shelf-life into a multi-year 'deploy-and-forget' solution by providing the world's most chemically stable diamond-based substrates and protective coatings."
