Making space for the next leap
Technology drives the world forward. Smoltek is ready to make space for the next technological leap in the semiconductor and hydrogen industries.
Our patent-protected technology radically increases the available surface for chemical and electrical processes, enabling more compact, energy-efficient, powerful and cost-efficient products.
Unleashing performance for semiconductors
The number of transistors on microchips is doubled every second year, driven by the quest for more computing power. With our technology for ultra-thin capacitors that make space on microchips, the semiconductor industry can once again meet rising demands for higher performance.
Unleashing the scale-up of green hydrogen
The interest in green hydrogen is taking off, but the current need for iridium drives costs, making upscaling difficult. With our technology for compact electrolyzers using a minimum of precious catalyst particles, the green hydrogen industry can turn prospects into business.
Semiconductors – present almost everywhere
Approximately 1,000 billion semiconductors are produced worldwide annually. To understand the magnitude of the business, that number corresponds to 125 semiconductors per person and year. Modern electric cars usually contain 2,000 semiconductors.
Green hydrogen – for a fossil free future
A rapidly evolving market. In 2021, the global PEM (Proton-exchange membrane) electrolyzer market was valued at USD 737 million. This figure is expected to rise to almost USD 4,3 billion in 2027.
Pushing the limits of nanotechnology
Smoltek is developing process technology and concepts for applications in order to solve advanced materials engineering problems. By pioneering carbon nanotechnology we are literally pushing the limits of what is possible in the semiconductor and hydrogen industries.
Our patent protected technology platform is based on carbon nanofibers (CNFs), which have very exciting properties, that may disrupt technical solutions where today’s materials have reached their limit of performance.
As an example, we have developed a prototype of the world’s smallest capacitor and we are developing a new cell-material with the ambition to double (or even triple) the area-efficiency of PEM water-electrolyzers.
A passion that never fades
We are scientists and engineers with a passion for nanotechnology. We are in the never-ending search of how to enhance and fabricate carbon nanostructures, with unique properties, in pre-defined patterns to enable better solutions within several industries.

Smoltek has received a new patent for improving the capacitance density of CNF-MIM capacitors
Smoltek has received a new patent for improving the capacitance density of our CNF-MIM capacitors. This innovation, a type of capacitor, can increase the capacitance density by two to three times, which is crucial for Smoltek’s business and technology growth.
Circularity – using hydrogen in the carbon nanofiber production process
During the spring, we have had John Schack, a master’s thesis student, with us at Smoltek Hydrogen who has been working on the synthesis of carbon nanofibers (CNF) – where we have adjusted the growth recipe to use hydrogen as input instead of ammonia.
Smoltek Hydrogen has achieved A4 size plasma
Towards scalability of industrial carbon nanofiber growth: The development of the industrial manufacturing concept for Smoltek Hydrogen’s Electrolyzer Cell Material is at its final stages, with aim on being finalized during 2024. As a stepping stone, the capability in the company’s existing Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) tool has been extended and A4 size plasma has been achieved. This is a crucial step towards industrial scalability of carbon nanofiber growth.
Smoltek receives 22.4 million through a rights issue
Smoltek Nanotech Holding AB carried out a rights issue during May and June, which was subscribed to 86.4 percent. As a result, approximately SEK 22.4 million was added to the company, before issue costs.
We have the technology to make production of green hydrogen profitable
Smoltek Hydrogen has developed a new material that solves the major technical challenge that threatens to halt the fast-growing industry for green hydrogen produced by intermittent energy sources, such as solar and wind power. With the groundbreaking nanomaterial, the use of iridium (catalysts) in PEM electrolyzers can be reduced to levels that make large-scale hydrogen production profitable.
The future for the capacitor industry
Interview with Philip Lessner, CTO of Yageo Group about the future of the capacitor industry, the market and technology needs for ultra-thin capacitors. And how CNF-MIM technology fits into this market. This is a follow-up to last year’s interview, about how the two companies were a perfect fit. Yageo remains interested in Smoltek’s CNF-MIM capacitors and sees great potential for using CNF-MIM capacitors now and in the future.
