Smoltek’s IR blog

Wel­come to the Smoltek blog! Here, we write for share­hold­ers and prospec­tive investors. We expand on tech­ni­cal and finan­cial news, pro­vid­ing back­ground infor­ma­tion and clar­i­fy­ing what makes it note­wor­thy and how it affects our business.

The tone is infor­mal and some­times play­ful. That’s inten­tion­al. Our aim is to make it easy and enjoy­able for you to under­stand our tech­nol­o­gy and busi­ness. We believe that the most valu­able share­hold­ers and investors are those who under­stand our oper­a­tions and believe in what we do. This is a lot to ask, giv­en how tech­ni­cal­ly and com­mer­cial­ly advanced our work is. But we have faith in you.

High-volume production of capacitors

High-volume production of capacitors

Octo­ber 12, 2023

Smoltek has pro­duced a quar­ter mil­lion capac­i­tors (with­out car­bon nanofiber) and has begun pro­duc­ing a new batch (with car­bon nanofiber). This is huge because it shows that our high-vol­ume man­u­fac­tur­ing process works. It is intend­ed to be used to pro­duce engi­neer­ing sam­ples. You could read about this in a press release. In this arti­cle, we unpack what this means.

Smoltek holds unique world patents for tech­nolo­gies that make mate­r­i­al engi­neer­ing on an atom­ic lev­el pos­si­ble. Smoltek has solu­tions that allow con­tin­ued minia­tur­iza­tion and increased per­for­mance of semi­con­duc­tors, con­tribute to car­bon-free steel pro­duc­tion and renew­able ener­gy stor­age, and enable mind con­trol of robot­ic pros­the­ses. This is a sto­ry of how Smoltek came to be.

This is the third and last arti­cle in a series of three in which Smoltek founder and strate­gic advi­sor Shafiq Kabir share his per­son­al thoughts on nan­otech­nol­o­gy oppor­tu­ni­ties. In the pre­vi­ous two arti­cles, he has addressed both the hype and the real­i­ty of car­bon nan­otech­nol­o­gy. In this last arti­cle, he looks into the future. He dis­cuss­es how car­bon nan­otech­nol­o­gy will unleash the pow­er of the inter­net of everything.
