Smoltek breaks the 1 µF/mm² barrier with ultra-thin profile
Smoltek Semi joins an elite club of companies achieving 1 µF/mm² capacitance density, but stands alone in reaching this milestone with an ultra-thin profile. This breakthrough unlocks the under-chip real estate that represents the holy grail of capacitor placement in modern electronics.
How Disruptive Innovation Accelerates Industrial Adoption
While traditional development processes often progress at a measured pace, truly disruptive technologies, such as Smoltek’s Porous Transport Electrode (PTE), can dramatically compress timelines. When faced with potentially market-changing innovations, industrial enterprises must choose between maintaining the status quo, slow internal development, or embracing partnership with innovative companies like Smoltek Hydrogen.
How Smoltek Hydrogen aligns development with customer needs – interview with Ellinor Ehrnberg
Taking a breakthrough technology from the lab bench to the world market often requires collaboration with large industrial enterprises. In this interview, Ellinor Ehrnberg, president of Smoltek Hydrogen, explains how the company aligns its own development with that of potential buyers while navigating the complex journey from initial interest to strategic partnership.
Navigating big-tech corporate product development as a small high-tech company
For industrial enterprises, bringing new technologies into existing product lines follows a structured process. Understanding this process is vital for high-tech companies seeking integration partnerships. Here, we explain the systematic journey that governs how industrial enterprises evaluate and adopt innovations, and how high-tech companies can create revenue opportunities at each stage along the way.
Capacitors’ capacity for minimizing CO₂ footprint – a small story
In an age where environmental sustainability is of utter importance, it is crucial to find innovative solutions to reduce energy consumption and minimize our carbon footprint. One such solution is found in capacitors. These unassuming electronic components not only play an important role in various systems, but also offer significant environmental benefits. Albeit very small – if counted one by one.
The last crusade for 0.1 mg iridium
In the race to make green hydrogen economically viable, researchers worldwide are pursuing the seemingly impossible: reducing iridium use in PEM electrolyzers by 95%. As Smoltek gets closer to this holy grail of 0.1 mg/cm², we examine how other technologies measure up.
Unlocking the green hydrogen economy
When experts talk about the energy systems of the future, they often come back to one specific number: 0.1 milligrams per square centimeter (0.1 mg/cm²). This seemingly insignificant number could be critical to moving green hydrogen from a promising concept to an economic reality.
Deep Trench Capacitors (DTC) is a dead end – CNF-MIM is the way forward
Modern electronics demand increasingly compact and powerful capacitors, and the race for miniaturization has reached a critical juncture. While both Deep Trench Capacitors (DTC) and Carbon Nanofiber Metal-Insulator-Metal (CNF-MIM) capacitors are being developed for advanced applications requiring smaller size and higher capacitance density than conventional surface-mounted capacitors, DTC pushes the boundaries of what’s achievable with subtractive manufacturing, but is hitting fundamental physical limits. In contrast, Smoltek’s innovative CNF-MIM technology offers a revolutionary path forward, unrestricted by these constraints.
A German journey into the hydrogen future
An interview with Smoltek Hydrogen CEO Ellinor Ehrnberg about her recent visit to Germany and the rapid acceleration of the hydrogen economy.
Smoltek’s PTE technology stands out expert states in interview
Leading PEM technology expert Dr. Felix Büchi has completed an independent assessment of Smoltek Hydrogen’s Porous Transport Electrode (PTE) technology, confirming its unique ability to dramatically reduce iridium usage while maintaining high performance in hydrogen production. In an exclusive interview with Smoltek Hydrogen’s President, Ellinor Ehrnberg, Büchi shares insights about the technology’s distinctive advantages and market potential.
Why Smoltek’s CNF-MIM tech could revolutionize ultra-thin capacitors
The ultra-thin capacitor market is entering a new phase as major players like Murata and Samsung invest heavily in silicon-based solutions. In a recent interview, YAGEO Group's CTO Philip Lessner explains why Smoltek's CNF-MIM technology could offer superior advantages to silicon-based solutions in this rapidly growing market.
9 questions for Smoltek’s CEO
Smoltek’s CEO, Håkan Persson, answers nine key questions about the company’s financial status, ongoing projects, and strategy. From the latest on the bidding process to the outlook for their semiconductor and hydrogen initiatives, this candid Q&A provides valuable insights for shareholders and stakeholders alike.
