Smoltek signs evaluation license agreement with leading capacitor manufacturer

Smoltek announces that the company has signed an evaluation agreement with one of the world’s largest capacitor manufacturers. The agreement concerns a project with a license for evaluation of Smoltek’s patented carbon nanofiber-based CNF-MIM technology. The intention is to replace the evaluation agreement with a production license agreement as a next step. The order value for this first step amounts to approximately SEK 1 million.

The agree­ment will be val­id until August 2020, with the pos­sib­il­ity to exten­sion. Dur­ing this time, the lead­ing capa­cit­or man­u­fac­turer will eval­u­ate Smoltek’s CNF-MIM tech­no­logy from both a tech­nic­al and com­mer­cial per­spect­ive with the ambi­tion to sign a pro­duc­tion license agree­ment as a next step.

“This is the first license agree­ment that we have signed for our CNF-MIM tech­no­logy, mak­ing it an import­ant mile­stone for Smol­tek. Both parties under­stand that our tech­no­logy has great poten­tial in the mar­ket for mini­atur­ized high-per­form­ing capa­cit­ors,” says Smoltek’s CEO Anders Johansson.

Dur­ing the autumn of 2019, Smol­tek was able to demon­strate that the company’s CNF-MIM tech­no­logy is com­pet­it­ive from an indus­tri­al per­spect­ive as it offers improved per­form­ance while using just a frac­tion of the space needed for con­ven­tion­al capacitors.

“A sub­stan­tial reduc­tion of the capa­cit­or thick­ness is highly coveted in advanced 2.5D and 3D semi­con­duct­or cir­cuit pack­aging solu­tions,” says Smoltek’s COO Ola Tiverman.
