# Smoltek has been awarded another patent for the CNF-MIM technology

Smoltek’s new­ly approved patent in India is the sixth for the Dis­crete CNF-MIM patent fam­i­ly, dis­clos­ing our dis­rup­tive tech­nol­o­gy that uses car­bon nanofibers to cre­ate minia­tur­ized capac­i­tors with very high capacity.

> *This patent fur­ther strength­ens our posi­tion in advanced capac­i­tor tech­nol­o­gy as the semi­con­duc­tor indus­try moves toward ultra-thin capac­i­tors for tighter inte­gra­tion with elec­tron­ic com­po­nents with large pow­er con­sump­tion footprint.*

> Farzan Gha­vani­ni, CTO at Smoltek.

The Dis­crete CNF-MIM patents dis­close an ultra-thin capac­i­tor tech­nol­o­gy that could achieve extreme­ly high capac­i­tance den­si­ties thanks to unpar­al­leled sur­face den­si­ty pro­vid­ed by car­bon nanofibers. Such a tech­nol­o­gy enables advanced inte­gra­tion method­olo­gies bring­ing the capac­i­tors in the pow­er dis­tri­b­u­tion net­work as close as pos­si­ble to the proces­sors, which is cru­cial in areas like Arti­fi­cial Intel­li­gence (AI), Inter­net of Things (IoT), wear­able devices, and high-per­for­mance computing.

Smoltek’s patent port­fo­lio now glob­al­ly com­pris­es 94 grant­ed patents. [Read more about our IP and patents](https://www.smoltek.com/category/patents/).
