Smoltek is awarded an additional patent in the Discrete CNF-MIM patent family. The protected innovation in this patent family discloses a discrete capacitor component based on our CNF-MIM technology. This also brings our IP portfolio to comprise 94 granted patents.
Smoltek’s newÂly approved patent in India is the sixth for the DisÂcrete CNF-MIM patent famÂiÂly, disÂclosÂing our disÂrupÂtive techÂnolÂoÂgy that uses carÂbon nanofibers to creÂate miniaÂturÂized capacÂiÂtors with very high capacity.
This patent furÂther strengthÂens our posiÂtion in advanced capacÂiÂtor techÂnolÂoÂgy as the semiÂconÂducÂtor indusÂtry moves toward ultra-thin capacÂiÂtors for tighter inteÂgraÂtion with elecÂtronÂic comÂpoÂnents with large powÂer conÂsumpÂtion footprint.
Farzan GhaÂvaniÂni, CTO at Smoltek.
The DisÂcrete CNF-MIM patents disÂclose an ultra-thin capacÂiÂtor techÂnolÂoÂgy that could achieve extremeÂly high capacÂiÂtance denÂsiÂties thanks to unparÂalÂleled surÂface denÂsiÂty proÂvidÂed by carÂbon nanofibers. Such a techÂnolÂoÂgy enables advanced inteÂgraÂtion methodÂoloÂgies bringÂing the capacÂiÂtors in the powÂer disÂtriÂbÂuÂtion netÂwork as close as posÂsiÂble to the procesÂsors, which is cruÂcial in areas like ArtiÂfiÂcial IntelÂliÂgence (AI), InterÂnet of Things (IoT), wearÂable devices, and high-perÂforÂmance computing.

Smoltek’s patent portÂfoÂlio now globÂalÂly comÂprisÂes 94 grantÂed patents. Read more about our IP and patents.
