Smoltek has received a new patent for the CNF-MIM technology

Smoltek is awarded yet another patent in the Discrete CNF-MIM patent family. The innovation discloses a discrete capacitor component based on our CNF-MIM technology that can achieve unparalleled high capacitance density. This also brings our IP portfolio to comprise 95 granted patents.

Smoltek’s new­ly approved patent in Korea is the sev­enth for the Dis­crete CNF-MIM patent fam­i­ly. Dis­crete CNF-MIM is an inno­va­tion that exploits the extra­or­di­nary sur­face-to-vol­ume ratio enabled by our car­bon nanofiber technology.

“This Kore­an 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.”, says 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.
