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.
Smoltek’s patent portfolio now globally comprises 95 granted patents. Read more about our IP and patents.
