In Sep­tem­ber, Smoltek Semi attend­ed ECOC 2026, with the aim to eval­u­ate the mar­ket poten­tial of the company’s ultra-thin CNF-MIM capac­i­tors with­in opti­cal com­mu­ni­ca­tion applications.

ECOC (Euro­pean Con­fer­ence on Opti­cal Com­mu­ni­ca­tion) is Europe’s lead­ing con­fer­ence and exhi­bi­tion for opti­cal com­mu­ni­ca­tion and pho­ton­ics, where researchers, tech­nol­o­gy com­pa­nies, and indus­try lead­ers gath­er to present new tech­nolo­gies and dis­cuss the future of opti­cal com­mu­ni­ca­tion systems.

“We met with play­ers in opti­cal com­po­nents, inte­gra­tion, and advanced pack­ag­ing, among oth­ers, to exam­ine the types of capac­i­tors they cur­rent­ly use, their spec­i­fi­ca­tions, and the oppor­tu­ni­ties for inte­grat­ing Smoltek’s extreme­ly thin capac­i­tors clos­er to the active cir­cuits in opti­cal and elec­tron­ic components.”
