Smoltek is seeking strong partners for industrialization of CNF-MIM capacitors
Smoltek’s CNF-MIM techÂnolÂoÂgy offers a comÂpetÂiÂtive alterÂnaÂtive to silÂiÂcon capacÂiÂtors for ultra-thin high-perÂforÂmance capacÂiÂtors used in procesÂsors for mobile phones and comÂputÂers. The next-genÂerÂaÂtion capacÂiÂtors, Gen-One, is planned to be comÂpletÂed by the end of 2024, matchÂing comÂpetiÂtors in perÂforÂmance with an excepÂtionÂalÂly thin form facÂtor. The strateÂgic objecÂtive is to pair up with a finanÂcialÂly strong partÂner for the indusÂtriÂalÂizaÂtion and comÂmerÂcialÂizaÂtion of the capacitors.

The future for the capacitor industry
InterÂview with Philip LessÂner, CTO of Yageo Group about the future of the capacÂiÂtor indusÂtry, the marÂket and techÂnolÂoÂgy needs for ultra-thin capacÂiÂtors. And how CNF-MIM techÂnolÂoÂgy fits into this marÂket. This is a folÂlow-up to last year’s interÂview, about how the two comÂpaÂnies were a perÂfect fit. Yageo remains interÂestÂed in Smoltek’s CNF-MIM capacÂiÂtors and sees great potenÂtial for using CNF-MIM capacÂiÂtors now and in the future.
