Smoltek Semi develops CNF-MIM – a proprietary capacitor technology based on carbon nanofibers, which is intended to meet the demands of next-generation electronics, including applications in AI, smartphones and automotive electronics.
Smoltek Semi’s CNF-MIM capacitor technology offers up to 50 percent higher capacitance density compared to existing solutions. The technology is scalable, cost-effective and compatible with multiple substrate types – including silicon, glass and aluminum – and is being developed in close collaboration with leading players in the semiconductor ecosystem, including ITRI and Tong Hsing in Taiwan.
During the period 2025–2026, Smoltek Semi plans to carry out several important activities, including technical validation of the Gen-One technology generation, customer evaluations, and initial discussions regarding future licensing agreements with industrial partners.
