Smoltek Semi & AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the collective term for technologies that enable computers to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence – such as recognizing images, understanding language, playing games or making decisions. It is based on algorithms, mathematical models and (now mainly) Machine Learning and Deep Learning, where neural networks are trained on large data sets.

Capacitors’ capacity for minimizing CO₂ footprint – a small story
In an age where environmental sustainability is of utter importance, it is crucial to find innovative solutions to reduce energy consumption and minimize our carbon footprint. One such solution is found in capacitors. These unassuming electronic components not only play an important role in various systems, but also offer significant environmental benefits. Albeit very small – if counted one by one.

Deep Trench Capacitors (DTC) is a dead end – CNF-MIM is the way forward
Modern electronics demand increasingly compact and powerful capacitors, and the race for miniaturization has reached a critical juncture. While both Deep Trench Capacitors (DTC) and Carbon Nanofiber Metal-Insulator-Metal (CNF-MIM) capacitors are being developed for advanced applications requiring smaller size and higher capacitance density than conventional surface-mounted capacitors, DTC pushes the boundaries of what’s achievable with subtractive manufacturing, but is hitting fundamental physical limits. In contrast, Smoltek’s innovative CNF-MIM technology offers a revolutionary path forward, unrestricted by these constraints.

Smoltek’s capacitor technology explained
Farzan Ghavanini, CTO and Head of R&D at Smoltek, explains the unique advantages of our disruptive carbon nanofiber capacitor technology. How we can make extremely small capacitors with high capacitance density, which is in high demand as the increasing power consumption of micro processors calls for ultrathin decoupling capacitors with Landside mounting.
