Technology drives the world forward. Smoltek is ready to make space for the next technological leap in the semiconductor and hydrogen industries.
Our patent-protected technology radically increases the available surface for chemical and electrical processes, enabling more compact, energy-efficient, powerful and cost-efficient products.
The number of transistors on microchips is doubled every second year, driven by the quest for more computing power. With our technology for ultra-thin capacitors that make space on microchips, the semiconductor industry can once again meet rising demands for higher performance.
The interest in green hydrogen is taking off, but the current need for iridium drives costs, making upscaling difficult. With our technology for compact electrolyzers using a minimum of precious catalyst particles, the green hydrogen industry can turn prospects into business.
Approximately 1,000 billion semiconductors are produced worldwide annually. To understand the magnitude of the business, that number corresponds to 125 semiconductors per person and year. Modern electric cars usually contain 2,000 semiconductors.
A rapidly evolving market. In 2021, the global PEM (Proton-exchange membrane) electrolyzer market was valued at USD 737 million. This figure is expected to rise to almost USD 4,3 billion in 2027.
Smoltek is developing process technology and concepts for applications in order to solve advanced materials engineering problems. By pioneering carbon nanotechnology we are literally pushing the limits of what is possible in the semiconductor and hydrogen industries.
Our patent protected technology platform is based on carbon nanofibers (CNFs), which have very exciting properties, that may disrupt technical solutions where today’s materials have reached their limit of performance.
As an example, we have developed a prototype of the world’s smallest capacitor and we are developing a new cell-material with the ambition to double (or even triple) the area-efficiency of PEM water-electrolyzers.
We are scientists and engineers with a passion for nanotechnology. We are in the never-ending search of how to enhance and fabricate carbon nanostructures, with unique properties, in pre-defined patterns to enable better solutions within several industries.

Make your moveIn this interview, Farzan Ghavanini, CTO at Smotek, talks about how Smoltek Semi has developed a new technology generation of our CNF-MIM capacitor technology. The new generation, called Gen-Zero, is the foundation for achieving the goal of manufacturing different types of capacitors with very high capacitance density – by enabling high volumetric capacitance density.

Smoltek Hydrogen has produced hydrogen, for 1,000 hours with a catalyst load of only 0.2 milligrams of iridium/cm2, without any breakdown of the nanostructure in the cell having occurred.
Smoltek and Yageo have collaborated for a long time to enter into an agreement regarding the further development and commercialization of capacitors based on Smoltek’s CNF-MIM technology. In December both parties announced the intention to enter into a license and service agreement. However, yesterday Yageo choose not to sign the agreement.
Smoltek has been awarded two new patent grants in a patent family called Discrete CNF-MIM. The protected innovation discloses a discrete capacitor component based on our CNF-MIM technology. With these two patents, our IP portfolio will now comprise 89 granted patents.
Smoltek has three new patents granted – in three new and separate patent families, all related to how our technology can reduce contact resistance between different layers in electrochemical cells, mainly for use in electrolyzers and fuel cells. These new patents also bring our IP portfolio to comprise 87 granted patents.
