Picosun Patents ALD nanolaminate to Prevent Electronics From Overheating
ESPOO, Finland, September 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Picosun Oy, the leading provider of high quality industrial ALD (Atomic Layer
Deposition) technology, has patented a novel ALD nanolaminate to protect electronics such
as smartphones, tablets, computers, and lighting devices from overheating.

As both consumer and industrial electronics become faster, smaller, and more efficient
day by day, overheating of the components such as batteries, microprocessors, and LEDs has
become one of the key problems in the industry. Overheating leads to performance losses,
failures in operation, and shortening of the device lifespan - and even to direct dangers,
as heated batteries pose a risk of explosion.
Picosun's patented(*) 'phonon superhighway' nanolaminate coating conducts heat
efficiently away from the device interior, decreasing its temperature even 20 degrees. The
heat is distributed through the casing of the device, along its surface. The coating can
be applied at low temperatures on large batches of items with fast and cost-efficient
processing in Picosun's fully automated production ALD reactors.
"Our aim at Picosun is to utilize the ALD method not only to advance technological
development, but also to improve the usability, safety, and lifetime of technical devices.
Our new, patented nanolaminate coating addresses directly these challenges by solving one
of the key problems in today's electronics - overheating of the components. Many
world-leading electronics manufacturers have already expressed interest towards our
invention. We are excited to present this novel ALD solution to our customers to help them
improve the performance, reliability, and safety of their products," states Juhana Kostamo,
Managing Director of Picosun.
(*)Application no. WO2016146881; "Heat-conductive ALD Coating in an Electrical Device"
Picosun provides the most advanced ALD thin film coating technology to enable the
industrial leap into the future, with turn-key production solutions and unmatched
expertise in the field. Today, PICOSUN(TM) ALD equipment are in daily manufacturing use in
numerous major industries around the world. Picosun is based in Finland, with subsidiaries
in North America, Singapore, Taiwan, China, and Japan, and a world-wide sales and support
network. For more information visit http://www.picosun.com.
