Start up to build prototype LED lighting plant in UK

Cambridge Nanotherm is to build its first prototype manufacturing plant in the UK, following a £250,000 grant from the Technology Strategy Board (TSB).

The Suffolk based start up has developed and patented a nanoceramic-aluminum substrate for thermal management of electronics, which it says offers the potential for major cost reductions and environmental benefits in electronics manufacturing.

Nanotherm substrate technology uses a proprietary nano-ceramic coating process to create a dielectric layer directly on to the surface of an aluminium substrate.

The nano-ceramic dielectric layer is between two and 10 times thinner than its competitors and is said to achieve a thermal resistance of 0.014Ccm2/W. It also has a dielectric thermal conductivity of 7W/mK, which is two to three times higher than conventional metal back printed circuit board dielectric materials.

Pavel Shashkov, ceo and founder of Cambridge Nanotherm said: "The Nanotherm technology has the potential to change the way in which led light fixtures and power electronic substrates are designed and manufactured because it delivers better thermal performance, lower overall cost, smaller footprint and flexible design.

"This new facility is a major next step in the development of our patented technology and of the Cambridge Nanotherm business." (By New Electronics)
