Peak Nano

Peak Nano is an advanced materials company developing nanolayered dielectric films for power electronics in electrified transport and energy infrastructure. Founded in 2016 and built on more than a decade of collaborative research with Case Western Reserve University, DARPA and the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, Peak Nano develops NanoPlex™, a proprietary nanolayered materials platform protected by 20+ patents.

Peak Nano’s NanoPlex™ LDF (low dissipation factor) capacitor films are aimed at 800-900 V SiC traction inverters, DC-link capacitors and DC fast-charging systems, where thermal headroom and low losses matter most. The films maintain full capacitance at 135°C without derating, with lower dissipation factor and longer service life than conventional BOPP film, which can allow smaller, lighter power-conversion systems with reduced cooling requirements. Peak Nano also works with capacitor manufacturer Advanced Conversion on DC-link solutions for high-voltage e-mobility, electrified aviation and charging infrastructure.

Engineered and manufactured in the U.S., with supply chains sourced from allied nations, Peak Nano’s films help reduce reliance on foreign suppliers for a critical component of next-generation electrified transport and charging infrastructure.
