Thin Film Electronics ASA ( : ) is a Norwegian printed electronics company, headquartered in Oslo with its main R&D offices in Linköping, Sweden and San Jose, California, United States. Thin Film Electronics ASA ("Thinfilm") maintains an NFC Innovation Center at its San Jose, California location, and also has sales offices in San Francisco, Scandinavia, United Kingdom, Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Thinfilm produces rewriteable non-volatile memories based on ferroelectric polymers using roll-to-roll printing and labels based on Near Field Communication (NFC) technology.
Thinfilm offers several products that leverage printed electronics technology, including NFC SpeedTap(tm), NFC OpenSense(tm), EAS (electronic article surveillance) tags, and temperature-sensing smart labels. In February 2017, Thinfilm launched its CNECT(tm) Software Portal, a multi-tenant cloud-based platform that integrates with its NFC SpeedTap and OpenSense tags.
Thinfilm has been developing memories based on polymer materials since 1994; first as part of Opticom ASA and then as an independent company. For the first ten years, the focus was on hybrid memory devices with polymer-based memory and silicon-based control circuitry, as developed jointly with Intel. From 2006, Thinfilm has concentrated its efforts on printed electronics.
Thinfilm successfully demonstrated roll-to-roll printed organic memory in 2009, and was awarded IDTechEx Technical Development Manufacturing Award the same year.
