  "account": "Samsung Electro-Mechanics, the electronic components unit of Samsung Electronics, has secured a $215.8 million contract to supply multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) for artificial intelligence (AI) servers to an unnamed global company. The agreement, which spans from January to December 2027, marks Samsung Electro-Mechanics' sixth long-term supply deal announced this year. The company has signed a total of 3.9 trillion won worth of long-term supply agreements this year, encompassing silicon capacitors, MLCCs, and inductors for AI servers. MLCCs, crucial electronic components used to regulate and stabilize electrical current in circuits, find extensive use in smartphones, personal computers, automotive electronics, and AI servers. These MLCCs designed for AI servers necessitate more sophisticated manufacturing technology compared to those utilized in mobile devices. According to projections by Goldman Sachs, the global AI server MLCC market is anticipated to experience an annual average growth rate of approximately 34 percent.",
