Tetrapod Quantum Dots are an advanced nanoscale material that
improves the performance and energy efficiency of very
high-resolution computer, TV and smartphone displays. Quantum
Materials' patent-pending continuous-flow technology produces
uniform, narrow bandwidth tetrapod quantum dots with bright
emission, less aggregation, purer colors (including high-luminous
red) and precise color rendition.
Manufacturers are seeking to "print" tetrapod quantum dots onto
backplane films in liquid crystal displays (LCD) for brighter
images, larger screens and a wider gamut of colors to deliver a new
visual experience in image technology. Thinner, lighter, brighter
and less expensive QD-LED displays, including portable and
flexible devices, will offer almost infinite contrast levels, deep
black levels and high light output with no motion blur or
field-of-view issues.
Stephen B. Squires, Quantum
Materials Corp's Founder and CEO said, "Tetrapod Quantum Dots
ultimately allow for lower display manufacturing costs due to their
superior luminescence and much lower incidence of aggregation. Far
fewer quantum dots are required to achieve the same level of
performance. We believe this performance advantage coupled
with our continuous-flow manufacturing technology will ensure the
lowest quantum dot cost."
David C. Doderer, vice president
of research and development for Quantum Materials wrote the feature
article in the July/August 2013 issue
of iSP Magazine entitled "Quantum Dots: The Future of Displays".
The article details Quantum Materials' ability to reduce the cost
of quantum dot creation while ensuring uniformity in quantities
sufficient to meet high volume display-manufacturing needs.
Nanomarkets' August article "Key Quantum Dots Markets"
highlighted "U.S.-based Quantum Materials Corporation" and
the need for "cost-effective large-scale manufacturing
techniques, which will be the key to the commercialization of
cost-effective and high-performance QDs".
Susan Eustis of Wintergreen
Research stated in their 2013 report, "Quantum Dot and Quantum Dot
Display (QLED) -- Markets Reach $6.4
Billion by 2019" that "Once manufacturers
learn to integrate higher efficiency luminescent quantum dots into
their products, each vendor will need to follow or dramatically
lose market share. This level of change brought by quantum dot and
quantum dot displays (QLED) represents a new paradigm that will
create new industries, products and jobs in science and
industry."
