Quantum dots are THE nanomaterials success story. Quantum-dot enhancement film is widely used in LEDs for high definition televisions and displays, and are a multi-billion dollar market. However, what we have seen so far is the tip of the iceberg.
The next wave of QD display products will incorporate quantum dots on glass, quantum dot colour filters (QDCF) for microLEDS and displays, perovskite QDs and inkjet printed QDs. These areas are all under development by major electronics manufacturers such as Samsung and LG Display. According to major QD producer Nanosys, electroluminescent quantum-dot (ELQD) displays, which could subsume the OLED market, are also just around the corner. The proliferation of the consumer electronics market will continue to drive demand for these materials and this month also sees product development initiatives in camera sensors and biomedicine.
