Opportunities for Quantum Dots in Main Stream Adop
Post# of 22456
An interview with Jeff Yurek, Product Marketing Manager at Nanosys, featuring discussions on growth opportunities, QDEF, and a three year market forecast
1. In your opinion, what are the major areas of opportunities for Quantum Dots technologies and is there something that would need to be developed technology wise to make the leap into full main stream adoption?
I think we are right there actually in terms of mainstream adoption. Recent product launches by major consumer electronics manufacturers have really helped to prove that Quantum Dots are ready. It should be clear now, not just in performance and reliability but scale and cost, that QDs are mainstream. It's actually pretty incredible to think that any consumer can walk into a store and buy a tablet for about 200 bucks with state-of-the-art nanotechnology in the display. So I think the question is not when or how but now that we're here, where can we take this technology? How do we make the next leap in display value- can we double the brightness, meet the rec.2020 color gamut spec, etc?
Photo-luminescent display backlights are really just the beginning for Quantum Dots, there are many other approaches and applications that are going to make this technology relevant for many years to come. This is actually why I'm looking forward to participating in this conference so much, I expect to hear a lot of great ideas from across the whole industry......
