SMITHERS APEX: In your opinion, where is the biggest area for advancement in the quantum dots market?
Dr. Nathan Stott: As already mentioned, the biggest area for advancement in the QD market is providing capacity for the growing demand of QD materials, which has been outpacing the current capability of most manufacturers due to their inability to effectively scale production. Furthermore, the ability to design newer QD materials to meet customer demands for varying and specific applications using scalable, highly reproducible processes is of great importance to the industry, and this is an area upon which we are focusing at QMC.
SMITHERS APEX:What presentation are you most looking forward to hearing at the Quantum Dots Forum?
Dr. Nathan Stott: I’m most interested in attending the presentation by Arthur Nozik on “QD Applications to Advanced Concepts for Solar Photon Conversion to Electricity & Solar Fuels.” Professor Nozik is a well-known pioneer and leading expert in the field of QD photovoltaic energy and fundamental research on multi-exciton generation (MEG) in such systems.
SMITHERS APEX:Why should attendees register to hear your presentation?
Dr. Nathan Stott: Most people have heard some variation of the statement that one hour of sunlight reaching the Earth is more than enough to supply an entire year of the world’s global energy needs. Since development of the first solar cells over four decades ago, photovoltaic production costs have come down one thousand times, and production numbers are increasing every year. The problem is that these numbers are just a drop in the bucket of what is necessary to meet global energy demands while minimizing pollution to keep our environment clean. Quantum Materials Corp began eight years ago as Solterra Renewable Technologies, and we will discuss our activities to develop and commercialize quantum dot solar cell photovoltaics as well as offer our views on how gigawatts of annual production can be achieved, offering magnitudes of production and cost advantages while maintaining a cleaner environment.
