Great article on QD Lasers and Prof Aragawa
I met and heard him speak a few years ago at a conference.
I liked the quote from him in the article - it reminded me of Squires
In 1982, Arakawa, who had just been appointed assistant professor, published a paper entitled “Multidimensional quantum well laser and temperature dependence of its threshold current” in collaboration with then-Assistant Professor Hiroyuki Sakaki. (Sakaki is now professor emeritus at the University of Tokyo and president of the Toyota Technological Institute.) This paper was the starting point for a global wave of quantum dot research over the next 35 years.
Yasuhiko Arakawa, the engineering scientist
For Arakawa, designing a plan on how to create value for society is a concern that ranks with the importance of basic research, exhorting his students to “think like an engineer” and to “become a scientist with the mindset of an engineer.”
Squires is an engineer, an entrepreneur, and made himself a scientist.
================
One thing about the laser business - it is not colloidal QD, but Quantum Well. If they need a high temperature, long lasting, very bright QD, we have it but they need just one QD or a few per laser. The only way to be profitable would be to own the laser company or at least share in the value created.
