As a phosphor replacement in flat panel displays, PQDs have the potential to provide industry best color gamut picture qualities due to their extremely narrow emission wavelength profile. For comparison, todays industry leading low cadmium or cadmium free QLED displays can only deliver roughly an 80% Rec 2020 coverage while PQDs have the ability to deliver roughly a 98% Rec 2020 coverage (with properties that include: PLQY>95%, FWHM <25 nm and adjustable peak position). As we are approaching the final stage of bringing to market our first commercial level red-green QD infused film component, we see tremendous potential in advancing the performance level of our QD based film components even further with the incorporation of PQD’s to bring the color gamut up to nearly 100% of the new color standard Rec 2020 coverage, which will set a new standard in flat panel display color.
We have innovated a disruptive quantum dot display technology that achieves an industry-leading 95% Rec 2020 color gamut coverage. We have demonstrated our 100% cadmium-free 55 inch QDX™ display to selected customers who have shown strong interest in that display technology which is achieved by utilizing the Company's proprietary quantum dot enhanced film while eliminating the costly barrier film. We are working with display manufacturers, film manufacturers and chemical companies to bring this next-generation technology to market as a superior and lower cost QD-based display solution. In addition, incorporating QDX quantum dot infused films into LCD displays can materially increase color gamut levels, improves viewing angles, increases display brightness levels and lower production cost. One of the most efficient ways to achieve a wide color gamut LCD display is with narrow-band red and green quantum dots deposited directly on an optical film. This film is then backlit using blue phosphor LEDs. We have manufactured red & green quantum dots with extremely narrow FWHM (full width half max) of 16 & 34 nanometers respectively, these infinitesimally small semiconductors with precise emission wavelengths possess uncharacteristically high stability.

We have received very encouraging indications of interest from OEM electronics manufacturers that are looking to increase the color rendering capabilities of their displays without adding cadmium and upon reaching this milestone, we believe we are now in a position to partner to commercialize this technology in order to get our QD materials into consumer displays. With the advent of this low cost, high performance offering, we believe we can materially disrupt the industry and create a market condition wherein QD enhanced technology can become a de-facto standard in consumer displays. In addition to QMC's film based solution for maximizing color gamut in LCD displays, the Company is continuing to optimize it's direct phosphor design variant which places the quantum dot materials directly on to the surface of the LED, further improving color rendering performance and lowering cost. The Company expects to be in a position to announce a working display with this variant of QD design in the near future, giving display OEM's an additional low cost avenue for increasing color gamut without the use of cadmium.
Display manufacturers continue to court us and our cadmium free quantum dot technologies. As mentioned in our 2019 highlights, our achievement in the industry's first 100% cadmium free RoHS compliant, quantum dot LCD display film that exceeds 95% Rec 2020 color gamut created strong interest in multiple display OEMs who inquire further testing of the technology which has the potential to license our capabilities. We remain active in our effort to license our display technologies to one or more significant display industry companies.
Possibly something exciting is coming in this year's Display Week - TV OEMs exhibiting display units with QDX trademark - QMC's QDEF with brilliant sunlight brightness, vivid colors and 95% Rec2020 color gamut coverage.
