A couple hits and misses from Jay during webinar.

A couple hits and misses from Jay during webinar.

First miss was his misstatement about the capacity of the flow reactor. 2 million metric tons of dots per year (11:40) should have been 2 metric tons or 2 million grams of dots per year.

The bigger miss was when he used the term "more radioactive" (9:36) when talking about the ability of cadmium QDs to radiate photons. QDs emitting photons when excited by other photons or electrons is not radioactive decay.

Associating the term radioactive with quantum dots is not good. If the general public incorrectly thinks that QDs are radioactive, it is going to very difficult to get the public to accept the idea of embedding QDs in consumer products for track and trace.

To me the biggest, but subtle, hit was his posting of his ID card, which he said had the embedded QD signature in the photo. The ID is hard to see and there was no actual demonstration (illumination) to show that the QDs are actually embedded (maybe Monday), so it is a matter of trust at this point. But it was a first step in actually showing a piece of the puzzle.

33:42:00 The picture that you
33:44:00 see appear, I'm still practicing on
33:46:00 where my thing is, actually ties to
33:49:00 what's called our qdx key card and that
33:52:00 card actually uses quantum dots to
33:53:00 actually make that picture that's on the
33:56:00 card and that signature I was talking
33:57:00 about, is embedded into that facial image
33:59:00 that's actually in the card there in
34:01:00 inking process that creates the
34:04:00 particular card. So you get both a
34:06:00 digital representation and a physical
34:08:00 representation of that card that's
34:10:00 secured by the qdx platform technology.
