Cadmium-Free Quantum Dots for Enhanced Color Displays (Printed Electronics Europe 2015)

Nanoco's quantum dots are being readily adopted into next generation products in a variety of applications, most notably LCD displays, solid state lighting, photovoltaics, and biological imaging. When used in displays they provide dramatically improved color performance, an increasingly important feature for consumers. Unlike conventional phosphors, quantum dots offer the advantage of tunable, narrow band emission and are readily integrated into existing LCD architectures. Furthermore, Nanoco's quantum dots do not contain cadmium or any other heavy metals, offering customers a sustainable solution. This presentation will provide an overview of Nanoco's quantum dot technology and how it delivers enhanced color in display products.

Nanoco (AIM: NANO) is a world leader in the development and production of cadmium-free quantum dots and other nano-materials for use in multiple applications including LCD displays, lighting, solar cells and bio-imaging. In the display market, it has an exclusive manufacturing and marketing licensing agreement with The Dow Chemical Company. Nanoco was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in Manchester, UK. It has production facilities in Runcorn, UK, and a US subsidiary, Nanoco Inc, based in Concord, MA. Nanoco also has business development offices in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Its technology is protected worldwide by a large and growing patent estate. For further information please visit: www.nanocogroup.com.
