After that, TCL, Philips, BOE, Hisense and Konka more than 30 years, and lots of applications adopting QDs applied the same technology for their TV and monitor have been proposed. Especially, wide color gamut displays products. Nanosys has been very active in commercializing using QDs as active light emitting materials have drawn QD-film through the joint development with film-fabricating much attention. And, the QD-based consumer displays such companies such as 3M, LMS, Hitachi, and Nitto Denko. as LED TVs, tablets, and special monitors are now on the Starting from Amazon’s Kindle fire tablet, QD color market. They provide best color gamut, reasonable power converting film, which is called as QDEF, was adopted in the ASUS’s laptop and monitor, and TVs of Hisense, TCL, Vizio, efficiency, and affordable price showing superior competitive AUO. In China, Najing technology started to provide QDs to edge to OLED technology. However, still there are issues film makers such as Sangbo and Poly-OE, and work with TCL and argues using Cadmium containing materials in practical and Hisense to produce TVs. Nanoco is one of the pioneer consumer devices. In spite of the European RoHS companies to have developed the Cd-free QDs from the Exemptions, we need to be aware the environmental risk of beginning, and they have collaborated with Dow chemical and producing large quantity of Cd-containing materials and Merck for the mass-production.

  • 8 Chemistry Title of Case Study
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: Imperial College London Unit of Assessment: 8 Chemistry Title of case study: C6 - Nanoco: a successful quantum dot nanotechnology company 1. Summary of the impact (indicative maximum 100 words) The research on the use of single source precursors in quantum dot synthesis undertaken by Professor Paul O’Brien in the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College between 1994 and 1999 resulted in papers and a patent which led to the formation of Nanoco Group PLC, currently a world-leader in the supply of quantum dots (QDs). Quantum dots have applications in backlighting for LCD displays, LED general lighting and thin film solar cells. Nanoco was listed on AIM on the London Stock Exchange in 2009 and by January 2013 Nanoco employed 78 people, had annual revenue of £3 million, and had signed agreements with several major companies in the US and Japan including Dow Chemical, Osram and Tokyo Electron. 2. Underpinning research (indicative maximum 500 words) The underpinning research on single source precursors, the key technology on which the company Nanoco Group PLC was based, was developed at Imperial College London by Professor Paul O’Brien during the period 1994 -1999. Specifically, Tito Trindade carried out the key seminal work on the use of group 2 and group 4 metal diselenocarbamates and dithiocarbamates as precursors for the organometallic synthesis of quantum dots [1,2]. Prior to this work, the only published and available precursor system for the preparation of high quality semiconductor nanoparticles were metal alkyls, silylated chalcogens and phosphorus-chalcogen compounds. This limited the synthesis of quantum dots to expert organometallic chemistry laboratories, and the yield of the reactions using these precursors was often extremely low.

Alsolamy May 2013 © 2013 Samar M. Alsolamy. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Study of Coupling in InGaAs Quantum Rings Grown by Droplet Epitaxy by SAMAR M. ALSOLAMY has been approved for the Department of Physics and Astronomy and the College of Arts and Sciences by Eric A. Stinaff Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT ALSOLAMY, SAMAR, M., M.S., May 2013, Physics and Astronomy The Study of Coupling in InGaAs Quantum Rings Grown by Droplet Epitaxy Director ofThesis: Eric A. Stinaff The use of metal droplet epitaxy may provide a novel method of growing laterally coupled nanostructures. We will present optical studies of InAs/GaAs nanostructures which result in twin quantum dots (QD) formed on a single quantum ring (QR). Previous studies have investigated the coupling between vertically grown quantum dot pairs. In this thesis, we have used photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) to examine the possibility of energy transfer and coupling between quantum dot pairs in a single InGaAs quantum ring grown by droplet epitaxy. Power dependent photoluminescence spectra reveal a few peaks at low power, which are identified with emission from the ground state of the individual dots. As the power is increased we observe multi-exciton and excited state emission. We then perform PLE, tuning the excitation laser energy continuously from the high energy ring emission down to the individual dot states.

  • Recent Developments in Applications of Quantum-Dot Based Light
    DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.69177 Provisional chapter Chapter 2 Recent Developments in Applications of Quantum-Dot RecentBased Light-Emitting Developments Diodes in Applications of Quantum-Dot Based Light-Emitting Diodes Anca Armăşelu Anca Armăşelu Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.69177 Abstract Quantum dot-based light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs) represent a form of light-­emitting technology and are regarded like a next generation of display technology after the organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) display. QD-LEDs are different from liquid ­crystal displays (LCDs), OLEDs, and plasma displays due to the fact that QD-LEDs ­present an ideal blend of high brightness, efficiency with long lifetime, flexibility, and low-­processing cost of organic LEDs. So, QD-LEDs show theoretical performance ­limits which surpass all other display technologies. The goal of this chapter is, firstly, to ­provide a historical prospective study of QD-LEDs applications in display and lighting ­technologies, secondly, to present the most recent improvements in this field, and finally, to discuss about some current directions in QD-LEDs research that concentrate on the realization of the next-generation displays and high-quality lighting with superior color gamut, higher efficiency, and high color rendering index. Keywords: quantum dots, quantum dot-based light-emitting diodes, display technology, lighting technology 1. Introduction Quantum dots (QDs) have attracted interest in the fields of optical applications such as quan- tum computing, biological, and chemical applications. In contradistinction to the traditional fluorophores, QDs have unique optical and electronic features, which comprise high quantum yields, high molar extinction coefficients, large effec- tive Stokes shifts [1, 2], broad excitation profiles, narrow/symmetric emission spectra, high resistance to reactive oxygen-mediated photobleaching [2, 3], and are against metabolic deg- radation [4, 5].

  • Response to Rohs Exemption Application N 2013-2
    Response to RoHS Exemption Application No 2013-2 Nanoco is a well-established UK-based developer and manufacturer of CFQD™ cadmium-free quantum dots, free of cadmium and other toxic heavy metals, which can be used in many applications including display screens, lighting, solar cells and biological imaging. Dow Electronic Materials, a division of The Dow Chemical Company, is a well-known supplier of specialty chemical products and applications into the electrical and electronic manufacturing industry for over 50 years. In January 2013, Dow Electronic Materials entered into a global licensing agreement with Nanoco to manufacture, market and sell CFQD™ cadmium-free quantum dots. Small-scale manufacture is currently undertaken in the UK and larger scale manufacture is scheduled to be online by mid-2014. A pilot launch of the first TVs using CFQD™ cadmium-free quantum dots is planned for the first half of 2014, with full commercial production expected within the following 12 months. We would like to jointly submit the following response to the public consultation on this exemption application. Prior to responding in detail to the issued list of questions, we include a summary of our understanding of the application’s key issues. We also include an overview of the application of quantum dot technology into both displays and solid-state lighting devices. 1. Exemption Justification: Key Issues i. There is no viable cadmium-free quantum dot alternative available or likely for at least 5 years We shall show that Nanoco’s CFQD™ cadmium-free quantum dots are both available and viable. Their optical emission performance currently meets the requirements for commercial LCD screens, in terms of enhanced screen colour range and lifetime (at least 30,000 hours).
