Nanosys Plans ‘Great Demos’ at CES of Newly Patented QD Color Conversion Technology
The newest Nanosys patent on fashioning a quantum-dot-based color conversion layer in display devices (see 1811130059) “covers the basics” of the company’s QD color conversion (QDCC) technology and “is applicable to all display types,” Jeff Yurek, director-marketing and investor relations,…

Next-generation QDCC “brings the benefits” of QD technology to “new architectures” like OLED and microLED displays, he said. Using QDCC, QDs “move out of the backlight to the front of the screen, replacing lossy color filters for improved image quality, lower cost and simplified manufacturing,” he said. QDCC can be inkjet-printed or patterned “using standard photolithography techniques in use today for color filter manufacturing,” he said. QDCC materials in the Nanosys arsenal are what the company calls “air-processable,” he said. “This means the QDCC layer can be made in ambient conditions,” with no vacuum required, unlike OLED, he said. Nanosys “can’t announce any timelines for specific commercial products on this technology but expect to see some great demos at CES,” said Yurek.
