Global Market for Quantum Dot Technologies to Reach $670 Million by 2015
Summary
In addition to more economic production processes, it is also expected - based on the recent technical and business literature - that improved reaction methods, green chemistry, and the use of less toxic semiconductor or other nanocrystalline QD materials, will emerge.These include, for example, biology and biomedicine; computing and memory; electronics and displays; optoelectronic devices such as LEDs, lighting, and lasers; optical components used in telecommunications; and security applications such as covert identification tagging or biowarfare detection sensors.In addition to more economic production processes, it is also expected - based on the recent technical and business literature - that improved reaction methods, green chemistry, and the use of less toxic semiconductor or other nanocrystalline QD materials, will emerge.Current and future applications of QDs impact a broad range of industrial markets.These include, for example, biology and biomedicine; computing and memory; electronics and displays; optoelectronic devices such as LEDs, lighting, and lasers; optical components used in telecommunications; and security applications such as covert identification tagging or biowarfare detection sensors.Specific QDbased products include lasers, sensors, Flash memory, lighting and displays, secondand third-generation solar panels, security deterrents, and several enhancements to portable devices.Details of the new report, table of contents and ordering information can be found on Electronics.ca Publications web site.
