IEEE makes the case for quantum dots as the next darling of display manufacturers

NEW YORK—A new batch of acronyms are being used to describe the latest models of TVs that are dazzling and perplexing consumers. QD, QUHD, SUHD and ULED are quantum-dot technology that are currently available for TVs and our making their move to be the future of TVs, not the previously believed-successor OLED. IEEE takes a look at what is special about this new quantum-dot technology and how it is going to make the promised future of televisions finally a reality.

Will develop quantum dot-based display technologies.

Tetrapod quantum dots ultimately allow for lower display manufacturing costs due to their superior luminescence and much lower incidence of aggregation.

News

The patent-pending continuous-flow technology produces uniform, narrow bandwidth tetrapod quantum dots with bright emission, less aggregation, purer colors (including high-luminous red) and precise color rendition.

Regulatory and Standards

TV as we know it doesn’t cover the same color range as the human eye. LG is taking a step closer to display technology that covers more of it

Regulatory and Standards

If this year’s Consumer Electronics Show is any indication, quantum dotswill soon be as ubiquitous as LED, LCD CFL, CD ROM and countless other technologies that have moved directly out of the lab into big box stores.
