Once thought of as a scientific curiosity, quantum dots (QDs) are revolutionizing multi-billion-dollar imaging and sensing markets worldwide.
Every year, more applications for these nanoscale semiconductors are coming to light. Well suited for everything from imaging to photovoltaics, QDs have contributed to an explosion of growth for the machine vision sector, with analysts predicting that the market for these materials could reach $360 million by 2027.
As rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and camera systems fuel further demand for short-wave infrared (SWIR) sensitivity, QD technology is advancing at pace.
Nanoco Group PLC (LON:NANO) leads the world in the research, development and large-scale manufacture of heavy metal-free nanomaterials for use in displays, lighting, vertical farming, solar energy and bio-imaging.
