Poland-based QNA Technology, a quantum dots developer and producer, raised $4 million in its latest financing round,and the company is now preparing to apply for a listing at the Polish ASO NewConnect stock exchange for early stage companies.

QNA was established in 2016, and is focused on blue light (400-490 nm) emitting, heavy metal-free quantum dots. The company optimizes its QDs for two applications: electroluminescence display devices (QD-EL) and for microLED displays devices based on UV microLEDs.

China-based Red Magic announced a new gaming monitor, based on a 49-inch QD-OLED panel (produced by Samsung Display). The Magic Realm full specification is a 49" 240Hz 5120x1440 curved (1800R) display, and it offers FREE-SNYC and G-SYNC compatibility and built-in 5W speakers.-

Red Magic did not yet reveal the price or release date of its QD-OLED Monitor.

In January 2023, Samsung unveiled the Odyssey OLED G9, featuring a 49-inch 5120x1440 240Hz 0.03 ms GtG response time ultra-wide QD-OLED panel.

Samsung now officially started accepting pre-orders for the new monitor, pricing it at $2,199. Samsung will start shipping the monitor on June 25.

Canon announced that it has developed new perovskite quantum-dot inks for use in next-generation displays, with improved durability and potential for application in high-image-quality displays.

Canon's new perovskite quantum-dot inks are cadmium free, and thanks for Canon's proprietary technologies, the QDs feature protective shell that enables high lifetime and efficiency. Canon's QDs are about 20% more efficient in light converstion compared to standard QDs, and cover 94.4% of the BT.2020 color gamut - higher than regular InP quantum-dot inks (that usually cover around 88% of the same color gamut).

China-based BOE has demonstrated a new 4.7" AMQLED display prototype, a self-emissive QD based panel.

The panel offers a resolution of 1440x2560 (650 PPI), a color gamut of 85% BT2020 and a high contrast ratio (rated at 10,000,000:1).

Samsung Display demonstrated its latest QD-OLED displays, in TV format (77-inch) and also in monitor formats. SDC's QD-OLED panel display won the SID Display of the Year award, and is indeed an impressive display. The company's latest QD-OLED panels offer new OLED materials, new optimized algorithms, and a maximum brightness of over 2,000 nits.

Besides the 77-inch TV, Samsung also showed 34-inch QD-OLED monitors, and 49-inch QD-OLED monitors with a ultra-wide aspect ratio (32:9).

Researchers from Samsung Display, led by Changhee Lee, developed an all-inkjet-printed 12.4" full color 182 PPI EL-QD display, that offers improved performance.

The researchers say that by controlling carrier transport properties and charge balance through ligand exchange in QDs and ZnMgO surface, they were able to create this display that has a potential for low cost and material-consumption-efficient display manufacturing. The researchers will disclose the paper at SID Displayweek 2023 next week.
