UK-based OTFT-developer SmartKem and QD pioneer Nanosys announced a joint-development project to work on low-cost printed QD displays, that will combine SmartKem's printed organic TFT with Nanosys' quantum dots emitter platform.
Nanosys now refers to its emissive (electroluminescent) QD technology as nanoLED. Both technology platforms, the OTFT backplane and the NanoLED frontplane are solution-based, which could indeed result in a low-cost production process.
The co-development agreement also covers the development of OTFT-based microLED displays.
