Publisher's Synopsis
"The first quantum dot display products were developed in the search for a technology that could improve the color performance of LCDs to compete against the emerging OLED technology. In 2013, the same year that the OLED smartphone display reached 441 ppi and the first 55" OLED TVs were launched, Sony and QD Vision commercialized the first QD LCD TVs with "Color IQ" technology, marking the beginning of the commercialization of QD displays. That same year, 3M and Nanosys introduced the first Quantum Dot Enhanced Film (QDEF) in Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch model. The QDEF approach, which later became industry standard, integrates a QD film with a blue light emitting diode (LED) backlight, achieving vibrant, saturated colors even at high luminance. In 2022, the first two TVs powered by QD-OLED panels were realized: the Sony A95K OLED and the Samsung S95B OLED. These panels replaced low-efficient color filters with QDs, improving OLED ef
