The agreement is claimed to result resulting the first ever commercial application of quantum dots in electronics. LGIT will be equipped to deliver high color gamut displays to clients like the LG Group among others courtesy of Nanosys’ architected quantum dot technology. The deal that was signed this week will propel the latter company’s process ready components into the display market scene.

“Nanosys’ Quantum Rail technology is a solution ready for integration into backlight sub-assemblies without major tooling changes, making it our first choice for our next generation high color gamut displays,” affirmed Charlie Cheol-Kee Hong, LG Innotek VP and Head of R&D Center.
