Quantum Dot
Bright Solutions From Nano Innovations
Genoptic QDot Tech, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoptic LED Inc., of Calgary, which was founded in 2017 to collaborate with the University of Calgary, Queen’s University and Harvard to research and develop new Nano-optoelectronic technologies to solve conventional technology limitations. Genoptic has since established itself as an advanced R&D firm specializing in the development of its disruptive Nano-optoelectronic technologies, which significantly enhance performance, reliability, and energy efficiency for a wide array of products, solutions for various industries, globally.
Genoptic’s diverse portfolio of nano-technologies provide an array of market ready product applications to deploy to hundreds of industries in the following categories.
POWER CONVERSION
Nano Integrated Circuitry, Power Conversion & Nano Electronic Architecture
PHOTONICS
Nano Indoor & Outdoor Lighting, Display & Solar Quantum Technologies
OPTICS
Nano Meta-surface Photon Reflection & Absorption Technologies
Advanced Quantum Dot Technology using Nano Architecture & Synthesis
QDots are comprised of nanometer-sized semiconductor particles that are 10,000 times smaller in diameter than a human hair, which are man-made nanoscale crystals capable of transporting charge carriers in optoelectronic devices.
UV light sources can be employed to illuminate thin luminescent QDot films to provide powerful light emissions in various tunable color options. These highly efficient QDots can also be used in electrically driven QLED devices for solid-state lighting systems and displays. Additionally, Genoptic’s non-luminescent QDots are designed to absorb the photons from the sunlight and convert them into electricity in solar cells.

Fine-Tuning the Emission Color of QDots
Size-dependent Color Tuning in QDot Nanocrystals
Splitting of energy levels in QDots due to the “quantum confinement effect”.
Semiconductor bandgap increases with decrease in size of the nanocrystal.
Organic ligands are attached to the surface of core/shell QDots to prevent aggregation in solutions and improve the solubility in common solvents.
