Latest Solid State Lighting Device Unveiled at World's Biggest Nanotechnology Event

The world’s biggest nanotechnology event saw Nanoco unveil a solid state lighting device based on its cadmium free quantum dots CFQDTM and also showcase latest developments in the area of CIGS nano particles. CIGS can be used to print solar cells straight onto substrate and therefore provide a cost effective alternative to conventional silicone based solar cells.

This was the fourth year running that Nanoco Technologies, the world leading quantum dot manufacturer from Manchester, UK has attended the nano tech event held in Tokyo. This year had the largest attendance yet with close to 50,000 visitors.

‘The show is becoming bigger each year ,’ said Torsten Schanze, Operations Manager at Nanoco Technologies, ‘It is a fantastic platform for Nanoco to introduce its latest products as well as meet with its ever growing customer base in Asia, Japan in particular.’

Alongside its latest range of cadmium free quantum dots and the prototype QD solid state lighting device, Nanoco also launched its distribution agreement with Sigma Aldrich, the world’s largest supplier for specialty chemicals. From January 2008, research quantities (less than 1g) of Nanoco’s NanoDot™’s  are available through Sigma Aldrich.
