Introduction

Quantum Dot (QD) technology is attracting attention in the display industry due to various issues such as utilizing QD films, combining mini LEDs and QD, commercializing Cd-free QD, developing Perovskite QD, and research and development for QD-LED next-generation displays. These developments have led to improved lifespan and stability, development of eco-friendly materials, high efficiency and low cost, application of ultra-high resolution displays, and expansion of applications, brightening the future of the display industry.
QD technology is leading the premium TV market by significantly enhancing the image quality of LCD TVs and combining them with mini LED technology. QD-LED in light-emitting devices has been developed for commercialization in recent years. QD-LED is an important step in competing with OLEDs, as it announced full-color QD-LED display prototypes in Korea, China, and Japan.

Display Application Technology Development Trend of Quantum Dot Report, published by UBI Research, covers the following:
1. Apply color conversion technology to the display
2. Application of color conversion technology in pixels to microdisplay
3. Device Structure and Process Development Trends of QD-LEDs
4. Trends in QD-LED Display Development

One particularly promising aspect of Quantum Dot technology is the color conversion device, with Perovskite-based QD standing out due to its high light efficiency and narrow light emission spectrum. Ongoing research is exploring various approaches to enhance the stability of Perovskite QD, a technology that is expected to significantly improve the color reproduction rate of 4K and 8K ultra-high resolution displays in the near future.
The development of Cd-free QD is gaining momentum, driven by environmental and health concerns. Notably, indium oxide (InP)–based QD has been successfully commercialized and applied to Samsung’s latest QLED TVs and QD OLED TVs. This development is significant as it demonstrates that Cd-free QD can match the performance of existing Cd-based QDs while offering the added advantage of being eco-friendly.
