food for thought. Steve Squires has 75 contacts. If 3-4% were new ventures, then one could reasonably expect to find 2 - 3 business connections. LG (electronic displays) is one area that deserves more research, SA another, and.......who knows?
Life is Good
Good post and style.
Think you're right.
Also shows how one can hide in plain sight.
It takes a particular pov to see it, but that pov helps clarify everything else.
The exclusive on roll-to-roll printing is a key to mass production.
Don't know how many ways and in how many products it can be used in.
Think if it can be built and stacked, it can be broken down to usable components.
Like the cooperation and synergy.
GLTA
Most excellent posts this morning. Kudos and Thanks to each, (as well as Dr. Bob).
Leenico found an interesting discussion and pov.
Dock has been very helpful breaking things down and new input.
Hawk shares, finds, and weaves new information.
SX takes the time to say thanks to others and adds info.
Dr. Bob has been and continues to be a friend to the Board(s)
Steve Squires is also and continues to drive QTMM through competitive times to new horizons according to the vision he first expressed.
The cooperation between the boards has improved.
We've looked from different POV and have a more comprehensive picture........Life is Good
The exclusive on the roll-to-roll printing seems to indicate that our process and product may be a fundamental building block in the quantum field.
Roll-to-Roll is a key to mass production and the world is hungry.
The future ahead looks Bright in the Quantum Sphere.
Thanks to you and Dr. Bob.........Life is Good
Really good read with interesting pov

quantum dot solar concentrator
Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSCs) are non-imaging concentrators which do not require solar tracking and concentrate both direct and diffuse light. Currently developed LSCs consist of a flat polymer plate doped with a luminescent dye (or other luminescent species). As incident light passes through the plate, photons are absorbed by the dye and subsequently re-emitted isotropically. The refractive index of the plate is larger than that of the surrounding air, resulting in much of the re-emitted light being trapped and transmitted to one edge, where a photovoltaic (PV) cell is attached. A Quantum Dot Solar Concentrator (QDSC) is an LSC, with the luminescent dye replaced with Quantum Dots (QDs).
A ray-trace model has been implemented in MATLAB which allows the optimum size of the concentrator to be determined, for any given set of system parameters. Parameters which can be varied in the model include the QD absorption and emission spectra and the matrix material attenuation spectra, all of which can be obtained from lab measurements. The model predictions show very good agreement with measured output from fabricated devices and excellent agreement with other modelling techniques used for LSCs.

looks like there may be some more words for the list
this was in response to leenico's question in regards to Hawks list
not a bad idea, hope you take the lead in that direction.
since knowledge crisscrosses back and forth, I think our path will cross from time to time.
I believe that QTMM technology is like a foundational building block. If that is the case, we may find our products in any of the other links like the GCC, EU-GCC, EECA, etc. and or associated companies.
If we find something in one link, the others are also most likely competing. Seems the first to get the patents approved, get the associated benefits. The RI and of course the host country also get benefits, (jobs, economically, ability to attract other scientists, and etc.). The IO gets another step closer to connecting the links into a circle as in completing world infrastructure.
As we tend to be a basic block provider, it's all good. I believe we are on the cusp of or already in prototypes product of some kind. The problem is QDs can be in just about everything. I hope to uncover that fact by looking at some of the leading edge research,(regardless of which link).
In the process of doing that, I hope to be see the forest to get a better grasp of how our QTMM tree fits into the landscape.
That said perhaps these links will help

looking forward to your post(s) and thoughts
regardless of the information, Hawk, Dock and others will help grind it up and we'll make as much sense out of it as we can.
thing is one person can only look at and find but so much. If I've found anything pertinent that others haven't, it proves the case in point.
I look at things a little slanted. I think we all do.
I tossed some things out there as a rough draft for a parameter. It's up to the members to help define it or work with what's there. Hawk's list fits within that parameter. The more we help,
the better our results.
of course on this board, it'll be the ones willing to

Thanks pdgy. You do good work. Looks like another one bites the dust.
Not suppose to post about other stocks, but you can track thread through name and posts. Think the other stock I'm in is about ready to emerge (my best guess is by 1st qtr of coming year, but could be as late as 8.31.11)
maybe things will be good enough I can write this one off.
gltu
understood, can use all the help we can get.
also of interest would be a list of all the things MW and GJ have worked on as a possible area of further research. may be wrong, but think it likely QTMM will be able to produce it. could tie into factual information we're looking.
personally, will be looking into international orgs.,acronyms,and people of interest in conjunction with dates
all help is duly appreciated.
good to see other pov emerging.
SX helping to set up a direction to look in
through his actions, helping to build cooperation and
exchange of information between boards,(on a mini-scale, think
of KAUST and universities)
Dock thinking out loud about another avenue, also establishing
establishing himself as someone that could be helpful
interpreting data. Don't know about most on this board, but
10 years is longer than I've been in stocks.
His help will be duly appreciated.
seems we have some new leaders emerging. am looking forward to future posts from their pov. hope to hear from others as well.
for myself, am thinking about more research alone the line of international organization(s) acronyms. seems they build the infrastructure, set the tone and direction the RIs follow as well having a lot of the money.
thxs folks
Don't know, got back late today. Don't think they should be unless very ill mannered, (like cussing, bashing or totally off topic). I am asking that this view be upheld.
I would rather have the input so we can figure out how to go forward.
Everyone here has a point of view. The more people that express their their pov, the more complete the picture.
That's part of what I was getting at when talking about researching QTMM from different angles. I suspect Dave was looking from a technological view, while I was looking from an organizational pov, yet we both arrived at the same destination.
That also opens a lot of avenues for people to be able to contribute research that may not know the science well. We can all bird dog organizations and the people involved. Our paths will still cross and just maybe we'll discover something new.
Acronyms are also good places to search, (Dave had some good terminology to use on one of his posts).
Thought if we had someone that could run down all the things M.Wong and G. Jabbour worked on, (that pertains to QDs) and one or more on each of the others would be nice. We could search more effectively and correlate the information to get a comprehensive picture.
We would all have an opportunity to help solve the questions that come up.
I think QTMM will be successful, but this is a very good time to create a team and infrastructure for future endeavors.
thxs for your concerns and input
I look forward to the thoughts of each, it's your board. This board is the first one I've ever posted on. I'm trying to do right, but I also need your input.
DDhawk has some interesting info on #551 and #581
regardless of past disagreements, there is cooperation between the boards.
To the silent ones out there, if you like the work and research being done: then please take the time to acknowledge and thank the ones that do it. Some put in many hours trying to help this board be a little better. A little praise and more confidence in the company is the only payment they get. Praise helps inspire them to greater effort and is a small price to give for better results.
Dock has put himself out there and the silence is deafening.
Personally, I'd rather work with one or two who try, rather than a bunch who may know more and have nothing to contribute.
The people in this stock tend to be investors and not players.
I'm looking to be a part of a team that helps uncover new facts and connections to QTMM. I also hope that those that work together now, will be able to work together on other stock in the future.
If any of you feel more qualified or knowledgeable, (hope you are), then please step up and I will be as supportive of you as I asked others to be of me.
Dock, got in late today. Will email you soon, of course everyone knows what I'll be talking about.
Leenico, any input or suggestions?
GLTA
past disagreements need to be left behind, bottom line no participation, no board.
All input welcome
think you're on the right track. regardless of who bought the shares, business is business.
whoever did it still looks to make money on the investment.
Think it's a very Bright light and shines as much illumination as a PR.
What a way to give a heads up, vote of confidence, raise capital, and eventually make a profit.
humble awe and appreciate the genuis
LOL love the humor
can see you've got the spirit
Just got back in from out of state. Didn't have time to respond before I left for GA.
Thanks for the thumbs up on #540 and looking forward to your findings.
If it enough of us work together on different aspects we should get a more complete picture and uncover some hidden gems.
GLTA
like the visual descriptions and analogies.
You put your best foot forward.
no one can ask for more than your honesty.
That kind of light Shines in the Quantum Sphere
Thanks
I agree with adding your point of view and how it relates, however with scientific data some may not know what we're looking at, as in how it connects to QTMM and the quantum field in general, that's why I was asking for help in explaining.
I do believe in trying to get the best qualified to do that, (I don't believe that's me).
I have been wondering about how they're proposing to slice the Quantum pie and how QTMM is connected to that.
Have been trying to look at things differently. Think I was at a place where I couldn't see the forest due to the big QTMM tree in front of me. Started looking at an aerial (world) view to see if I could see how it relates to the landscape.
It seems that technological data,scientists, RIs (research infrastructures), and international organizations are all working on the same basic objectives from different points of view. When they converge, those meetings are points of illumination.
Points of illumination also have a lot of acronyms in our field of interest.
Tracking some of the above is how I ended up at the same point DDhawk was at.
Since different aspects of the same theme intersect, it seems if we
1. define pertinent areas of research
2. find the best brain(s) to sift, help explain, and interpret
3. get others to help bird dog information
4. teams could be formed for research, (if enough willing)
we just might be more effective and find the proof and facts we're looking for
Thanks for your input and POV
like the highlighted pertinent data
seems like you've been at this quite a while and have a solid grasp of what's going on. that post was a fun and entertaining read. wonder if you would mind thinking out loud a little more often.
folks thinking out loud or talking about what you know(or don't know) leaves one vulnerable. some may fear making a mistake, but if the bottom line is after a correction you have a better understanding. You still gained. You gain more from those that know more.
thank the lord for those that have the courage, patience and fortitude to be willing to teach us that don't know as much.
Dock, your email address would be appreciated.
folks the reason I ask for an email address is so I can contact people to see if we can build better infrastructure for this board. any that would feel so inclined, your information would also be apreciated.

just from these comments one can get insight into the real agenda.

haven't dug real deep, but paths (of scientists and organizations) crisscross all over the place. The tech associated with these organizations are going global.

I suspect for every study M. Wong and G. Jabbour do QTMM can produce via plant and Flowid.
btw DDhawk posted an interesting tidbit today about $8 a share.
think the projections for this stock look good, but I will say this, without voices this board will fade away. no one can replace PV, but we can move forward or not. I tend to be more intuitive than technical. I try to find facts, but I also jump between. If you like my style or not, I need feedback, (we all do). If we have people that understand the scientific data, we need their help in simplifying the data.
We need better organization and cooperation. I have a few ideas, but nothing happens without you. We have 61 marks, but need people willing to help.
My personal thanks to Dock, SX, and all those who have contributed in the past. Kudos to you
your response public or private would be appreciated
Good find. You're on a roll, double 8's hmm...
it takes the time it takes.
I do know that the GCC, EU-GCC, and the EECA infrastructure as well as international collaboration seem to be coming together and there seems to be a lot more info about CdSe.
Given the lag time of information, I would think something would be forth coming by the end of the 1st quarter or 8.31.11 at the latest.
btw has anyone seen or heard anything about the pilot plant?
you're the life of the party.
Don't hesitate to think out loud and break stuff down for newbies

anyone want to do a little DD and see what you can find pertinent to QTMM? sorry Hawk, this is probably worse than last time, but it goes good with chips. However I just browsed a little.

E8.76
Scaling of Transport Properties in Lateral Nanostructured Organic Solar Cells. Tricia Youngbull1,2, Madhusudan Singh2,3, Samson A. Jenekhe4,5, Ghassan E. Jabbour2,6 and Christine K. Luscombe1; 1Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington; 2School of Mechanical, Aerospace, Chemical and Materials Engineering, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona; 3Flexible Display Center at Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona; 4Department of Chemistry, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington; 5Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington; 6Solar and Alternative Energy Research Center, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Thuwal, Saudi Arabia.
In organic bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells, charge carriers must have a sufficient mobility and a clear charge conduction pathway to drift through the BHJ network structure to the electrodes before they recombine. The effect of lateral device geometries on charge transport in poly(3-hexylthiophene): phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) blends is studied using charge extraction by a linearly increasing voltage (CELIV). Nanogap devices ranging from 30 to 200 nm, fabricated using focused ion beam and physical sputter etching, are compared to planar diodes. Relative to planar P3HT:PCBM devices of the same electrode spacing, the charge carrier mobility doubles and the conductivity increases by an order of magnitude in the nanogap devices. Within the nanogap devices, as the gap spacing is decreased from 200 nm to 30 nm, the conductivity increases and the mobility decreases by an order of magnitude, resulting in charge carrier mobilities on the order of 1x10^-8 m^2/Vs and conductivities of about 2x10^-6 S/m at an electric field strength of 2 MV/m. These trends are discussed within the context of a Gaussian disorder model and percolation theory in disordered bulk heterojunction blends. From a disorder perspective, these results suggest that the positional disorder in the 30 nm gaps is greater than in the 200 nm gaps, which is contrary to predictions by certain models. Thus, organic BHJ solar cells with lateral device architectures exhibit enhanced charge transport, leading to greater potential power conversion efficiencies.
Looks like participants are internationally part of EU-GCC, EECA, KAUST, and etc.

MUSCAT: The two day INCONET-GCC round table workshop concluded yesterday on a high note with the invited experts and speakers sharing the relevance and benefits of best practice in science, technology and innovation policy.
The event was hosted by the Research Council of Oman on Monday and Tuesday. The workshop provided a unique opportunity for the participants to engage in constructive dialogue on best practices in research and innovation policies.
The INCONET-GCC, which started early 2010 and will run to end of 2011, is a collaborative project between the European Union and the GCC countries.
Dr Abdullah bin Mohammed Al Sarmi, undersecretary, Ministry of Higher Education, presided over the opening of the workshop.
Speaking to Times of Oman, Dr Hilal Al Hinai, secretary-general, Research Council said, “The objective of the workshop was to create a roadmap for establishing a fruitful collaboration by looking at the capabilities of both the GCC and EU to find effective mechanisms in institutions in both regions.”
He explained that the focus was also to try and find priority areas for research collaborations. “We know that GCC countries are trying to put a lot of effort on science and technology. So it was important that we look at the best practice in science and technology policies and learn from them,” Hinai added.
The secretary-general of the Research Council also added that though there are research collaborations under the bilateral umbrella it was important to look for a way where institutions within the GCC become partners at the EU level.
“We want to try and enter into collaborations with groups that are formed at the EU level. There are certain procedures that are normally followed. We would like to see GCC countries participate in these collaborations,” he said.
On the first day Hilal Al Hinai, in his welcome address stressed that the conference aims result in a number of concrete conclusions on strengths and weaknesses in the GCC-countries in this area, and help provide concrete guidance of measures to be taken through international collaboration, including joint research and innovation activities between the GCC and European Union countries, to improve the performance of research in support of favourable societal outcomes for the long term.
Stavroula Maglavera from Euro-consultants, Prof Cristina Flesia from the University of Ferrara from Italy, Jassim Sheikh from Jonkoping International Business representative: European Commission made the opening remarks.
Besides discussing science and technology policy, they also discussed the relationship between S&T, research and development, innovation, enterprise and industry development and entrepreneurship.

Draw your own conclusions, however I think I can understand why QTMM may delay filing as long as possible. That said, I think things are speeding up.
an interesting article about CdSe and qds in general
http://quantumdot.lanl.gov/novel.shtml
QDs are constantly evolving.
What if QTMM could produce any qd in desired quantity?
Thanks,
Came across one thing in the past that mentioned 8%. Don't know all the particulars myself. My take on it is that it shows they are still working on there vision as stated.
#4969 though dated helps establish contact between G.J. and N.P.
They later had several patents together concerning Nonlinear Optical Chromophore.
N.P. is working with Nitto Denko on holographic display,(hello old friend). That relationship could be how Solterra and Nitto Denko came together.
Given how they've worked together Nitto Denko would seem to be a natural market for TQDs.
GJ seems to be everywhere. I've been taking his name and another's as well as a technical term like (nonlinear optical chromophore)and googling it. If I find a history, then that seems a good possible market for TQDs if associated with a company in the nano field. It's easier to get inside a company if the door has already been opened.
Think there's plenty for others to find that hasn't been posted yet.
LOL #4968 given the distance a tour of both doesn't seem likely.
The people named still seemed to be heavy hitters and they still need the infrastructure and protocol to go forward.
Your opinion and input is valued
lol you've got ears on both boards.......waiting
sign me up for a double dose, please
anyone have an idea how far Dubai and Jeddah are from each other?
regardless, I suspect transport could be arranged to showcase the latest advances in the region.
looking forward
The place of the EU-GCC meeting was in Jeddah, SA
Does anyone find that pertinent? Isn't that where The Solterra plant was going to be built?
I don't know about you, but if I was having a meeting in my backyard and had some of the latest and greatest, I'd be tempted to show out a little.

oh yeah, to have carbon credits, you'd have to have something to show....yes, that's right you'd have to have a standard agreement between countries involved to establish the infrastructure and set precedence.
addled brained me, them dots keep dancing
this party is about forging ahead and finding positive snippets of information to be able to connect dots with.
We're towards Dreams of the Future.
Lord help us if mine is the better memory, still should be fun
I wouldn't be too disappointed, Ghassan Jabbour was at

Looks like the other people there were heavy hitters, the small party involved and their positions help support that line of thought.
Even when disappointed, leaders lead. Be another George Washington and keep sounding off.
let's get this party started, we've got your back
LOL, guess I'm a target now. That should be easy, I don't claim to know much. I try to help and trust those on board to correct me if I'm wrong, then thank them for it, (all the time still looking for a more secure lifestyle). That seems like a win-win to me.
Everyone's input helps make this a better board.
