Correction re posted comments about Nanoco
Nanoco does not make CdaSe dots except in small quantities for research. Their patents cover bulk manufacturing of cadmium free dots,covering a wide non toxic spectrum of the periodic table. Cadmium is banned in many markets, and Nanoco hopes to gain an edge because of this. Most stateside Qdot makers have gone the cadmium route, which I think could be a mistake.
Nanoco's dots are structurally different as well, being spheres, while QTM's are tetrapods.
Also the Nanoco share price was mis-stated in a lower post. It ranges around 89-92 pence (not dollars)lately. That would be around $1.36 US today.
Can you give me the source of your contention that QTM can deliver bulk QDots more cheaply than Nanoco, or others? There is a big difference between per gram price for research use and the bulk price in kilos for end user manufacturing. Are you sure you haven't been comparing apples to oranges?
