Highlights I liked from the 10K.
Adoption of solar energy has a simple market driving force. If people do not adopt solar energy, the planet will become unfit for human habitation. The fossil fuels are warming the planet at an increasing rate that makes life unsustainable if something does not change.
As of January 31, 2012, the issuer had 115,589,865 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share outstanding.
Vs.
As of August 31, 2011, the issuer had 111,901,446 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share outstanding (" Common Stock ").
4 million shares increase in 6 months isn't that much...
In the last 10K they were aiming for 6% in 1 year, and 15% within 2 years. So If my assumption is correct, they already reached 10% efficiency...
From last years 10K...
Looks like they had a delay in product sales, but I'm hopeful they will have a pilot line this year...
Last 10K plan of operation stated;
The aim is to invest our best efforts to demonstrate and scale up production of low cost quantum dot solar cells having peak efficiency of greater than 6%.
This 10K they state;
The aim is to invest our best efforts to demonstrate and scale up production of low cost quantum dot solar cells having peak efficiency of greater than 10%.
So believe they reached 10% already...
Comments?
The business accomplishments have been posted already. These are my favorite ones...
-Negotiated Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Saudi business group to establish TQD & solar cell production in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
-Developed and implemented plan to establish nanobio R&D and production lab in Texas.
-Negotiated rights to sub-license technologies with Rice University. This was necessary to complete the joint venture agreements that we have been negotiating in the middle east and will be necessary as we pursue similar JV’s in other regions.
-Re-negotiated the Rice University license to split the single license agreement into two separate license agreements one with Quantum Materials Corp. for all medical applications and all electronics applications with the exception of solar, and one with Solterra Renewable Technologies Inc. just for solar. This is a significant step in structuring the parent company to be able to focus on developing new platform applications where quantum dots can be the enabling material and then forming wholly owned subsidiaries, like Solterra, to scale up and commercialize those technologies. The license agreements provide for the right to grant sublicenses subject to certain conditions.
So this confirms my assumption that besides Solterra, there will be more spin-offs in the future...
Right on!
They seem more confident they'll have sales in 2012. We can only hope...
This is an interesting statement...
Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight, while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the source is unspecified.
This reminds us that PV cells can be used with other energy sources besides the sun. (think heat, especially heat from spend nuclear fuel rods)
I wonder when I'll get my reward for this idea... ;)
Photovoltaic cells that respond to infrared – ‘thermovoltaics’
First time I see this term used...
Prior research has shown that four-legged quantum dots are many times more efficient at converting sunlight into electricity than regular quantum dots.
No comment...
But while reading the entire 10K I get the feeling that the focus is definitely on Solar because they put a lot of time in explaining the TQD's and solar market...
I get a feeling they are close...
Could we get an IPO for Solterra before we get an uplisting for QMC?
Just to remind everyone how significant 1GW of annual production with 1 line actually is...
Currently some two billion people have no access to electricity, and it is a high priority to address this need.
2011
Looking good...
All this chatter about a large scale project in the Middle East makes me happy because it indicates we are close to a deal... :)
Break time...

That's good news...
I can't wait to get the PR this month about that...
