Who knows?? Maybe years or a decade or so down the road there will be a need for continuous flow for solar, but there are not even any small scale commercial solar uses for qdots yet, and those will surely exist and be well tested before any company needs a continuous flow reactor.
Right now in the Qdot evolutionary cycle they are going into displays, and hopefully QTMM is trying to sell their dots rather than sell reactors no one needs or will want the headaches of dealing with.

In a solar or other high volume JV, that might make sense, but I agree with dms, I'm not sure that the few pluses outweight the negatives. BTW, didn't the CEO of the company with >6 consecutive quarters of QD sales growth say that the value was in the know-how and that the labor and capital were negligible making QD's the ideal product to manufacture in Silicon Valley?

IF our manufacturing technology IS our competitive advantage, I wouldn't think it prudent to let out of our site/sight.
