Thanks for the clarification

Perhaps I misspoke in my enthusiasm for Natcore's technology and it's possibilities. I acknowledge that its patent for thin film disposition has many uses and stands alone as a key process in the commercial realisation of many new products.

My query could be re addressed as follows:

If a solar panel maker licenced Natcore's technology, and wished to make very efficient cells combining thin film with Quantum dots, (Nano dots) does Natcore hold rights, or patents, on the mass production of such dots? Or would the maker have to licence from other companies, such as Nanoco, QM et al.

I am aware, from reading Natcore's site, that it has worked with combining QD and thin film in the labs at Rice, but I have seen no mention of Natcore's holding any rights to mass production techniques therein.

My question had to do with the huge commercial synergy possible by being able to supply both requirements up front.

regards
