Annual Quantum Dot Display Technology and Market Outlook Report
Report Summary
Quantum dots have been used for a decade to enhance colors in LCD panels. The latest display technology to be commercialized is QD-OLED. This technology uses a Quantum Dot Color Conversion (QDCC) layer that is inkjet-printed on top of an OLED panel. There has been a lot of progress in electroluminescent quantum dots (EL-QD) in recent years. This technology removes the need for a blue OLED stack as the quantum dots emit light directly instead of converting colors. Leading display manufacturers, including Samsung Display, TCL, Sharp and BOE, have demonstrated EL-QD prototypes recently. MicroLED displays can also make use of quantum dots. Color conversion is seen as a solution to address the low efficiency of red MicroLEDs. It is also considered for small monolithic MicroLED displays. The report also predicts perovskite materials capturing some market share. Perovskites are often described as a new class of quantum dots because they offer better performance. The technology is currently in the early stage of commercialization and the supply chain will take some time to build.

Order Report
Applications of quantum dots in displays continue to grow. Quantum dot films are already common in LCD panels, especially in premium products with MiniLED backlights. Since 2022, Samsung Display has also started shipping QD-OLED panels for TVs and monitors. This innovative display technology combines the perfect contrast of OLED with the wide color gamut provided by quantum dots. Quantum dots can now be found in a variety of devices, including TVs, monitors, notebooks and VR headsets. However, this is only the beginning as display manufacturers develop new technologies such as MicroLED and electroluminescent quantum dots for future consumer products.
Architectures covered in this report include: Quantum Dot Enhancement Film (QDEF), Quantum Dot Color Conversion (QDCC) and Electroluminescent Quantum Dots (EL-QD).
