Quantum dot technologist Nanosys acquires micro led company Gl ō

Recently, Nanosys, an American supplier of quantum dot luminescent materials and technologies, announced the acquisition of GL, a Swedish micro LED display technology company ō。

The acquisition will significantly expand the intellectual property portfolio and technology product portfolio of Nanosys, and accelerate the process of widely applying its micro led and nano LED display technology to future displays.

Information shows that Nanosys was founded in 2001 and headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, USA. It has the world's largest quantum dot nano material factory and currently has more than 1000 (issued and under application) global patents.

By 2021, the industry's leading consumer electronics brands have shipped more than 35 million devices based on Nanosys's proprietary quantum dot technology, covering tablets, displays and TVs.

Gl ō Founded in 2003, xgan micro led was developed through unique methods and processes. Before the acquisition, GL ō More than 200 million US dollars has been invested in the development of the most cutting-edge micro led epitaxy, device and transfer technology, leading the performance of micro led.

Previously, GL ō He has cooperated with Kyocera, JDI and other Japanese manufacturers in the field of micro led.

In 2019, JDI, Kyocera and GL ō We have cooperated to develop a 1.8-inch micro LED display based on LTPS backplane, with resolution of 200 PPI and brightness of 1000000nits, focusing on Intelligent wearable applications.

Next, Nanosys will work with GL ō Jointly develop the smallest, brightest and lowest cost micro led solutions, promote micro led penetration into the mainstream TV market, and open the door to AR, car and other emerging application markets.

A person in the industry said that at present, the cost-effective ultra small and ultra bright micro led solution has not yet come out, and Nanosys is not suitable for GL ō The acquisition of micro led marks the combination of micro led and quantum dot technology, which is expected to release the potential of micro LED market in the future, drive down the production cost, and maximize the performance of products.
