Project description
A novel technology for higher-quality mobile phone and tablet displays
As the uses for our mobile phones become more diverse, display quality has increased in importance, becoming a key criterion driving customer purchases. An exciting development in companies' searches for ways to improve display quality is the discovery of quantum dot (QD) technology that offers a number of advantages compared to current technologies. The EU-funded COENCO Display project aims to demonstrate a groundbreaking method that makes it possible for QD technology to be used in mobile phone and tablet displays. Involving colour-enriching nanocoating, the new method offers a wider variety of colours for these electronic devices. The project will pave the way to better quality images for mobile phone and tablet users.
Objective
Mobile phones and tablets have become an indispensable part of our lives. Mobile device users make many transactions with mobile phones and tablets during the day such as; sending emails, taking photos, reading newspapers, playing games, watching movies etc. According to the research, mobile device users prefer devices that are comfortable to use, do not threaten eye health and provide high quality images. Especially with the trends such as mobile phone gaming taking over from console gaming, the display quality has been a very decisive criteria behind the customers’ buying decision.
While brands’ search on how to improve the display quality has been continuing, Quantum dot (QD) technology has created an atomic bomb effect among display suppliers. QD colour components are recognized as the next generation technology in displays. Display suppliers have begun to prefer the QD technology to improve color quality on screen when they discovered the advantages compared to existing technologies.
CoENCo Display is a disruptive method that enables QD technology to be used in mobile phone and tablet displays. With its innovative method, it achieves to offer a wider variety of colors from nature on mobile phones and tablets.
The global QD-based display market is expected to reach 9 billion USD in 2026 with a CAGR of 25.2%. Our target customers are quantum dot producers and component makers, which are the suppliers of brands like Samsung, Amazon and Apple. Our initial target markets are Germany and the UK.
We have two types of sales models: Type A: Non-Exclusive Licensing, Type B: Material sales. Our target is to generate a revenue of 106 million Euro per year and create additional employment of 35 people by creating local and international partnerships by the fifth year of market introduction.
