Nanoco is a Runcorn, England-based developer and manufacturer of cadmium-free quantum dots and other nanomaterials, while STMIcroelectronics is a Geneva, Switzerland-based semiconductor manufacturer.

Chief Executive Officer Brian Tenner said: "Further production orders received for first generation sensing materials will be in parallel with this JDA. ST's commitment to developing a second generation material, emphasises Nanoco's ability to be a robust partner in complex electronics supply chains."
