£500k is a drop in the ocean when developing products in the target markets. Every journey starts with a single step though as they say. Are you referring to Novoselov amerloque? He decamped to Singapore years ago thanks to good old Brexit. It was more a collaboration anyway.

Agree. Innovate loans rarely result in anything or at least not until many years later following lots more research. It does show how the field is likely to develop though and that NANO is actively involved after quite a long period where research and devleopment on new products was paused for cost saving.

Okay so I think they're two slightly different things. PTAB found the patents valid but are they valid in the context of providing clear instructions for producing dots so that Samsung didn't have to fill in gaps large enough to constitue their product being a different invention? I'm not unduly worried by this either. I would hope NANO's laywers can walk the jury through a simple step by step explanation showing the application of the patents and their relevance to Samsung's product. There's no guarantee a jury will find in our favour of course but Mintz will be very well rehersed in that kind of presentation.

I personally think that validity is decided. I don't think we can call the RNAs misleading without really knowing one way or the other.

That's super interesting. Thanks Nanonano.

Presumably the new materials for infra-red sensing will bring some new properties and advantages to the product range. Quantum technology could mean one of many thing to be honest. What NANO already do is quantum technology. Semiconductor transistors are quantum technology. At the other end of the scale is quantum computing of course. I don't think we'll find out more until the resarch is concluded but glad there's work going on beyond the immediate product roadmap.

Nice to see research into new materials continuing even if unlikely to deliver anything commercial short term.

This is only a recent development however and more to do with Samsung's first to market QD OLED technology. Previously OEMs have stuck with cadmuim.

Standard.

Thanks Feeks.

Sorry, @SAA not @SL.

@SL, I doubt very much patents in Germany would be found invalid after they've been endorsed by the PTAB in the States.

I thought old NG livened the place up a bit. One can choose whether to listen to him or not.

oneplus' tagline for their new phone: "Never Settle" - classic!

This is commiting further resources behind it though BBD. Improves my confindence. Although, it won't cost much to file the new claim in Germany and nothing to nothing to remove it settle, win or lose in Texas.

Yeah. Very confident and agressive move by Nanoco and Mintz.

Haven't NANO's concessions been about choosing the subset of arguments they want to make during the limited trial time rather than admitting Samsung has a point?

Sorry Botbot, it happened 4 weeks ago. Was just a recent example of a last minute settlement for those saying one couldn't happen.

Fully expect that if there is a settlement the details will be kept secret but then it will become obvious from later financial statements.

Apple and Koss recenlty settled this one on Saturday with the trial due to start Monday morning - https://www.engadget.com/apple-koss-wireless-headphone-airpods-patent-settlement-213044954.html

Agree with that summary Screenlearner. Spike on win with the dropping off to settle probably somewhere half way between the peak and where it is now. Carnage on a lose but steady recovery with sensor prospects being something of an insurance policy.
