Merck also aquired Qlight Nanotech before the deal with nanoco
"The agreement is in line with Merck's strategy to sustainably secure its position as the global market and technology leader in display materials. With cadmium-free quantum dots a remarkable increase in the colour range and a significant reduction in power consumption can be achieved. These cadmium-free quantum dots are eco-friendly and also complement our product portfolio for the display industry," said Walter Galinat, member of the Merck Executive Board and CEO of Performance Materials. "The licence agreement with Nanoco will strengthen our position in quantum materials research, for which we laid the foundations by acquiring Qlight Nanotech of Israel last year."
