RE: Display delay8 Nov 2018 09:36
Well the only other serious competitor to Nanoco in the QD display field is nanosys, and they have some heavyweights on their side- Samsung, 3m (probably less so now), Hitachi etc. I dare say they lobbied hard to extend exemption, or buy them some breathing space to develop cad free themselves
The bottom line is beyond Samsung very few companies have bothered with QD's in display up until now. A few have dipped their toes in the water with a model or two, but hardly committed to the tech in the way Samsung have.
So for the EU, the exemption was probably a lower priority than other technologies.
