OLED Inventor Joins QD Vision Advisory Board

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
LEXINGTON, Mass., March 8, 2012 — Organic LED (OLED) inventor and Wolf Prize in chemistry winner Ching Tang has joined quantum dot product supplier QD Vision Inc.’s scientific advisory board, the company announced Wednesday.

Tang, the Doris Johns Cherry Professor at the University of Rochester, is credited with several innovations that led to the commercialization of OLED flat panel display technology, including the discovery of the basic heterojunction device structure.

He joins professors Vladimir Bulovic and Moungi Bawendi on the company’s three-member board, said Dr. Seth Coe-Sullivan, founder and chief technology officer.

“His creation of the OLED and organic photovoltaic fields has shaped 25 years of research and technology around the world, changing how we display information and harvest solar energy,” Coe-Sullivan said. “We look forward to him having a similar impact on our quantum dot devices in the lighting and display markets.”

Glossary
photonics
The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
quantum dots
A quantum dot is a nanoscale semiconductor structure, typically composed of materials like cadmium selenide or indium arsenide, that exhibits unique quantum mechanical properties. These properties arise from the confinement of electrons within the dot, leading to discrete energy levels, or "quantization" of energy, similar to the behavior of individual atoms or molecules. Quantum dots have a size on the order of a few nanometers and can emit or absorb photons (light) with precise wavelengths,...
