Perseverance is the most important factor in garnering a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award, according to Brimrose Corp.’s founder and CEO. And he should know. In 1984, Dr. Ron Rosemeier found himself at the end of his postdoc with the University of Maryland and nothing to show for it. His SBIR applications had been rejected 20 times. He had maxed out his credit cards, piling up $100,000 in debt. He had been unemployed for three months. The dream of this self-described technology geek to start his own photonics company appeared to be over before it had begun. But...Read full article

    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,...
