Ubiqd

Description

• UbiQD, LLC is a New Mexico limited liability company established in 2014 by Dr. Hunter McDaniel to commercialize a disruptive nanotechnology. The company is located at the New Mexico Consortium (NMC) Laboratory in Los Alamos, NM. UbiQD produces low-toxicity quantum dots (QDs) so inexpensively that they will become ubiquitous through various target applications including safety, design, solar energy, lighting, security, and personal care. What differentiates UbiQD from its competitors in the quantum dot (QD) industry (total 2015 industry sales of ~$300 million with 90% annual growth) is its focus on a specific class of low-hazard semiconductor QDs composed of CuInSeS and ZnSeS, which are synthesized by an extremely low-cost manufacturing process. Typically, QDs are composed of either cadmium selenide or indium phosphide, both of which are highly toxic and extremely expensive, which limits their application to displays. UbiQDs goal is to enter new markets enabled by the dramatically lower costs and negligible toxicity of their materials. In a recent ranking by New Materials News, UbiQD was selected as the #7 QD company with the judges stating: Despite its age, UbiQD has quickly established itself as one of the most interesting and innovative companies in the sector. The low price point of its low-toxicity QDs means that it is able to enter industries that have so far been off-limits. The dry Los Alamos climate provides the perfect conditions for reproducible nanomaterial production while the close proximity to Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratory allows for beneficial collaborations with leading scientists in the area. The company is licensing technology developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and MIT.
