*** GNT Team Note: This announcement was significant now almost 2 and a-half years ago. But Team GNT wants to know .. “Where are they now?” 

 

May 6, 2011 – Evident Technologies Corporation and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd entered into a comprehensive patent licensing and purchasing agreement for Evident’s quantum dot LED technology. This agreement grants Samsung worldwide access to Evident’s patent portfolio for all products related to quantum dot LEDs from manufacture of the quantum dot nanomaterials to final LED production.

“We are excited that Samsung, the leader in consumer electronics, has licensed our quantum dot technology,” said Dr. Clint Ballinger, CEO of Evident Technologies. “We already enjoy a terrific working relationship and look forward to the future of this technology.”

Quantum dots are nanometer-sized semiconductor crystals that have great commercial promise in electronic applications from solar energy conversion to thermoelectrics to LEDs. Evident commercialized quantum dot LEDs with products launched in 2007.
