When excited by an external light source, a quantum dot can emit any wavelength of light by tuning the size of the particle. This unique characteristic makes the technology ideal in a wide array of applications such as display, lighting, biomedical and security applications. Nanoco’s leading CFQD® quantum dots contains no cadmium or other toxic heavy metals while maintaining great performance thanks to Nanoco’s patented production process that allows for the manufacture of high quality nanoparticles on a large scale.

Transform indoor farming with Nanoco’s state of the art quantum dot technology. The Deep-Red CFQD® Quantum Dot Film is the first quantum dot film released specifically for plant growth applications.  When combined with blue and/or near-UV LEDs, provides the optimal spectra to encourage maximum chlorophyll absorption and promote healthy growing, while minimizing energy consumption. Nanoco’s CFQD® quantum dots are completely free of cadmium and other heavy metals making them ideal for horticultural use.
