Demand for Quantum Dot (QD) Display and Impact of COVID-19……..
The global quantum dot display market size is
expected to reach USD 3.96 billion by
2022 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.
The ongoing COVID-19
outbreak has adversely affected the display industry with manufacturing
operations temporarily suspended across major manufacturing hubs, leading to a
substantial slowdown in the production. Major manufacturers including Samsung,
LG Display, and Xiaomi among others have suspended their manufacturing
operations in China, India, South Korea, and European countries. In addition to
having an impact on the production, the ongoing pandemic has taken a toll on
the consumer demand for display integrated devices, likely exacerbated by the
lockdown imposed across major countries. Uncertainty regarding the possible
length of lockdown makes it difficult to anticipate how and when a resurgence in
the display industry will occur. On the flip side, increased demand for
displays in medical equipment including ventilators and respirators is expected
to keep the demand for displays afloat in the coming months. The report will
account for Covid19 as a key market contributor.
Increasing awareness regarding energy-efficient displays is
expected to boost global quantum dot display market growth. Surge in demand for
advanced QLED powered TVs has propelled industry growth.
Advancements in quantum dot (QD) technology have made them
useful for television manufacturers giving them a competitive edge in the
industry. Creating better color with color tuning features has become a key
selling point for display manufacturers. Moreover, adoption of QDs is expected
to increase in smaller displays such as in smartphones and tablet devices owing
to its capabilities in creating sharp crisp displays.
Cadmium-containing semiconductor-based QDs exhibit superior
performance as compared to their cadmium-free counterparts. However, the toxic
nature of such heavy metals has raised environmental concerns. Regulations in
EU and Japan restrict the use of cadmium, compelling vendors to focus on the
development of Cadmium Free Quantum Dots (CFQD). Manufacturers offering
high-performance cadmium-free QDs in adequate volumes are expected to gain
competitive advantage in the market moving forward.

The Quantum Dot
(QD) display market size was estimated to be valued at USD 302.3 million in
2014. Increasing demand for optimized display devices with better resolution
quality and performance has driven the adoption of QD technology across various
consumer electronics application areas.
Increasing
demand for QD-enhanced LED displays among global population has driven industry
growth. Growth in demand for QLED displays can be attributed to increased
energy-efficiency, more vibrant colors, and better brightness. Ongoing
improvements in QD performance are driving increased demand for high-resolution
displays with lower power consumption requirements.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
·
QD based LEDs or QLEDs segment dominated
the global quantum dot display industry accounting for over 45% of the market
share in 2014. QD LED technology enables OEMs to manufacture UHD TVs with
enhanced color gamut as compared to OLED UHD TVs, at reduced costs and improved
energy-efficiency. In 2014, Samsung progressed from conventional UHD OLED TVs
to QD-based LED 4K TVs to evade high development costs. Competitor TV companies
such as Panasonic, LG,and Sharp have started developing UHD TVs incorporating QD
technology, thereby driving the industry’s growth prospects.
·
QDs are made up of binary compounds such as
cadmium selenide, cadmium sulfide, cadmium telluride, and indium arsenide.
However, toxicity of cadmium and global environmental regulations like the Restriction
of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive and the Toxic Substances Control Act
have limited the amount of heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury that
can be used in consumer electronic devices resulting in increased production of
CFQD technology, and opened the doors for OEMs to use QDs in a variety of
consumer electronic display devices.
·
Consumer electronics segment dominates the
QD display market accounting for over 70% of the revenue share owing to
increasing use of this technology in TVs and mobile devices. In healthcare,
such display technology is extensively used in activities such as cancer
diagnosis, DNA labeling, cellular labeling, and biological imaging.
·
North America dominated the global quantum
dot display industry acquiring over 40% of the overall global revenue share in
2014. Key QD manufacturers in the industry are based in the U.S. owing to
extensive R&D spending over advanced QD display technologies and high
production capacities.
·
Key industry participants include Dow Chemical,
Nanoco Group, Nanosys, and Quantum Material Corporation. In addition to these,
consumer electronic giants such as LG and Samsung are making joint efforts to
develop and encourage the use of CFQD, with the latter already incorporating
such advanced technology in its SUHD TV models.
Quantum dots are
increasingly used for biological imaging, targeting, and detection
applications. The technology is envisioned for significant growth over the
forecast period as QDs can be used as effective alternatives to fluorescent
probes in biological imaging. Moreover, the rise in awareness levels regarding
health and fitness among the global population is presumed to drive market
growth across healthcare applications.
The industry
incorporates considerable opportunities for growth as top-tier manufacturers
are unable to find any other distinguishing factor in LCD displays. They are
envisioned to take advantage of QLED TVs earlier than others by developing and
introducing quantum dot display devices.
However, compliance with
stringent government regulations on the use of cadmium and other heavy metals
in the manufacture of QDs is expected to challenge market growth over the next
seven years.
