The following figure represents the contribution of different regions to the global quantum dots display (QD display) market in 2014.
As of 2014, the world quantum dots display (QD display) market was dominated by North America (comprising U.S. and Canada), accounting for over 35 percent of the global market revenue. The U.S. was the front runner in quantum dots-related research and thus represented the largest individual quantum dots display (QD display) market worldwide.
In recent years, the region has witnessed heavy investment and related research focusing on the development of advanced nanoparticles capable of being integrated into display units. Over 2015 – 2022, North America is expected to remain the largest quantum dots display (QD display) market. However, Asia Pacific is expected to witness maximum growth, outpacing North America and Europe during 2015 – 2022. This is because the governments in the region’s leading countries are promoting energy-efficient solutions to attain energy self-sufficiency. Such initiatives are expected to stimulate the demand for quantum dots in display products.
Raw Material Segmentation Analysis
Based on raw materials used, the global quantum dots display (QD display) market is segmented into the following categories
- Cadmium-based Raw Materials (Cadmium Selenium, Cadmium Tellurium, etc.)
- Cadmium-free Raw Materials
The following figure represents the contribution of different raw materials to the global quantum dots display (QD display) market in 2014 and 2022.
Cadmium-based raw materials (Cadmium Selenium, Cadmium Tellurium, etc.) are the preferred raw materials used for quantum dots production. In 2014, cadmium-based raw materials accounted for over two third of the global quantum dots display (QD display) market revenue. It is expected to remain the preferred raw material segment during the first half of 2015 – 2022. However, by 2022, cadmium free/less is expected to emerge as the major raw material segment.
With the prohibition on the use of heavy metals (ex- Cadmium and Cadmium-based) in electrical and electronic equipment, cadmium-free/fewer quantum dots are anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period 2015 to 2022. Thus, in view of future commercial success, manufacturers across the globe have started producing cadmium-less quantum dots having similar optical properties to cadmium-based raw materials. However, the low quantum efficiency offered compared to cadmium-based raw materials is the only shortcoming of these cadmium-free quantum dots.
