"blue quantum dots are highly complex and costly to produce, and their quality a critical factor in any display.... exposed to ultraviolet light produces blue light... hybrid mix organic and inorganic... lead perovskite, malic acid and oleylamine... cube 64 lead atoms, four to a side... malic acid key piece... 2.4 nanometers, 190 times smaller than wavelength of blue light we sought to create with it... blue quantum dot quite short-lived, though this was expected... improve its stability with aid of industrial collaboration"
