"integrating quantum dots into solar panels improves light absorption/ spectral response, advances utility-scale solar project performance... doping perovskite materials boosts relative power 16% when integrated into crystalline silicon solar modules, especially benefiting bifacial... quantum dots more than double the bifacial quantum efficiency of light conversion for specific wavelengths, colors... supply agreement with UbiQD, developer of quantum dot nanotechnology... potential it to reach >100 mt production/ year."
