Quantum dots (QD) are a success story in displays. The current incumbent mode of integration is film type (enhancement film). The value chain for this is well-established. The technology can be integrated in large displays (TVs) from 27" to 98". This article provides a brief look at multiple key applications.

Here we give the abstracts relevant to electric vehicles from BIT Advanced Materials Conference Osaka Japan July 2019. The organisers failed to provide slides but we have photographs of some of these if you are interested. The selected abstracts are divided into energy storage, wide bandgap semiconductors, energy harvesting and other.

This premium article aims to give you a comprehensive analysis of the implementation of thermal interface materials for electric vehicles. \r\n

In the world of flexible electronics, printed electronics and In Mold Structural Electronics IMSE ™ the staple is metal patterning for basic purposes such as interconnects.

From Day two we highlight a presentation on a new additive composite technology used initially to optimise drones and on a new way of more precisely tailoring porous materials for energy storage, energy conversion and other applications.

Presentation by Dr Peter Harrop to BIT Advanced Materials Conference Osaka Japan 23 July 2019\r\n

This substantial conference was the eighth in the BIT series with a wide range of topics addressed by a global speaker lineup and audience. Here we report aspects relevant to electric vehicles. Sir David Payne of Southampton University reported on silica in photonics where hollow fiber has some advantages over silica fiber now, but we deploy enough silica fiber every hour to encircle the earth.
