GSアライアンス Product Lineup

"Perovskite-type quantum dots" are products that have crystallized perovskite-type compounds into nanocrystals. In display applications, quantum dots such as CdSe/ZnS and InP/ZnS are gradually being commercialized, but the strong toxicity of Cd and the rarity of In are problematic. Additionally, the synthesis of InP/ZnS requires an environment that completely blocks O2 and H2O, and issues regarding the chemical stability and durability of InP remain. From this perspective, we developed our "perovskite-type quantum dots." They have adjustable emission wavelengths and a narrow emission spectrum (full width at half maximum), which gives them great potential in areas such as displays, lasers, LEDs, solar cells, and medical biomarkers. [Features] ■ Quantum yield is approximately 50-90% ■ Emission wavelength is adjustable ■ Emission spectrum (full width at half maximum) is narrow at 18nm-39nm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *If you would like paid samples, please inquire.

"Quantum dots" refer to nanoscale semiconductor crystals that possess unique optical properties governed by quantum chemistry and quantum mechanics. It is possible to adjust the bandgap based on the size of the colloidal nanocrystals, resulting in characteristic luminescent properties that depend on particle size. Not only can the emission wavelength be tuned and the spectral half-width be narrow, but they also exhibit high quantum efficiency and the ability to absorb a wide range of wavelengths. Since they can be dispersed in solutions (water and various organic solvents), low-cost printing and coating techniques can be employed. In addition to the bright and vivid coloration of quantum dots, they can emit light across a broad range of wavelengths, and they are characterized by high efficiency, long lifetimes, and high attenuation coefficients, leading to active research and development for various applications. [Applications] ■ Biological imaging ■ Lighting, displays ■ Solar cells ■ Security tags ■ Quantum dot lasers ■ Photonic materials ■ Transistors ■ Thermoelectric materials ■ Quantum computers etc. *Please contact us if you would like to request paid samples.

"Metal-organic frameworks and porous coordination polymers" are porous materials obtained through the self-assembly of metal ions and organic ligands. By bridging the metal ions, which serve as nodal points, with organic ligands, a framework structure is constructed, and the voids within this framework act as spaces for molecular incorporation, resulting in a very large surface area. Porous materials have been a factor hindering the research and development of highly functional and multifunctional porous materials that coexist with multiple pore functions. In this regard, metal-organic frameworks have made it possible to construct very complex structures and exhibit higher-order functions by precisely incorporating coordination bonds into molecular design, regardless of infinite or finite (crystalline or solution) structures. [Features] ■ Porous materials obtained through the self-assembly of metal ions and organic ligands ■ Voids within the framework act as spaces for molecular incorporation ■ Not limited to infinite or finite (crystalline or solution) structures ■ Capable of constructing very complex structures and exhibiting higher-order functions ■ A wide range of applications is expected, including gas storage, selective storage of molecules and ions, electrolytes, and sensors *If you would like a paid sample, please contact us.
