Disrupting X-ray and Short-Wave Infrared Imaging Technology with Quantum Dots

Ziel

Medical and consumer imaging face substantial challenges. The highest-resolution Xray detectors use >15-year-old technology, with inadequate image quality yielding unacceptable false negative/positive rates in mammography, especially in dense breast tissue. Meanwhile, short-wave infrared (SWIR) imaging has great commercial potential, but sensors are plagued by high cost and low scalability. QDI has a breakthrough solution to both: our unique, patented process of synthesizing PbS quantum dots of varying sizes into “ink” coatings enables revolutionary X-ray and SWIR imagers. X-ray sensors can reach 5x higher sensitivity than amorphous selenium at low dosage, with >80% high-energy absorption for contrast-enhanced mammography, greatly exceeding current detectors. SWIR sensors can be produced with exceptional speed at low cost, granting novel capabilities to device designers. With EIC support, QDI will transform medical and commercial markets, becoming a European world imaging leader.
