About
Nanosys is a California-based nanotechnology company founded by Larry Bock, Charles Lieber, and Paul Alivisatos, working on the development and manufacture of quantum dot materials for display applications. Headquartered in Milpitas, in California's Silicon Valley, the company operates a quantum dot nanomaterials fabrication facility and holds a broad intellectual property portfolio with numerous patents. As of 2023, leading consumer electronics brands had shipped more than 70 million devices across over 1,000 unique products based on Nanosys' proprietary quantum dot technology, including tablets, monitors, and televisions. The company's quantum dot enhancement films (QDEF) are a major commercial success in applying quantum materials science to consumer technology. In September 2023, Nanosys was acquired by Shoei Chemical, Inc., and its quantum dot research and development team and Silicon Valley laboratories were integrated into Shoei's operations. Dr. Martin Devenney serves as CEO, succeeding Jason Hartlove, who led the company from 2008 to 2023.
