The proposed research will accelerate the commercialization of a breakthrough renewable energy technology as a next generation, cost competitive alternative to fossil and nuclear fuels. A successful commercialization outcome for our quantum dot solar cell technology requires further investment to demonstrate its scalability at high efficiencies, develop encapsulation methodologies for stable performance in outdoor environments and fully understand our materials through thermal and reliability testing. This project will support this essential stage of prototype validation required to attract seed investment in a startup company established to commercialize the technology and form strategic manufacturing partnerships to accelerate the time to market.

拟议的研究将加速突破性可再生能源技术的商业化，作为下一代具有成本竞争力的化石和核燃料替代品。我们的量子点太阳能电池技术的成功商业化成果需要进一步投资，以证明其高效率的可扩展性，开发在户外环境中稳定性能的封装方法，并通过热和可靠性测试充分了解我们的材料。该项目将支持原型验证的这一重要阶段，以吸引对一家初创公司的种子投资，该公司旨在将该技术商业化，并形成战略制造合作伙伴关系，以加快上市时间。
