$IQE is actually a quantum dot foundry leader believe it or not. Today IQE announced a purchase agreement with Quintessent (top player in the QD space). “As quantum dot lasers move to customer sampling.” Your QD bros like $ALMU, QD Laser (6613), and others might finally start to see the light of day, with broader commercialization in the next few years. Second order effects are QD machine chokepoints like $ALRIB that might capture more attention. But TAM is typically pretty small on the QD material epi side of things. (No disclosure over $ figure), but good news nevertheless.
