New nanoscale “quantum dot” technology

QD Vision doesn’t yet have a commercial product, but if its development efforts are successful, it could find itself at the center of a revolution in display technology. Current liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and even cutting-edge organic LED, or OLEDs, are illuminated by electricity-thirsty fluorescent backlights and produce muddy, impure shades of red, green, and blue. By contrast, QD Vision’s “quantum dots”—tiny semiconductor crystals only a few nanometers in diameter—produce highly pure colors when stimulated by electrons, and require much less electricity in order to glow brightly.

rubbish

Who was this written by? Looks like its just cut and pasted. "even cutting-edge organic LED, or OLEDs, are illuminated by electricity-thirsty flourescent baklights and produce muddy, impure shades or red, green, and blue"

the "LED" part in OLED means "light emitting diode", that means it doesn't need a backlight... dumbasses

muddy colors, it makes it sounds as though they are shite when obviously they are far from "muddy"
