Quantum Dots Launched For The First Time In Lighting

Quantum Dot lighting has been installed at the International WELL Building Institute global headquarters in New York City, which has achieved the WELL Certification under the latest version of the WELL Building Standard, WELL v2.

Vancouver based Nano-Lit Technologies lighting system adjusts wavelengths and colour temperature throughout the day to support the alignment of the body’s circadian rhythm to the day-night cycle.

SENSO Lighting fixtures with Nano-Lit light engines address features within the WELL Light concept of WELL v2.

The effect of light on people is an emerging area of study and to date we know more about its effect on plants than people in buildings.

Thus, Nano-Lit is working with circadian rhythm researchers at five leading US and Canadian universities to study lighting as part of the treatment regimen for cancer, delirium, insomnia, depression and aging-related conditions.

Quantum Dots, which facilitate improved wavelength control as well as minimise blue light more than standard LED phosphors, have been used in Biotechnology for screening for decades and in the past five years have been used in the Samsung QLED displays.
