filing a patent application. To me inventor has a different meaning than liar.@As I have said before, it is not my responsibility to explain how the thing works.@
YOU are placing the soon-to-come-explanation thing on your website, so that would it appear that you feel some responsability, whey else would you have put it there.
@What an open-minded group they (semiconductor people) must be.@This collegue in question has been working in that field well before q-dots appeared, so he has seen the rise of that technology (limited to his own techical field) through patents and literature. I think that such is a good basis for not being mystified.
@that Q-dots are extremely unusual"
Well, yes, they are indeed unusual, because of their size. It's that size that allows for applications on a different scale that were not possible before.
But an odd semiconductor laser does stricly the same thing : emit light! So what's so special about the light the q-dots are emitting?
@Q-dots are among the most intensely studied things on the planet. Hello! Where have you been?@How do you know that? Telecom people at the office are crumbling under their workload, I did not hear similar things from the nanotech people!
As for the explanation, at least the manufacturer should know exactly what his chip is carrying and what the chip is doing, why don't you ask him?
