Michael Schmidt, Founder, CEO and CTO Nanotechnology has made big waves in tech innovations, transforming various industries with a broad spectrum of nanoscale marvels. However, dynamic business requirements prompted the technology to undergo a once-in-a-lifetime shift to align with the modern-day industrial landscape, often inundated by energy crises and various other challenges. The focus now is on developing new products that strike the right balance between increased performance and environmental sustainability.
Perovskite nanomaterials are ideal for this shift, raising the bars of innovations while upholding operational efficiency.
A leading innovator in the nanotechnology space, Quantonics Crystals (QC) is at the forefront of this much-needed industry-wide shift. It specializes in developing, manufacturing, and supplying high-quality advanced materials, such as perovskites, nanomaterials, quantum dots, graphenes, and carbon nanomaterials. Each of these products is carefully manufactured at its state-of-the-art facilities to cater to various needs across different industry verticals. From solar cell energy storage, sensors, and detectors to optoelectronics and photovoltaics, the QC product portfolio is ideal for numerous applications. QC’s products have also proven optimal for various medical applications, including cancer cell detection.
As the guardian of environmental sustainability, QC has designed its eco-friendly quantum dots and lead-free perovskite to replace the hazardous materials often found in nanotech devices. It is a testament to the company’s commitment to building a cleaner and greener ecosystem for sustainable technological advancement.
What lies at the heart of QC’s high-quality, purpose-built product suite is its R&D excellence and manufacturing expertise. Its innovation labs push the boundaries to develop new products and processes, allowing it to meet clients’ ever-evolving needs. Its team of industry experts—who share the same passion—is constantly exploring new avenues in producing materials that offer superior performance, reliability, and value. Its cost-effective production methods complement its R&D excellence, facilitating the precise production of high-quality products that enhance customer satisfaction.
“At QC, our expertise goes beyond manufacturing; it extends to delivering strategic guidance to clients on prototype design and product development,” says Michael Schmidt, QC’s founder, CEO, and CTO.
The company’s unmatched industry experience best translates into personalized consulting and technical support for clients, assisting their solutions development processes in optoelectronics and sensor technologies. From idea conception to product realization, the team covers all of it. It is also well-versed in assessing and verifying the technical specifications of customer solutions to ensure the viability of their concept. The team’s innovative thinking and ambition, combined with years of experience building and improving processes, are integral in delivering practical support and advice. For instance, it helps optimize electrode and layer architecture for the next generation of perovskite solar cells, ensuring higher efficiency and enhanced durability while supporting the global shift toward sustainable energy sources with precision and professionalism.

QC is working on two projects focused on developing a new generation of perovskite solar cells that deliver substantial benefits and performance enhancements. It also assists an energy storage technology partner in building a high-energy-density supercapacitor. Material composition, in addition to structural considerations, would be integral for these projects.
A testimonial from a Japanese corporation best demonstrates QC’s value proposition. One of its partners says, “We highly appreciate your cooperation and invaluable product information, which has been instrumental in our decision-making process.”
QC attributes its success to a powerful network of partners. One among them is a government institution, JETRO that helped establish its presence in Japan. The company is also working with Sharp Corporation, a Japanese electronics company, on tandem solar cell development while its ventures in Japan are backed by Ossila Ltd., the research equipment manufacturer and Material Technology (MT) Trading Co., Ltd, a wholesale import and export expert.
“I am also immensely grateful to my family for funding and supporting my tech company,” says Schmidt.
Supported by the Schmidt’s family, QC focuses on corporate expansions, extending its footprint globally while prioritizing clients’ success. The company is in discussions with the investors to explore the possibility of scaling production and development operations in Japan and the U.S. Committed to facilitating further expansion and realizing its set objectives, QC remains keen to explore new projects and partnerships to drive growth and innovation
