‧ 高功能奈米複合材料：用於智慧紡織、光學薄膜、自動車、化妝品等領域
AQM 目前是全球唯一提供生物相容且無重金屬污染的矽量子點製造商，已取得關鍵技術專利，並持續擴展亞洲市場，特別關注台灣半導體與電子產業的應用潛力。
Applied Quantum Materials (AQM) is a Canadian nanotechnology company specializing in the design and manufacturing of silicon-based nanomaterials. Spun off from the University of Alberta in 2016, AQM is the world’s first company to commercialize biocompatible silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) and is ISO 9001 certified. With over 300 clients in 29 countries, AQM serves research labs, startups, and multinational corporations through a global distribution network.
Key product offerings include:
‧ Silicon Quantum Dots & Nanoparticles: used in medical imaging, sensors, displays, and diagnostics
‧ High-resolution electronic materials & HSQ resists: supporting EUV and e-beam lithography
‧ Advanced polymer nanocomposites: for smart textiles, optics, automotive, and cosmetics
AQM holds unique patents on environmentally friendly SiQDs—free from toxic heavy metals like Cd, In, or Pb—and aims to expand in Taiwan's robust semiconductor and electronics industries.
