Traction motor sales grow faster than electric vehicle sales because small vehicles such as mobility for the disabled have two motors. IFEVS has put two in microcars for four-wheel drive. In larger cars, two motors is now commonplace for economy, performance, four-wheel drive, vectored steering and attack survival.

Solution processed light emitting organic materials were demonstrated in 1989 with a tiny 0.1 EQE (external quantum efficiency). Since then there has been tremendous progress on material synthesis/production as well as on display processing. However, thus far, commercialization has remained elusive. In this article we will argue that the page may be about to turn.

Aerogels are a class of advanced porous materials with a huge amount of potential. However, despite being discovered back in the 1930s, this potential has never turned to a booming commercial reality. Since the turn of the century there has been significant growth, but the industry has once again stalled before greater growth.

Car demand will collapse as people move to cities. $100 billion was written off the stock value of car companies recently. The US economy is on a sugar rush from a trillion-dollar borrowing boost at the top of the cycle. Climate change getting out of control in 12 years? These and many other negative indicators can portend a recession, maybe a severe one. What are the implications for EVs?

Like many advanced materials, there is a significant learning curve to progress promising lab results to real commercial products. This includes a learning experience from the manufacturer, for cost-effective high-volume production, and a learning experience for the end-user, to establish the value and utilisation of this market entry. IDTechEx have been following this market throughout this learning experience, and the 13th edition of their commercially focussed B2B graphene conference, Graphene & 2D Materials, will be held from 10 - 11 April 2019 in Berlin, Germany.

量子ドット（QD）はナノテクノロジーが商業的に成功した事例の一つで、現在、既にディスプレイに応用されています。注目すべきなのは、量子ドット技術とその応用分野が急速に広がっていることです。この記事では量子ドット技術のイノベーションと実用化の最前線を取り上げます。

The IDTechEx Show! presents 3D Printing 2019 in Berlin, which offers the opportunity for key innovators and end users across several verticals to share their insights and expertise in the leading edge of additive manufacturing. IDTechEx forecasts the total market value of 3D printers, materials and services will be $22 billion by 2028.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 21 February 2019 titled Piezoelectric Roads and Self-Powered IOT Sensors: Big Potential MicroW to MW?

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 7 March titled Electric Vehicles in Construction, Agriculture and Mining: Over $100 bn Market Emerging.

Bad strategy rather than tactics, such as misjudged new models, will kill several major automotive companies. They face a perfect storm of peak car, totally new technology, totally new markets and recession.

Forecasts from IDTechEx report 'Transparent Conductive Films and Materials 2019-2029'

IDTechEｘのリサーチによるとプリントされ、曲げることのできる有機エレクトロニクスは2018年で316億米ドルの市場価値があります。そのほとんどは有機EL（OLED）ディスプレイでガラス基板のものは今や黄金時代に入りつつあります。折り曲げられるOLEDやプリントされたOLEDは商業的成長段階に入ろうとしています。さらに数多くの多様な用途に使われる導電性インクの市場は20億米ドルにもなろうとしており（今のところバイオセンサーが主流の）センサーの市場は36億米ドルです。
