Samsung Electronics has announced that its latest QLED TV lineup has received the 'Real Quantum Dot Display' certification from TÜV Rheinland, a German international certification organization. This certification verifies that Samsung's QLED TVs meet global standards for quantum dot display structure, reinforcing the company's position in the premium TV market.
The certification confirms compliance with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 62595-1-6 standard, which involves the application of quantum dot light converting units combined with blue light sources for standard QLED displays.
TÜV Rheinland analyzed the light spectrum produced by Samsung QLED TVs and confirmed clear separation between red, green, and blue colors. This is an important marker of color accuracy enabled by quantum dots. The results highlight how Samsung’s use of quantum dots contributes to delivering vivid and precise color expression.
With this latest certification, Samsung's QLED TVs are officially validated as true quantum dot displays. "This certification objectively validates that Samsung QLED TVs deliver true quantum dot performance built to international standards," said Taeyong Son, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. He added that they will continue to drive innovation and strengthen consumer trust as leaders in the premium TV market.
The certified series include Neo QLED 8K (QN990F, QN900F), Neo QLED 4K (QN90F, QN85F, QN80F, QN70F), and QLED 4K (Q8F, Q7F, Q6F).
Quantum dots are ultra-fine nanomaterials known for their ability to reproduce precise and vivid colors depending on light wavelength. Their integration into display panels is a key indicator of technological advancement in the premium TV segment.
Separately, Samsung’s cadmium-free quantum dot technology has been recognized by Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS) for its environmentally conscious design that eliminates cadmium use — a toxic heavy metal posing risks to health and the environment.
