Use $q\in k^{\times }$ and $YX=qXY$ for the quantum plane. Its monomials $X^i{Y}^j$, $i,j\ge 0$, form a basis, with multiplicationOne way to verify the basis assertion without assuming it is to define this multiplication on the vector space with the displayed formal basis. This defines an associative algebra: for a third monomial $X^w{Y}^z$, the two products of three monomials have the same exponent $ju+jw+vw$ of $q$, and its generators satisfy the required relation. Conversely, the relation puts every word into this form, establishing the presentation. Order exponent pairs by the lexicographic order. The largest monomials of two nonzero finite sums give the uniquely largest monomial of their product, with coefficient $cd{q}^{ju}\ne 0$. Therefore the quantum plane is a domain. If one allows $q=0$, the assertion fails because $YX=0$ with both factors nonzero.

A uniform module is a nonzero module in which any two nonzero submodules have nonzero intersection. Suppose the right regular module of a right Noetherian domain $A$ were not a uniform module. Choose nonzero $a,b$ from two right ideals with zero intersection. Then $aA\cap bA=0$. The right idealsform a direct sum. For if ${\sum }_{i=0}^m{b}^{i}a{c}_i=0$, then $a{c}_0\in aA\cap bA$ is zero, so $c_0=0$ by the noncommutative domain property. Cancel the nonzero factor $b$ on the left and repeat to obtain every $c_i=0$. Each summand is nonzero, so their finite partial sums form a strictly ascending chain of right ideals. This contradicts the ascending chain condition of a right Noetherian ring. Hence $A$ is a uniform right module.

It follows that $aA\cap sA\ne 0$ whenever $a,s\ne 0$: there are nonzero $u,v$ with $au=sv$. This is the right Ore condition for the multiplicative set $S=A\setminus \{0\}$; zero numerators cause no difficulty. The Ore localization theorem therefore constructs the ring of right fractionsThe map is injective because an element mapping to zero is annihilated on the right by some nonzero denominator, impossible in a noncommutative domain. To make the denominator convention concrete, if $su=tv\ne 0$ thenFor multiplication, choose $bu=sc$ with $u\ne 0$; thenCommon right multiples make these operations independent of the chosen representatives. Every nonzero $a{s}^{-1}$ has inverse $s{a}^{-1}$, so $Q$ is a division ring. The original field $k$ is central in $A$ and therefore in the inverses as well, making $Q$ a division algebra over $k$. No commutative fraction field construction is being assumed.
