Abstract

A method for synthesizing copper-zinc-tin-sulfur quantum dots by utilizing ultrasonic cavitation comprises the following steps: mixing cupric sulfate pentahydrate crystals, zinc sulphate heptahydrate crystals, stannic sulfate dihydrate crystals and thiocarbamide crystals, adding the mixture into ethylene alcohol, and mixing uniformly to obtain a solution A; immersing the probe of an ultrasonic treatment instrument into the solution A, and then separating powder from the solution subjected to treatment by the ultrasonic treatment instrument; finally, washing the powder with n-dodecyl mercaptan so as to remove excessive sulfur ions. With adoption of the method disclosed by the invention, the copper-zinc-tin-sulfur quantum dots are synthesized by utilizing ultrasonic cavitation. The method has the advantages of simple and convenient operation, high repeatability, low cost, controllability of granular size of the copper-zinc-tin-sulfur quantum dots and the like. In addition, no highly toxic chemical substances are used during the whole process, the preparation process is fast, the environmentally friendliness is achieved, and the prepared copper-zinc-tin-sulfur material is pure in phase.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the fields of fluorescent dye biomedicine, novel nanometer quantum dot solar cell, semiconductor photoelectrochemical cell (Photoelectrochemical) solar hydrogen production, etc. 2 ZnSnS 4 ) the method of nano quantum dot (quantum dot). 【Background technique】 [0002] Semiconductor material quantum dots are semiconductor nanostructures that bind conduction band electrons, valence band holes and excitons in three spatial directions. Electron motion is restricted in all three dimensions, and is therefore sometimes called an "artificial atom," a "superlattice," a "superatom," or a "quantum dot atom." Such constraints can be attributed to electrostatic potentials (generated by external electrodes, doping, strain, impurities), interfaces of two different semiconductor materials (e.g. in self-assembled quantum dots), semiconductor surfaces (e.g. semiconductor nanocrystals ), or a combination of the above three. Quantum dots have...
