Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of polarized light detectors, and in particular relates to an intrinsic polarized light detector and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In addition to identifying the intensity and wavelength of light waves, polarization detection technology can also obtain information about the polarization state, thereby adding four additional characteristic quantities: polarization angle, polarization azimuth, ellipticity, and rotation direction. This technology expands the signal detection dimensionality through a transformation of the detection mechanism, achieving a breakthrough in signal resolution. Polarization detection imaging technology can be used to discern material geometry, roughness, porosity, water content, conductivity, relative distance, and observation angle, enabling precise observation and seeing the invisible. Traditional polarization-sensitive photodetectors are cascaded components consisting of conventional photodetectors and polarization optical elements. Their complex structure, discrete components, and cumbersome operation hinder the development of miniaturized, modular, and highly integrated photodetectors. In contrast, intrinsic polarization-sensitive photodetectors utilize polarization-sensitive semiconductor films to achieve polarization response. This simplified structure eliminates the need for designing and fabricating any additional micro- and nano-optical structures, making them one of the preferred polarization-sensitive photodetector architectures.

[0003] Currently, only two types of intrinsic polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on organic conjugated structures have been developed. One is a bulk heterojunction in which the optically active layer is a full polymer; the other is a heterojunction in which the optically active layer is composed of a polymer and a fullerene derivative [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid isomethyl ester (PC 61 All-polymer organic optoelectronic devices have excellent device performance stability and mechanical properties, but their optoelectronic performance is still relatively backward, mainly due to the lack of high-performance polymer acceptor materials and the difficulty in controlling the micromorphology of the all-polymer photoactive layer.

[0004] Fullerene receptors are widely used in the preparation of organic optoelectronic devices. However, due to the poor tunability of fullerene receptor electronic energy levels, difficulty in chemical structure modification and purification, and high production costs, fullerene receptors are not ideal in practical applications. The anisotropic optical response of current intrinsic polarization-sensitive photodetectors mainly comes from the directional arrangement of polymers. Quasi-spherically symmetrical PC 61 The BM structure does not achieve directional alignment and therefore does not contribute any optical anisotropy in its absorption band.

[0005] In recent years, significant progress has been made in the research and development of non-fullerene organic conjugated small molecules. 61Unlike fullerene-based organic conjugated small molecules, their stripe-like structure with varying aspect ratios allows for anisotropic molecular structures. Furthermore, these molecules offer advantages such as easy chemical modification, a wide spectral absorption range, and ease of preparation. These advantages effectively overcome the shortcomings of fullerene-based receptor materials, making them a highly efficient active layer material for photodetectors.

[0006] However, the orientation of non-fullerene organic conjugated small molecules and their application in the field of polarized light detectors has not been proposed or realized.

[0007] Therefore, attempts to orient optically active layers based on non-fullerene organic conjugated small molecules to make them anisotropic remain an unexplored topic. Summary of the Invention

[0135] Figure 5 Specific steps of the mechanical dragging method of Example 4 are shown.

[0136] Figure 6 Specific steps of the stretching orientation method of Example 5 are shown.

[0137] Test Example 1

[0138] The following tests were performed on the intrinsic polarization light detectors obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2.

[0139] The specific testing method of the absorption spectrum is well known to those skilled in the art.

[0140] The dichroic ratio is tested by placing linear polarizers with the same polarization angle at the light outlets of the UV-2550 UV spectrophotometer's sample and reference chambers, respectively. After baseline calibration, the test is performed. The sample's absorption over a range of wavelengths at different polarization angles is measured. When the polarization direction is parallel to the film's self-assembly direction (defined as parallel), the absorption intensity reaches its maximum. However, when the polarization direction is rotated 90°, perpendicular to the film's self-assembly direction (defined as perpendicular), the absorption intensity reaches its minimum. This indicates that the film exhibits anisotropy in optical absorption, with a polarization effect on light absorption.

[0141] The order parameters are introduced to quantify the degree of orientation of the film's molecular structure. The formula for calculating the dichroic ratio (D) is:

[0142] D=A / / / A ⊥

[0143] A ∥ and A ⊥ They represent the absorption values ​​when the polarization direction of polarized light in the absorption spectrum is parallel and perpendicular to the self-assembly direction of the film, respectively. The degree of order O can be calculated based on the dichroic ratio D at the absorption peak wavelength, and its calculation formula is:

[0144] O=(D-1) / (D+2)

[0145] The order degree O value is calculated based on it. If the value is closer to 0, the isotropy of the film is higher; if the order degree O value is closer to 1, the anisotropy of the film is higher.

[0146] The thin film absorption spectra of the optically active layers of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 are shown in FIG. Figure 7 (a)-(c) / Figure 7 As shown in (d)-(e). Figure 7 In (a)-(e), the solid line indicates the maximum absorption of linearly polarized light (polarization direction is parallel to the light), and the dotted line indicates the minimum absorption of linearly polarized light (polarization direction is perpendicular to the light).

[0147] The relevant data obtained are shown in Table 1.

[0148] Table 1 Test results of absorption spectra of intrinsic polarized light detectors obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2

[0149]

[0150]

[0151] As can be seen from Table 1, the polymer and rod-like organic conjugated small molecule blend films of Examples 1-3 exhibit optical anisotropy within the absorption spectrum of the polymer and the organic conjugated small molecule, respectively, and exhibit high order values. This indicates that the organic conjugated small molecules achieve directional alignment in the blend films.

[0152] However, the polymer and fullerene small molecule blend films in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 have optical anisotropy only within the absorption spectrum band of the polymer. Therefore, the quasi-spherically symmetrical fullerene small molecules do not contribute any optical anisotropy. This indicates that the fullerene small molecules do not achieve directional arrangement in the blend films, resulting in a low order value of the blend films, that is, a low degree of anisotropy.

[0153] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations that come within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be embraced therein.
