Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of fluorescent materials, and particularly relates to a pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance, a preparation method thereof and uses thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the development of lighting technology, the research on LEDs has become more and more mature. At present, there are mainly two methods to obtain white LEDs: one is that a blue LED chip directly excites a yellow phosphor, and the light emitted by the two is mixed to form white light. This method is currently the most mature, but the white light obtained in this way lacks the red part, which will lead to poor color rendering of the emitted light and a relatively high color temperature. The other is that under the excitation of near-ultraviolet or ultraviolet light, the light emitted by three kinds of phosphors (red, blue, green) is mixed together to form white light. The white LEDs prepared by this excitation method have the advantages of high color rendering, high luminous efficiency, energy conservation and environmental protection, and can be applied to display, lighting and other aspects. The blue phosphors under near-ultraviolet light excitation are relatively few, and most of the phosphor technologies stay in the medium and long wavelength (green light, red light) emission bands. Due to the lack of the short wavelength blue light band, the overall application of LEDs still appears to be somewhat insufficient. Secondly, the main component of the blue LED chip, namely the blue light diode, also requires a blue phosphor for its light-emitting layer.

[0003] In summary, there is an urgent need to develop a phosphor with blue light performance at short wavelengths, which will have great market prospects and application values in the fields of photoluminescence and electroluminescence. Summary of the Invention

[0004] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance at short wavelengths.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A preparation method of a pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1. Weigh 2-fluorobenzoic acid and a pyrazolyl ligand and dissolve them in a solvent to obtain a mixed solution; weigh gallium chloride and mix it with the above mixed solution, and discharge the hydrogen chloride gas generated by the hydrolysis of gallium chloride to obtain a miscible mixture;

[0007] S2. Ultrasonically dissolve the miscible mixture in step S1 under a water bath condition, and then carry out a solvothermal reaction at 100-120 °C;

[0008] S3. After the reaction is completed, take out the miscible mixture and cool it, and place it at room temperature to wait for the solvent to slowly volatilize, and then pyrazolyl gallium oxide clusters with blue light performance can be precipitated.

[0009] As a further improvement of the preparation method of the pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance:

[0010] Preferably, the solvent in step S1 is N,N-dimethylformamide.

[0011] Preferably, in step S1, gallium chloride is weighed in a glove box under inert gas protection.

[0012] Preferably, the inert gas is nitrogen.

[0013] Preferably, the pyrazolyl ligand in step S1 is pyrazole or 4-methylpyrazole.

[0014] Preferably, the molar mass ratio of gallium chloride, 2-fluorobenzoic acid, and pyrazolyl ligand in step S1 is 1:(1-2):(3.1-13.3).

[0015] Preferably, in step S2, the temperature of the water bath condition is 20-25 °C, and ultrasonic dissolution is carried out for 20-30 min under the water bath condition.

[0016] Preferably, the time of the solvothermal reaction in step S2 is 72-84 h.

[0017] The second object of the present invention is to provide a pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance prepared by the preparation method of any one of the above.

[0018] The third object of the present invention is to provide the use of the above-mentioned pyrazolyl gallium oxide cluster with blue light performance in a fluorescent light-emitting device.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0020] 1) The present invention uses a pyrazolyl ligand, 2-fluorobenzoic acid, and gallium chloride as raw materials. By studying the synthesis and luminescence properties of pyrazolyl ligand clusters, a fluorescent light-emitting compound with excellent fluorescence quantum yield is prepared by a solvothermal reaction synthesis method. The pyrazolyl ligand (pyrazole, 4-methylpyrazole) has a pyrazole five-membered ring, contains an electron conjugate system and strong π-π* absorption transitions, and has the possibility of emitting strong fluorescence. At the same time, the nitrogen atom of the pyrazolyl ligand has rich and diverse coordination abilities, and can form metal clusters with novel structures of different dimensions with metal ions. The fluorine in 2-fluorobenzoic acid and the nitrogen in the pyrazolyl ligand have strong electron-withdrawing abilities, and can form hydrogen bonds or generate π-π stacking / C-H...π interactions between clusters. On the one hand, this promotes the aggregation and crystallization of clusters, and on the other hand, it enhances the charge transfer between clusters and ligands, thereby affecting the luminescence intensity or fluorescence performance. The blue fluorescence luminescence intensity of the clusters can be improved by adjusting the content of 2-fluorobenzoic acid and the content of the pyrazolyl ligand, and at the same time, it is beneficial to the crystallization of the clusters.

[0021] 2) The preparation method of the present invention provides a rich material basis for the fabrication of light-emitting devices. The solvothermal reaction synthesis method is easy to operate, has sufficient raw material sources, low production costs, and high yields and purities of cluster synthesis, making it suitable for the requirements of large-scale production.

[0022] 3) The components of the target product prepared by the present invention were analyzed by EDS energy spectrum. The main constituent elements of the prepared target product include gallium, carbon, chlorine, nitrogen, and oxygen. The maximum excitation wavelength of the prepared gallium oxide clusters was measured by an Edinburgh FLS-1000 steady-state fluorescence spectrometer to be in the range of 359 - 361 nm, and there was a strong emission in the nearby blue light region of 433 - 436 nm. The absolute quantum yield of the product was 15.01% - 17.70%. The pyrazolyl gallium clusters with blue light properties prepared by the present invention are a new type of fluorescent light-emitting material and can be used for making the light-emitting layer of blue fluorescent light-emitting devices and anti-counterfeiting labels, etc. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
