Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optoelectronic materials, and in particular to a preparation method of cesium copper iodide nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite materials. Background Art

[0002] Zero-dimensional lead-free cesium copper iodide nanocrystals (Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs) have broad application prospects in optoelectronic fields such as light-emitting diodes, ultraviolet photodetectors, X-ray imaging, and anti-counterfeiting technology due to their high emission stability, low self-absorption, relatively low toxicity, and earth-abundant components.

[0003] Currently, the preparation of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs materials has made great progress, but there are still the following problems: 1) The insufficient synthesis reaction of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs and the difficulty in controlling the crystal size, morphology, and uniformity are still the main obstacles to device performance. Especially for Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 bulk crystals synthesized by solid-state methods have limitations in controlling their uniformity and morphology; 2) Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs have poor air stability. Usually, moisture / oxygen can cause the decomposition / oxidation of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs, and even phase transformation occurs to convert into CsCu 2 I 3 with low fluorescence quantum yield. Therefore, it is necessary to develop Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs with uniform size, morphology, and high stability to achieve better optoelectronic applications. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a preparation method of cesium copper iodide nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite materials for the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, which achieves the purpose of obtaining high-quality Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs with uniform size and morphology, and realizes the application of nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite materials in X-ray scintillators.

[0005] The above object of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] S1: After mixing cuprous iodide, zinc iodide, oleic acid, oleylamine and octadecene, the temperature is raised until cuprous iodide is completely dissolved to obtain a copper iodide precursor solution;

[0008] S2: In the copper iodide precursor solution obtained in S1, a preheated cesium oleate precursor solution is added, and after the reaction ends, through post-treatment, a Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 nanocrystal solution is obtained;

[0009] S3: In the Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 nanocrystal solution obtained in S2, an EVA organic solution is added and mixed to obtain a cesium copper iodide nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite material.

[0010] Further, in S1, the mass-volume ratio of cuprous iodide, zinc iodide, oleic acid, oleylamine and octadecene is (0.10~0.20) g: (0~2.55) g: (0.60~1.00) mL: (0.80~1.20) mL: (10~20) mL.

[0011] Further, in S1, cuprous iodide, zinc iodide, oleic acid, oleylamine and octadecene are added to a reaction vessel and mixed. After exhausting the air, the temperature is first raised to 100~130 °C. After the temperature is stabilized, the temperature is further raised to 150~180 °C until cuprous iodide is completely dissolved to obtain a copper iodide precursor solution.

[0012] Further, in S2, the cesium oleate precursor solution is prepared from raw materials including cesium carbonate, oleic acid and octadecene.

[0014] Still further, in S2, the mass-volume ratio of cesium carbonate, oleic acid and octadecene is (0.60~0.80) g: (2.50~3.50) mL: (5~10) mL.

[0015] Further, in the step S2, into the copper iodide precursor solution obtained in the step S1, a cesium oleate precursor solution preheated to 100-140 °C is added. After reacting for 20-40 s, it is stirred and cooled to 10-30 °C. The precipitate is collected by centrifugation and dispersed in an organic solvent, and then the supernatant is collected by centrifugation to obtain a Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 nanocrystal solution.

[0016] Furthermore, in the step S2, the centrifugation speed is controlled to be 6000-10000 rpm / min and the time is 3-6 min, and the organic solvent is toluene, octane or cyclohexane.

[0017] Further, in the step S3, the organic solvent is toluene, octane or cyclohexane, and the mass-volume ratio of EVA to the organic solvent is (1.8-2.2) g:(5-15) mL. The volume ratio of the EVA organic solution to the Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 nanocrystal solution is (0.8-1.2):(1.0-5.0).

[0018] Further, in the step S3, first EVA is dissolved in the organic solvent to obtain a colloidal EVA organic solution, and then it is dispersed in the Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 nanocrystal solution obtained in the step S2 and mixed to obtain a cesium copper iodide nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite material. When in use, the cesium copper iodide nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite material is transferred to a petri dish and slowly evaporated at room temperature in a fume hood to prepare a nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite film for X-ray scintillator imaging.

[0022] 3. The nanocrystal-embedded polymer composite material prepared by the present invention has a good response to the X-ray tube voltage, and shows a good linearity in the response to the X-ray dose rate. Under the irradiation of X-rays at 50 keV, the composite film can distinguish a test area with a spatial resolution as high as 15.7 lp mm -1 and has a low detection limit (0.31 μGy air s -1 ), which is about 18 times lower than the standard medical examination dose (5.5 μGy air s -1 ).
