Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of ionizing radiation detection, and particularly relates to a perovskite ABX3Brx-based sub-nanosecond scintillation material based on X-site Br doping and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The scintillation material is mainly applied to positron emission tomography (PET-CT) and detection of fast pulsed rays (such as fast neutrons, gamma rays and alpha ions).

[0003] As the core material of a positron emission tomography instrument, the scintillation material can capture a small amount of gamma rays generated by a tracer in the human body, and the intensity and position of the signal are analyzed by the positron emission tomography instrument, so as to obtain the metabolic rate of a specific position of the human body. Cells with lesions usually have a higher metabolic rate than ordinary cells, so the signal at the lesion is particularly strong, thereby accurately locating the lesion position of the human body, which can be used for early diagnosis and treatment of cancer tumors in the medical field.

[0004] High-energy fast neutrons hit and penetrate the scintillation material, excite visible fluorescence of the scintillation material, and the signal is collected and stored by an optical system, so that pulsed fast neutron imaging can be realized.

[0005] CsPbCl3 is a colorless transparent crystal in the atmosphere, with a band gap of 2.90eV, and is a wide band gap semiconductor with good absorption capacity for ultraviolet radiation, and is a very potential ultraviolet detection material. In terms of ray detection performance, the resolution of a semiconductor ray detector based on a CsPbCl3 crystal to a 122keV gamma ray can reach 16%, and has potential application in the field of ray detection. Since this material is a direct band gap material, it is expected to be applied as a scintillation material in the field of ray detection and medical imaging.

[0006] However, the CsPbCl3 material has a free exciton luminescence property at room temperature, and the luminescence decay time is much higher than 1ns, although it has a sub-nanosecond decay phenomenon under low-temperature ultraviolet excitation, but the low-temperature condition limits its application as a scintillation material in the field of ray detection. Therefore, how to obtain a CsPbCl3 material with sub-nanosecond scintillation characteristics at room temperature is a challenge. SUMMARY

[0007] In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the application provides an ABX3Brx-based sub-nanosecond scintillation material and a preparation method and application thereof. The scintillation material has a sub-nanosecond decay time at room temperature, and can be applied as an ultrafast scintillation material in the fields of PET-CT and ultrafast pulsed rays.

[0008] The application is implemented by the following technical solutions:

[0009] An ABX3Brx-based sub-nanosecond scintillation material, having a molecular formula of ABX3Br x Wherein, A is one alkali metal element or a combination of multiple alkali metal elements in the I main group; B is one element or a combination of multiple elements in the IV main group; X is one element or a combination of multiple elements in the VIIA group; x = 0.01-0.03.

[0010] Preferably, A is one or a combination of two of Cs and Rb.

[0011] Preferably, B is one or a combination of multiple of Si, Sn, Ge and Pb.

[0012] Preferably, X is one or a combination of multiple of F, Cl and Br.

[0013] Preferably, the ABX3Br x is CsPbCl3Br x .

[0014] The preparation method of the ABX3Brx-based sub-nanosecond scintillation material, comprising:

[0015] S1, taking ABr, adding liquid bromine, ABr reacts with liquid bromine to obtain ABr3;

[0016] S2, using a solid phase method or a solution method to make AX, ABr3 and BX2 react to prepare ABX3Br x material.

[0017] Further, S1 specifically is: taking powder ABr, adding liquid bromine, making liquid bromine submerge powder ABr, ABr reacts with liquid bromine, after the reaction is completed, removing excess unreacted Br vapor to obtain powder ABr3.

[0018] Further, in S2, the ABX3Br x material is prepared by using a solid phase method, specifically comprising:

[0019] The mixture of AX, ABr3 and BX2 after mixing is put into a container, the container is vacuumed and sealed;

[0020] The mixture is heated and treated, and a polycrystalline CsPbCl3Br x material is obtained.

[0021] Further, in S2, further comprising: heating the polycrystalline CsPbCl3Br x material to a first temperature, and then gradually cooling to grow a single crystal to obtain a single crystal CsPbCl3Br x material.

[0022] The ABX3Brx-based sub-nanosecond scintillation material is applied to positron emission tomography or ultrafast pulsed radiation detection.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the application has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The application provides an ABX3Br x x-based sub-nanosecond ultrafast scintillation material, which is obtained by over-doping Br elements on the basis of ABX3. The over-doping of Br elements can optimize the scintillation performance of the ABX3 material, improve the photoluminescence intensity of the material, and eliminate the existence of slow-decay components in the luminescent components. The over-doping of Br elements can sharply shorten the radiation luminescence decay time of the material at room temperature from nanoseconds to sub-nanoseconds or less, so that the fluorescence decay time at room temperature reaches the sub-nanosecond level. Therefore, the ABX3Br x x-based sub-nanosecond ultrafast scintillation material has ultrafast scintillation characteristics at room temperature, and is expected to be applied to the fields of PET-CT and ultrafast pulsed radiation. The application is a full-inorganic perovskite-based scintillator, and the full-inorganic components can improve the problems of instability and easy deliquescence of traditional scintillators in the atmosphere, thereby providing some possibilities for the service environment of the scintillator in the future.

[0025] The application provides an ABX3Br x x-based sub-nanosecond ultrafast scintillation material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method adopts a mild growth scheme to prepare ABr3 polycrystals, and introduces ABr3 into existing materials AX and BX2, so that the over-doping of Br elements is realized, and the ABX3Br x x-based sub-nanosecond ultrafast scintillation material is obtained. The application has low raw material cost.

[0026] Further, the application is synthesized by using a solid phase method, and vacuum sealing can avoid some dust in the atmosphere from entering the system, so that high-quality scintillator materials suitable for radiation detection are finally obtained. The application can also prepare polycrystalline or single-crystal ABX3Br x materials according to needs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0100] Table 1 combines Figure 6 , it can be seen that after Br excessive doping, the lattice of the material slightly expands. From the lattice constant and cell volume change graph of CsPbCl3BrFigure 6 It can be seen that, compared with undoped CsPbCl3, the CsPbCl3Br x In the CsPbCl3Br

[0103] Figure 9 The Stokes shift diagram of the prepared material, with the increase of Br doping amount, the Stokes shift gradually increases, and the self-absorption decreases.

[0104] Figure 10 The fluorescence decay time comparison chart of the prepared material and CsPbCl3 can be seen that the fluorescence lifetime of the Br doped sample is obviously shortened, and the fluorescence decay time reaches sub-nanosecond level, showing superfast flash characteristics, proving that the scheme of shortening the fluorescence lifetime of CsPbCl3 by Br over-doping is feasible.

[0105] Figure 11 The CsPbCl3Br x The TG-DSC data chart obtained by the simultaneous thermal analysis test of CsPbCl3Br It can be seen that the melting point of undoped CsPbCl3 crystal is 604.48℃, and the freezing point is 586.10℃. After over-doping, the melting point of the material slightly increases, which is 606.77℃, 605.54℃ and 605.42℃ respectively, and the freezing point also increases, which is 588.82℃, 583.65℃ and 596.15℃ respectively. It is found that the doping can slightly change the melting point and freezing point of the material, but the change of the melting point and freezing point is not the linear change expected by the present application. What is important is that there is no phase change between the melting point and the ambient temperature of the compound, which is beneficial to obtain high quality single crystal. From room temperature to decomposition temperature, the curve does not show obvious endothermic or exothermic peak, indicating that the material has no significant phase change in this temperature range, indicating that even if the material is over-doped with Br, the structure of the material still has good stability.

[0106] Figure 12 The Br substitution doping product CsPbBr prepared in Comparative Examples 1-2 of this invention 0.6 Cl 2.4 CsPbBr 2.7 Cl 0.3 The fluorescence decay time was obtained from transient fluorescence spectroscopy. The figure shows that CsPbBr... 0.6 Cl 2.4 CsPbBr 2.7 Cl 0.3 The fluorescence decay times of the products are all in the nanosecond range. Compared with the fluorescence decay time of the Br-substituted doped product, the fluorescence decay time of the product obtained by Br overdoping in this invention is even shorter, reaching the sub-nanosecond level. Figure 10 The results showed that the fluorescence lifetime of CsPbCl3 was shortened by Br overdoping relative to Br substitution doping.
