Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of quantum dot light-converting agricultural films, and in particular to a rare earth-doped quantum dot composite light-converting agricultural film and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a sustainable agricultural production method that continues to grow and develop with the process of agricultural modernization, facility agriculture has become an important symbol of modern agriculture. Agricultural greenhouse films are widely used in vegetable greenhouses, spring arch greenhouses and solar greenhouses in China. As an important measure to promote agricultural production and realize agricultural modernization, it has been recognized and has become an important part of implementing plastic cultivation and other related fields in my country's agricultural production, and has achieved significant economic benefits. As an emerging controlled functional agricultural film, light-converting agricultural film not only has high light transmittance and good temperature regulation effect, but also can efficiently convert ultraviolet rays into blue-violet light or red-orange light that promotes plant growth, improving light energy utilization and plant photosynthesis efficiency. This can significantly increase production, advance harvest time, and improve product quality.

[0003] Based on this, it is extremely important to select suitable light-converting materials to prepare agricultural films. Quantum dots exhibit optical properties of narrow linewidth and high luminescence efficiency, making them ideal single-photon sources. The most obvious advantage of quantum dots is that they have a size effect, that is, by changing the size of quantum dots, a continuously adjustable emission spectrum can be obtained. By selecting specific components and sizes, these particles can emit light in a very wide continuously adjustable spectral range, but the light conversion efficiency of existing quantum dot light-converting agricultural films and the luminescence intensity of quantum dots are relatively low, which limits their application in the agricultural field.

Quantum dots have a wide absorption spectrum. The absorption spectrum of organic molecules usually contains one or several absorption bands, while the absorption spectrum cross-section of quantum dots is much larger than that of organic dyes and gradually increases at higher energy, which is conducive to the absorption of ultraviolet rays. Quantum dots are inorganic materials and are not prone to oxidation reactions and water vapor corrosion, so they have ultra-high light and thermal stability.
