Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of quantum dot nanomaterial preparation. Specifically, it relates to a reaction device and method for producing narrow-band luminescent indium phosphide quantum dots; more specifically, it relates to a method for producing InP / ZnSeS / ZnS core-shell quantum dots and a supergravity-coupled photothermal reaction device. Background Art
[0002] The essence of chemical preparation of indium phosphide (InP) quantum dots is to achieve precise and controllable collisions, splittings, and rearrangements of 20-200 atoms at the macroscale of a reactor, which places extremely high demands on the coordination of nanoscale transport and reaction. Hot injection is currently the most mature method for preparing InP quantum dots. Using tri(trimethylsilyl)phosphine [TMS)3P] as the P source and indium carboxylate as the In source, InP quantum dots with excellent optical properties can be obtained. However, batch production is limited. Solvothermal methods offer advantages in achieving large-scale preparation of InP quantum dots. Using tri(dimethylamino)phosphine [DMA)3P] as the P source, InX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) as the In source, and oleylamine as the solvent, InP nanocrystals of varying sizes can be obtained by varying the ratios of different halogen elements. However, existing liquid-phase precipitation combined with solvothermal growth methods struggle to achieve precise control over the nucleation and growth of InP quantum dots due to limitations in molecular mixing rates within conventional stirred-tank reactors.
[0003] A supergravity reactor is a typical chemical process intensification equipment, in which the liquid medium inside flows in a porous medium in a supergravity environment that is hundreds to thousands of times larger than the earth's gravity field, and is torn into micron-scale or even nanoscale membranes, filaments and droplets (that is, a large number of rapidly updated "micro-droplet reactors" are produced), so that the molecular diffusion, microscopic mixing and mass transfer processes between molecules of different sizes are greatly enhanced. In the supergravity reactor, the microscopic molecular mixing and mass transfer processes are greatly enhanced, and the nanocrystal nucleation and growth process is carried out in a microscopically uniform ideal environment, which can form explosive uniform nucleation of nanocrystals, which is conducive to obtaining nanoparticles with small particle size and narrow distribution. For example, Chinese Patent Application No. 202110642064.1 discloses a method for preparing InP@ZnS core-shell quantum dots by a supergravity reactor and the resulting InP@ZnS core-shell quantum dots. However, the preparation of quantum dots in the InP system requires the use of external energy to break through the crystal nucleation energy barrier in order to stimulate the nucleation reaction of the precursor. Due to the existence of uneven heat flow in traditional high-gravity reactors, it is difficult to achieve explosive and uniform nucleation of InP crystal nuclei in an ideal state, resulting in poor uniformity of the product particle size distribution. The half-peak width of the resulting InP quantum dot emission spectrum is mostly above 50nm. Summary of the Invention

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects :
[0044] 1) The proposed high-gravity photothermal coupling reaction system uses the liquid medium obtained through the high-gravity shearing device as a "micro-droplet reactor." Within the high-gravity reactor, microscopic molecular mixing and mass transfer processes are greatly enhanced. Nanocrystal nucleation and growth occur in a microscopically uniform and ideal environment, resulting in explosive and uniform nucleation of nanocrystals, which is beneficial for obtaining nanoparticles with small size and narrow particle size distribution. Furthermore, an infrared laser is coupled into the high-gravity reactor. A solvent medium such as water or organic matter absorbs the infrared light and converts it into heat, raising its temperature. This stimulates the nucleation reaction of the reactant precursors within the "micro-droplet reactor," achieving controlled growth of quantum dots within the micro-droplet reactor. Finally, uniformly sized nanoparticles are obtained by controlling the laser irradiation and heating time.

The fluid distributor 5 is fixed in the center of the reaction chamber and sprays the reaction material into the entire space.
[0084] An annular shear filler 4 is provided on the turntable 3, and a filler cover 7 is fixedly covered on the top of the shear filler 4; a hollow reaction chamber 6 is formed between the turntable 3, the shear filler 4 and the filler cover 7;
[0085] A liquid outlet 9 is provided on the bottom of the housing 1;
[0086] In the present invention, there are two liquid inlets, including a first liquid inlet 11 and a second liquid inlet 12. The liquid inlet passes through the shell 1 and the packing cover 7 to communicate with the reaction chamber 6; a gas outlet 8 is provided on the top of the shell 1;
[0087] The photothermal device includes a laser heating device 21, a circuit and water cooling device 22, a reflective layer 23 and a laser controller 24;
[0088] The reflective layer 23 is arranged on the inner surface of the shell 1, and an interlayer is provided between the reflective layer 23 and the shell 1, and a circuit and a water cooling device 22 are provided in the interlayer; the laser heating device 21 is arranged on the inner surface of the reflective layer 23, and the laser heating device 21 is connected to the laser controller 24 through the circuit in the interlayer.
[0089] In some embodiments of the present invention, the filler cap is made of a transparent material to allow the laser to pass through as much as possible.
[0090] In some embodiments of the present invention, a turntable is fixed on the output shaft of the motor and drives the turntable to rotate.
[0091] In certain embodiments of the present invention, the laser heating device includes one or more devices, which can be installed or removed as needed; the laser heating device uses a laser controller to control the power of the laser heating.
[0092] In certain embodiments of the present invention, the laser heating device is a laser with a wavelength of 980-1500 nm; the laser heating device uses a water cooling system to ensure the normal operating temperature of the laser.
[0093] In some embodiments of the present invention, the power of the laser heating device is 20-500W.
[0094] The present invention couples an infrared laser into a high-gravity reactor, utilizing a solvent medium such as water or organic matter to absorb the infrared light and convert it into heat, raising its temperature and stimulating the nucleation reaction of the reactant precursors within the "droplet reactor." Because infrared light heating utilizes the principle of electromagnetic radiation heat transfer, it directly transfers heat to stimulate the reaction, thus avoiding the energy loss caused by heating air. This not only saves energy but also is fast and efficient. Furthermore, infrared light has a certain penetrating power. The solvent medium within and on the surface of the "droplet reactor" absorbs the infrared radiation energy simultaneously at a certain depth, generating heat uniformly. This promotes uniform nucleation and growth of particles within the droplets, facilitating the production of high-quality nanoparticle products. The high-gravity coupled photothermal reactor, formed by the fusion of high-gravity and photothermal technologies, can greatly facilitate mass transfer. The interfacial reflection and scattering effects of a large number of microdroplets can more evenly distribute the light radiation throughout the high-gravity reactor cavity, improving the absorption and utilization of the light radiation energy. This approach overcomes the difficulty of achieving uniform heat distribution at higher temperatures in conventional high-gravity reactors and can be used to produce narrow-band luminescent indium phosphide quantum dots with a half-width less than 50 nm. As a sustainable energy source, the utilization of light energy has received close attention from researchers. Photothermal conversion is a ubiquitous energy conversion process in nature and human-developed systems. Due to its potential applications such as photothermal therapy, photothermal conversion has been widely studied. With the rapid development of nanotechnology in recent years, photothermal conversion at the micro-nano scale has received attention in many fields and played a key role. Since infrared light heating uses the principle of electromagnetic radiation heat transfer to transfer heat in a direct manner to achieve the purpose of stimulating the reaction, it avoids the energy loss caused by heating the air, which not only saves energy but also is fast and efficient. In addition, infrared rays have a certain penetrating ability, and the internal and surface solvent media of a certain depth of the "droplet reactor" absorb infrared radiation energy at the same time, generating heat evenly, which promotes the uniform nucleation and growth of particles in the droplets, and is conducive to obtaining high-quality nanoparticle products, such as Figure 3 shown.
[0095] The supergravity-coupled photothermal reactor formed by the fusion of supergravity technology and photothermal technology can greatly promote the mass transfer process. The interface reflection and scattering effects of a large number of microdroplets can make the light radiation more evenly distributed in the entire supergravity reactor cavity, thereby improving the absorption and utilization of light radiation energy.

[0139] InP / ZnS quantum dots were synthesized in a supergravity reactor without a coupled photothermal device. The motor was started and the speed was set to 1500 r / min. The InP core Zn precursor mixed oil phase precursor and sodium sulfide nonahydrate aqueous phase precursor were preheated respectively. The precursors were introduced into the supergravity device through a peristaltic pump. The heat from the preheated precursors was used to fully react under supergravity conditions for 30 minutes. Samples were taken at regular intervals and their luminescence properties were tested.
[0140] Figure 13 This is the emission spectrum of the obtained InP / ZnS core-shell quantum dots, which have an emission peak at 613 nm, orange light, a half-peak width of 88 nm, and a quantum yield of 7.38%.
[0141] Comparative Example 2
[0142] Example 1 was repeated except that the rotation speed of the high-gravity rotating packed bed reactor was set to 500 rpm, samples were taken at different reaction times, and the rest of the reaction process and conditions remained unchanged.
[0143] Figure 14 The graph of the quantum yield of the obtained InP / ZnSeS / ZnS core-shell quantum dots changes with time. The quantum dots have the highest quantum yield when the reaction is 30 minutes.
[0144] Comparative Example 3
[0145] Example 1 was repeated, except that the rotation speed of the high gravity rotating packed bed reactor was set to 500 rpm, and the ratio of selenium powder to sulfur powder was changed from 0:1 to 2:1.
[0146] Figure 15 Figure 2 is the fluorescence spectrum of the obtained InP / ZnSeS / ZnS core-shell quantum dots. When the ratio is 0.5:1, the obtained InP / ZnSeS / ZnS core-shell quantum dots have the highest quantum yield of 79.86% and the narrowest half-peak width of 58 nm.
[0147] Comparative Example 4
[0148] Example 1 was repeated, except that the molar ratio of indium ions in the indium precursor to the phosphine precursor was changed from 1:3 to 1:7 to synthesize only InP cores.
[0149] Figure 16 The UV-visible absorption spectrum of the obtained InP quantum dots is shown in Figure 2. As the amount of phosphine precursor increases, the first exciton peak of the quantum dots becomes less and less obvious, indicating that the size uniformity of the quantum dots deteriorates.
[0150] Comparative Example 5
[0151] Example 1 was repeated, except that the molar ratio of indium ions in the indium precursor to the phosphine precursor was 1:2, and only InP cores were synthesized.
[0152] The color of the solution obtained at this time is very light, indicating that the content of phosphine precursor is too low, making nucleation difficult.
