Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of aggregation-induced emission material preparation technology, and in particular to an aggregation-induced emission material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Fluorescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are simple light-absorbing, converting, and concentrating devices. They consist of a transparent thin plate with a high refractive index, into which a low concentration of light-emitting material (luminescent or fluorescent material) is embedded. The light-emitting material in an LSC absorbs most of the light in the solar radiation spectrum and then re-emits it at a longer wavelength through a photoluminescence (PL) process. Photoluminescence is a photochemical process that occurs in many optical and semiconductor organic and inorganic materials. Furthermore, in addition to including the fluorescent emitter in the host matrix, this system relies on optical waveguide principles and additional peripheral photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert fluorescent photons into electrical energy, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency per unit area of the solar cell.
[0003] Because fluorescent materials exhibit self-absorption (i.e., the absorption and emission spectra overlap), and fluorescence undergoes multiple self-absorption processes during optical waveguide operation, the intensity reaching the device edge is significantly reduced during fluorescence transmission. Furthermore, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of fluorescent solar concentrators decreases substantially with increasing device size. Moreover, the efficiency of fluorescent solar concentrators is also affected by the fluorescence quantum yield of the fluorescent material itself. For example, molecules emitting red light (emission wavelength greater than 600 nm) have low fluorescence quantum yields and exhibit severe self-absorption. Therefore, how to achieve weak self-absorption and high fluorescence quantum yield in aggregation-induced emission materials to fabricate high-efficiency fluorescent solar concentrators has become a pressing technical challenge for those skilled in the art.

[0025] The Suziki coupling reaction was carried out at a temperature of 90–100 °C for a time of 12–36 h.

The fluorescent solar concentrator prepared using this aggregation-induced emission material overcomes the problem of low efficiency of existing fluorescent solar concentrators (low red light fluorescence quantum efficiency), especially the problem of efficiency decay caused by self-absorption phenomenon and size increase (that is, the fluorescent solar concentrator prepared in this invention has the advantages of high fluorescence quantum yield and weak self-absorption of red light).Figure 2 and Figure 6 ).
[0038] (2) This invention designs the molecular structure of the compound and modifies and replaces the electron donor and acceptor at different chemical sites (such as the position of the alkyl chain), thereby changing the molecular configuration and conformation of the aggregated state, thereby improving the fluorescence quantum efficiency of the molecule (compared to the solution state, the aggregated state can be improved by up to 20%), increasing the Stokes shift, and weakening self-absorption.
[0039] (3) The synthesis steps of the aggregation-induced emission material of the present invention are simple, which not only allows for efficient and large-scale preparation, but also results in aggregation-induced emission materials with high fluorescence quantum efficiency, large Stokes shift, wide visible light absorption spectrum, and excellent resistance to photobleaching. Figure 6 ).
[0040] (4) By measuring the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the fluorescent solar concentrator prepared in this invention, it was demonstrated that its efficiency decreases only slightly with increasing size. The large-size fluorescent solar concentrator (0.04 square meters) still maintains a photoelectric conversion efficiency of 1.7%.
[0041] (5) The fluorescent solar concentrator prepared in this invention is combined with the outer wall of the greenhouse for greenhouse plant cultivation. This can reduce the inhibitory effect of ultraviolet light on crop growth, improve the quality of transmitted light, promote crop photosynthesis, and increase agricultural crop yield.

[0109] Example 13
[0110] A greenhouse construction and plant cultivation process based on a fluorescent solar concentrator:
[0111] The fluorescent solar concentrator prepared in Example 11 was used to construct the glass of the greenhouse in the experimental group. The edges of the fluorescent solar concentrator were equipped with solar cells (including but not limited to monocrystalline silicon solar cells, polycrystalline silicon solar cells, perovskite solar cells, and preferably monocrystalline silicon solar cells). The solar panels were connected to a battery via a circuit to store the electrical energy generated by the fluorescent solar concentrator.
[0112] An experiment was conducted inside an artificial climate chamber simulating a glass greenhouse. The simulated greenhouse had dimensions of 30cm in length, 20cm in width, and an area of 600cm². 2 White light intensity 200 μmolm -2 s -1 Two UVA (340nm, 8W) and one UVB (311nm, 15W) ultraviolet light sources were added. The temperature was 26℃ during the light exposure period and 24℃ during the darkness period, with a humidity of 55%.
[0113] The experimental crop was lettuce, and the seeds were purchased online. Four days after sowing, the seedlings germinated and were transplanted, one seedling per pot. These were placed under a simulated glass greenhouse, which was divided into two equal areas separated by black cardstock to create relatively independent experimental spaces. Two healthy seedlings of uniform growth were planted in each area. Water and fertilizer management was carried out according to standard procedures. To obtain more accurate experimental data, ordinary glass was used as the experimental cover (blank group), and two experimental groups were set up.
[0114] Fifteen days after sowing, plant growth was monitored and photographed. Finally, the fresh weight of lettuce was measured under each experimental condition, and the average value was calculated. The results are shown below. Figure 5 .
[0115] Compared with the control group, the fresh weight of lettuce in the experimental group increased by 41.13%, indicating that the greenhouse using the fluorescent solar concentrator prepared by this invention can improve the utilization rate of sunlight for crops and enhance their photosynthetic capacity. The greenhouse using the fluorescent solar concentrator prepared by this invention can convert some of the ultraviolet light that is detrimental to plant growth into orange-red light that is absorbed and utilized by chlorophyll a, b, and carotenoids. Figure 6 This improves the quality of transmitted light, promotes crop photosynthesis, and increases agricultural crop yields.
