Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of perovskite high-energy particle detection, and in particular relates to a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Muons are high-energy charged particles produced by the interaction of cosmic rays with the atmosphere. Muons lose less energy when passing through matter, which means that muons interact weakly with matter, making them difficult to detect. In addition, the average lifetime of a muon is 2.2 microseconds. Due to the short decay time of a muon, the number of muons that can be detected is limited.

[0003] Existing muon detectors mainly include scintillator detectors and gas ionization chamber detectors. Scintillators have the advantages of easy machining, flexible structural design and rapid signal readout, so scintillator detectors can meet the needs of various measurement and application scenarios. However, when measuring muon energy, scintillator detectors are affected by factors such as the characteristics of the scintillator material and the optical signal collection process, which makes the energy resolution of scintillator detectors relatively limited. In addition, the long scintillation lifetime of scintillator materials limits the ability to accurately measure muon signals with fast time structures. Gas ionization chamber detectors have the advantages of simple structure, large detection area and low cost. However, due to the complexity of the gas system in the gas ionization chamber detector, it is difficult to achieve long-term stable detection. Summary of the invention

[0006] As a second aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction is provided, comprising: preparing a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer by a solution method; growing APbBr on the surface of the MAPbBr3 perovskite layer; n X1-n Perovskite layer, MAPbBr3 titanium layer and APbBr n X 1-n The perovskite layer constitutes a perovskite heterojunction layer; a first electrode material is deposited on one side of the perovskite heterojunction layer to form a first electrode layer, and a second electrode material is deposited on the other side of the perovskite heterojunction layer to form a second electrode layer, thereby obtaining a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction; wherein 0<n≤3, A includes at least one of formamidinium ions, methylamine ions, and cesium ions, and X includes at least one of chloride ions and iodine ions.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction and a preparation method thereof provided by the present invention have at least one of the following beneficial effects.

[0008] (1) In the embodiments of the present invention, the muon detector based on the perovskite heterojunction provided by the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the detector) is essentially an ionization chamber whose working medium is a solid. The heavy atoms in the perovskite heterojunction layer are ionized into electron-hole pairs under the action of muons, and the electrons and holes migrate to generate electrical signals to detect muons. The perovskite heterojunction structure can promote the separation of carriers and reduce the recombination of electron-hole pairs, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the detector. The perovskite heterojunction layer is composed of a higher density MAPbBr3 perovskite layer and an APbBr n X 1-n The perovskite layer allows the perovskite heterojunction layer to interact more with muons, thereby improving the detection efficiency; the average ionization energy of carriers in the perovskite heterojunction layer is only 1 / 10 of that of the gas, so it has a higher energy resolution and better energy linear response than the gas ionization chamber detector; the perovskite heterojunction layer has a relatively fast carrier transmission speed and a short lifetime, which enables it to provide a fast signal response, which is very important for measuring time-related information such as the arrival time and decay time of muons.

[0009] (2) In an embodiment of the present invention, a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer is prepared by a solution method, and an APbBr is grown thereon. n X 1-n Perovskite layer, MAPbBr3 titanium layer and APbBr n X 1-n The perovskite layer constitutes a perovskite heterojunction layer. Since the muon flux is low, a detector with a larger area needs to be set to detect muons. The present invention grows a perovskite heterojunction layer by a solution method to grow a larger area, uniform, and higher quality perovskite heterojunction layer to achieve large-area detection of muons. The preparation method of the muon detector based on the perovskite heterojunction provided by the present invention has the advantages of low cost, easier preparation, and easy large-area detection.

[0016] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Muons are high-energy charged particles that have the characteristics of strong penetrating power and small interaction with matter. Currently commonly used muon detectors mainly include scintillator detectors and gas ionization chamber detectors. The gas system in the gas ionization chamber detector is relatively complex, and it is difficult to maintain the long-term stability of the detector performance under changing temperature and pressure environments; the long scintillation lifetime of the scintillator material in the scintillator detector limits the ability to accurately measure the muon signal with a fast time structure. Based on this, the present invention provides a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction, which is essentially an ionization chamber with a solid working medium, and has the advantages of good energy resolution, fast time response, small size, low operating voltage and current, and high linear response.

[0019] As a first aspect of the present invention, a muon detector based on a perovskite heterojunction is provided, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a first electrode layer 20, a perovskite heterojunction layer 10 and a second electrode layer 30 stacked from bottom to top; wherein the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 includes a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer 11 and an APbBr n X 1-nPerovskite layer 12, 0<n≤3, A includes at least one of formamidinium ion, methylamine ion, and cesium ion, and X includes at least one of chloride ion and iodine ion; heavy atoms in the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 are ionized into electron-hole pairs under the action of muons, and electrons and holes migrate to generate electrical signals to realize the detection of muons.

[0020] In the embodiment of the present invention, the muon detector based on the perovskite heterojunction provided by the present invention is essentially an ionization chamber whose working medium is a solid. The heavy atoms in the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 are ionized into electron-hole pairs under the action of muons, and the electrons and holes migrate to generate electrical signals to detect muons. The perovskite heterojunction structure can promote the separation of carriers and reduce the recombination of electron-hole pairs, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the detector. The perovskite heterojunction layer 10 is composed of a relatively high-density MAPbBr3 perovskite layer 11 and an APbBr n X 1-n The perovskite layer 12 enables the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 to interact more with muons, thereby improving the detection efficiency; the average ionization energy of carriers in the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 is only 1 / 10 of that of the gas, so it has a higher energy resolution and a better energy linear response; the perovskite heterojunction layer 10 has a relatively fast carrier transmission speed and a short lifetime, so it can provide a fast signal response, which is very important for measuring time-related information such as the arrival time and decay time of muons.

[0021] According to an embodiment of the present invention, continue as Figure 1 As shown, the above muon detector based on perovskite heterojunction further includes: an electron transport layer 13 and a hole transport layer 14, the electron transport layer 13 and the hole transport layer 14 are independent and located on different sides of the perovskite heterojunction layer. Figure 1 The positions of the electron transport layer 13 and the hole transport layer 14 are only illustrative, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The positions of the electron transport layer 13 and the hole transport layer 14 depend on the specific detector performance requirements and the properties of the perovskite material. The electron transport material and the hole transport material that are selectively used and matched with the energy level of the perovskite heterojunction layer, and the presence of the electron transport layer 13 and the hole transport layer 14 can improve the efficiency and response of the detector. The main function of the electron transport layer 13 is to promote the transmission and collection of electrons generated by the interaction of muons with the perovskite heterojunction layer 10. The main function of the hole transport layer 14 is to promote the transmission and collection of holes generated by the interaction of muons with the perovskite heterojunction layer 10. The first electrode layer 20 and the second electrode layer 30 are respectively located on the side of the hole transport layer 14 and the electron transport layer 13 away from the perovskite heterojunction layer 10, and the electrons and holes are respectively transmitted to the second electrode layer 30 and the first electrode layer 20 through the electron transport layer 13 and the hole transport layer 14, generating electrical signals and transmitting the electrical signals to the outside world.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present invention, a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer is prepared by a solution process, and an APbBr is grown thereon. n X 1-n Perovskite layer, MAPbBr3 titanium layer and APbBr n X 1-n The perovskite layer constitutes a perovskite heterojunction layer. Since the muon flux is low, a detector with a larger area needs to be set to detect muons. The present invention grows a perovskite heterojunction layer by a solution method to grow a larger area, uniform, and higher quality perovskite heterojunction layer to achieve large-area detection of muons. The preparation method of the muon detector based on the perovskite heterojunction provided by the present invention has the advantages of low cost, easier preparation, and easy large-area detection.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, preparing a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer by a solution method includes: adding methylamine bromide and lead bromide to N,N-dimethylformamide at a molar ratio of 1:0.7-1 and mixing them evenly to obtain a first precursor solution; placing a MAPbBr3 seed crystal in the first precursor solution, and growing a MAPbBr3 perovskite layer by heating. Wherein, MAPbBr3 is a single crystal. The concentration of methylamine bromide and lead bromide in the first precursor solution is 1-1.5mmol / L.

[0025] According to an embodiment of the present invention, MAPbBr3 seed crystals are obtained by the following method: a first precursor solution is heated at 60-80°C for 20-50 minutes for crystallization, and crystals with regular morphology are selected as MAPbBr3 seed crystals. The first precursor solution from which the MAPbBr3 seed crystals are grown can be filtered and then the MAPbBr3 single crystals can be grown, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The key to manufacturing a muon detector with excellent performance is to prepare a larger, uniform and high-quality perovskite heterolayer structure. The growth and crystallization process of perovskite crystals in solution is often difficult to achieve precise control. The use of the ligand bromoacetic acid to assist growth to obtain a perovskite heterojunction structure has low preparation costs and simple preparation processes. Bromoacetic acid (C2H3BrO2) reacts with the solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to form aldehyde acid, and the carbonyl group in the aldehyde acid can react with Pb in the second precursor solution. 2+ A stronger complexation is formed, thereby inhibiting nucleation, delaying crystallization, and obtaining perovskite crystals of better quality.

It should be noted that the thickness of each structural layer in the muon detector based on the perovskite heterojunction is set according to the actual application requirements. For example, the thickness of the perovskite heterojunction layer is 1-10mm, the thickness of the electron transport layer is 5-80nm, the thickness of the hole transport layer is 5-80nm, the thickness of the first electrode layer is 40-150nm, and the thickness of the second electrode layer is 40-150nm.
