[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application. In addition, it should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.
[0025] In this application, unless otherwise stated, directional words such as "upper" and "lower" generally refer to the upper and lower parts of the device in actual use or working state, specifically the drawing direction in the accompanying drawings; while "inner" and "outer" refer to the outline of the device. In addition, in the description of this application, the term "including" means "including but not limited to". The terms first, second, third, etc. are used only as labels and do not impose numerical requirements or establish an order.
[0026] In this application, "and / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there may be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. A and B can be singular or plural.

"One or more", "at least one of the following" or similar expressions refer to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items or plural items.

[0028] Various embodiments of the present application may be presented in the form of a range; it should be understood that the description in the form of a range is only for convenience and brevity, and should not be understood as a rigid limitation on the scope of the present application; therefore, the range description should be considered to have specifically disclosed all possible sub-ranges and single numerical values within the range. For example, the range description from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed sub-ranges, such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., as well as single numbers within the range, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, which apply regardless of the range. In addition, whenever a numerical range is indicated herein, it is meant to include any cited number (fractional or integer) within the indicated range.
[0029] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3In actual work, the inventors conducted XPS (full name: X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) test on QLED devices and found that the half-width of the Ag3d peak at the ZnMgO / Ag interface is larger than the half-width of the single Ag (about 1eV), indicating that the Ag at the ZnMgO / Ag interface is in an oxidized state.
[0030] The above test results show that the surface of the material of the carrier transport layer in the prior art (such as zinc oxide) usually has more defects and active sites. Therefore, after the carrier transport layer contacts the top electrode (such as silver), the part of the top electrode or the bottom electrode that contacts the electronic functional layer will be oxidized. At this time, the contact surface of the top electrode and the carrier transport layer will generate metal oxide (such as silver oxide), which will hinder the injection and transmission of electrons, resulting in degradation of the performance of the optoelectronic device and poor optical display effect. If a film layer is simply added between the carrier transport layer and the top electrode, although the film layer can isolate the carrier transport layer and the electrode, it will also block the transmission of carriers, making the carrier transmission efficiency even lower than that of the prior art.
[0031] To solve the above problems, please refer to Figure 1 , the present application embodiment provides a method for preparing a photoelectric device, the method comprising:
[0032] S100, providing an optoelectronic device preform, wherein the optoelectronic device preform comprises a bottom electrode and a carrier transport layer which are stacked, and the carrier transport layer comprises an inorganic nanomaterial;
[0033] S200, forming a top electrode on the carrier transport layer to form a photoelectric device precursor;
[0034] S300, performing a reduction treatment on the photoelectric device precursor to obtain the photoelectric device.
[0035] It is understandable that in step S100, the top electrode is in contact with the carrier transport layer, and the portion of the top electrode in contact with the carrier transport layer will be oxidized to form a metal oxide that blocks carrier transport, which is not conducive to the performance of the optoelectronic device. Therefore, the present application performs a reduction treatment on the optoelectronic device precursor in step S300 to reduce the metal oxide to an electrode material, thereby preventing it from hindering the injection and transport of carriers, thereby improving the electronic display efficiency of the optoelectronic device.
[0036] For example, the carrier transport layer is an electronic functional layer, the top electrode is a metal electrode, and the interface between the top electrode and the electronic functional layer reacts to form a metal oxide (such as Ag). 2 O、Al 2 O 3 、MoO 3、Au 2 O 3 , CaO, MgO, BaO, etc.), and the photoelectric device precursor is reduced, so that the metal oxide is reduced to the electrode material again, avoiding its influence on the electron transmission efficiency, thereby improving the electron transmission efficiency and the optical display effect.
[0037] It is understood that the method of forming the top electrode includes but is not limited to evaporation, deposition, and solution method. The reduction treatment includes but is not limited to electrochemical reduction, thermal reduction, gas phase reduction, plasma reduction, solution reduction, etc. Step S300 can also be performed after the optoelectronic device is packaged.
[0038] Furthermore, the step of reducing the photoelectric device precursor includes: placing the photoelectric device precursor in a reducing agent atmosphere for a reduction reaction. Compared with the solution reduction method and other methods, the thermal reduction method can prevent the film layer from being immersed in the reducing agent solution and reacting with the electronic functional layer, the light-emitting layer, the hole functional layer, the anode and other film layers, resulting in degradation of the film layer. At the same time, the high temperature of the heat treatment can promote the reduction reaction, so that the reducing agent in the reducing agent atmosphere reacts more quickly with the metal oxide formed at the contact interface between the carrier transport layer and the top electrode, thereby improving production efficiency; moreover, the heat treatment can ensure that the top electrode is reduced to the same degree by controlling the temperature of each part of the top electrode.
[0039] Furthermore, in the step of placing the photoelectric device precursor in a reducing agent atmosphere for reduction reaction, the photoelectric device precursor is also subjected to heat treatment, the heating temperature is 100°C to 200°C; and / or the heating time is 5min to 30min; and / or the humidity of the reducing agent atmosphere is 50%RH to 99.5%RH. During the heating treatment, the temperature will affect the properties of the reduction product, the humidity of the reducing agent atmosphere will affect the degree of competitive reaction between oxygen and the reducing agent, and the heating time will affect the uniformity of the reduction reaction and the life of the device. The heating temperature of 100°C to 200°C in the embodiment of the present application can make the oxide reduction more thorough. The heating time of 5min to 30min can completely reduce the metal oxide formed at the contact interface between the carrier transport layer and the top electrode. It is understood that the heating temperature can be any one of 100° C., 110° C., 120° C., 130° C., 140° C., 150° C., 160° C., 170° C., 180° C., 190° C., and 200° C., or a range formed between any two of the values. The heating time can be any one of 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, and 30 min, or a range formed between any two of the values.
[0040] Furthermore, the reducing agent includes H 2 , CO, HCHO, H2 O 2 , H 2 O、N 2 Any one or a combination thereof. It is understandable that the type of reducing agent will affect the effect and cost of reduction. Therefore, in the actual production process, the above reducing agent can be selected to reduce the top electrode according to the top electrode material, process conditions, and production cycle requirements. Taking the top electrode as Ag as an example, H 2 O is used to reduce it. The heating temperature is 100-150°C and the heating time is 10-60 minutes. The reduction reaction formula is: Ag 2 O+H 2 O→2Ag + +2OH - Under this condition, it can be ensured that Ag is completely reduced. Finally, the AgO at the junction of the top electrode and the carrier transport layer is reduced to Ag.
[0041] For example, when the reducing agent is H 2 When the reduction reaction is: 2Ag 2 O+H 2 →4Ag+H 2 O; when the reducing agent is CO, the reduction reaction formula is: 2Ag 2 O+CO→4Ag+CO2; when the reducing agent is HCHO, the reduction reaction formula is: HCHO+2Ag 2 O→H 2 O+CO 2 +4Ag; when the reducing agent is H 2 O 2 When the reduction reaction is: Ag 2 O+H 2 O 2 →4Ag+2H 2 O+O 2 ; When the reducing agent is Ag, the reduction reaction formula is: 2Ag 2 O→4Ag+O 2 (Silver oxide decomposes by heating in a nitrogen environment).
[0042] Further, the reducing agent atmosphere includes reducing gas; and / or the reducing agent atmosphere includes reducing gas and protective gas; the reducing gas includes H 2 , CO, HCHO, H 2 O 2 , H 2 O、N 2Any one or a combination thereof; and / or the protective gas includes any one or a combination of He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn; and / or the volume ratio of the reducing gas to the protective gas is (1 to 9): 10. In the actual production process, the reducing gas can be directly introduced to form a reducing atmosphere so that the metal oxide is reduced. It is also possible to increase the protective gas and adjust the volume ratio of the protective gas to the reducing gas while introducing the reducing gas to control the content of the reducing gas in the reducing agent atmosphere, thereby controlling the reduction degree and reduction speed of the metal oxide. It is understandable that the volume ratio of the reducing gas to the protective gas can be any one of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, and 0.9, or a range formed between any two values.

[0045] The materials of the hole functional layer include TFB, CuPc, PVK, Poly-TPD, PFB, DNTPD, TCAATAA, TCCAA, CBP, TPD, NPB, NPD, PEDOT:PSS, T·APC, MCC, F4-TCNQ, HATCN, 4,4',4'-tris(N-3-methylphenyl-Nphenylamino)triphenylamine, polyaniline, transition metal oxides, transition metal sulfides, transition metal tinides, doped graphene, undoped graphene and C60, or any one or a combination thereof.
[0046] like Figures 7 and 8 As shown, taking the case where the carrier transport layer is the electronic functional layer 500 and the top electrode is the cathode 600 as an example, if a cathode of a target thickness is formed directly on the electronic functional layer 500, and then the metal oxide 630 formed between the cathode and the electronic functional layer 500 is reduced, the thickness of the cathode may be too thick, thereby affecting the reduction degree of the metal oxide 630, resulting in the metal oxide 630 not being completely reduced to the cathode 600.
[0047] Further, the step of forming a top electrode on the carrier transport layer includes: forming a first sub-electrode on the carrier transport layer;
[0048] After the step of reducing the photoelectric device precursor, the method further includes forming a second sub-electrode on the first sub-electrode.
[0049] Exemplarily, the first sub-electrode is a first cathode 610 , and the second sub-electrode is a second cathode 620 .
[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, a first cathode 610 (first sub-electrode) of a first thickness is first formed on the electronic functional layer 500, and an oxidation reaction occurs between the first cathode 610 and the electronic functional layer 500 to form a metal oxide 630. Then, the first cathode 610 is subjected to a reduction treatment to completely reduce the first cathode 610; finally, a second cathode 620 (second sub-electrode) is formed on the first cathode 610, and the sum of the thicknesses of the first cathode 610 and the second cathode 620 is the target thickness. This can further improve the reduction degree and reduction efficiency of the reduction reaction, and form a cathode of the target thickness to improve the optical display effect of the optoelectronic device.
[0051] Understandably, please refer to Figures 9 and 10 Alternatively, the cathode 600 and the CPL layer 700 of target thickness may be formed on the electronic functional layer 500, and then reduction treatment may be performed to reduce the metal oxide 630 to the cathode 600. It is understood that the materials of the first sub-electrode and the second sub-electrode layer may be the same or different.
[0052] Furthermore, the step of forming a top electrode on the carrier transport layer comprises: depositing the top electrode on the carrier functional layer at a deposition rate of Deposition methods include PVD, CVD, solution deposition, PECVE, electrochemical deposition and other methods. The deposition environment can be in a vacuum evaporation chamber, and the deposition rate can be controlled in the range of Within this deposition rate, a uniform and dense top electrode film layer can be achieved, which helps to improve the stability and reliability of optoelectronic devices; at the same time, it can shorten the preparation time and improve production efficiency.
[0053] It is understood that the deposition rate of the cathode includes any one of 0.1 0 / s, 0.5 0 / s, 1 0 / s, 1.5 0 / s, 2 0 / s, 2.5 0 / s, 3 0 / s, 3.5 0 / s, 4 0 / s, 4.5 0 / s, 50 / s, 5.5 0 / s, and 6 0 / s, or a range formed between any two values. When the cathode includes a first cathode and a second cathode, since the thickness of the second cathode and the first cathode is different and both are less than the preset thickness, and the second cathode is not prepared on the electronic functional layer, there is no need to worry about the degradation of the electronic functional layer, so the deposition speed of forming the second cathode can be faster, for example, the deposition speed of the first cathode is 0.1 0 / s, and the deposition speed of the second cathode is 0.5 0 / s.
[0054] Further, the inorganic nanomaterial includes any one or a combination of doped or undoped zinc oxide, barium oxide, aluminum oxide, nickel oxide, titanium oxide, tin oxide, tantalum oxide, zirconium oxide, nickel oxide, lithium titanium oxide, zinc aluminum oxide, zinc manganese oxide, zinc tin oxide, lithium zinc oxide, indium tin oxide, cadmium sulfide, zinc sulfide, molybdenum sulfide, tungsten sulfide, copper sulfide, zinc tin, indium phosphide, gallium phosphide, copper indium sulfide, copper gallium sulfide, and barium titanate, and the doped element includes any one or a combination of aluminum, magnesium, lithium, manganese, yttrium, lanthanum, copper, nickel, zirconium, cerium, and gadolinium; or
[0055] The material of the carrier functional layer is an N-type inorganic semiconductor nanomaterial, and / or
[0056] The material of the top electrode includes metal, the material of the bottom electrode includes metal or a composite electrode of metal sandwiched between doped or undoped transparent metal oxides, and the composite electrode includes AZO / Ag / AZO, AZO / Al / AZO, ITO / Ag / ITO, ITO / Al / ITO, ZnO / Ag / ZnO, ZnO / Al / ZnO, ZnS / Ag / ZnS, ZnS / Al / ZnS, TiO 2 / Ag / TiO 2 and TiO 2 / Al / TiO 2Any one or a combination of the metal includes any one or a combination of Ag, Al, Mo, Au, Ca, Mg and Ba.

[0058] Correspondingly, an embodiment of the present application also provides a photoelectric device 10, which includes a bottom electrode, a carrier transport layer and a top electrode, wherein the carrier transport layer includes an inorganic nanomaterial; the top electrode includes a second sub-electrode, and a first electrode material obtained by reduction treatment is provided between the second sub-electrode and the carrier transport layer.
[0059] Furthermore, the materials of the second sub-electrode and the first electrode include metal, and the material of the bottom electrode includes metal or a composite electrode including metal sandwiched between doped or undoped transparent metal oxides.
[0060] Furthermore, the materials of the first sub-electrode and the second sub-electrode are the same or different.
[0061] Please refer to Figure 6 The optoelectronic device includes a substrate 100 and an anode 200, a hole functional layer 300, a light emitting layer 400, an electronic functional layer 500, and a cathode 600 stacked on the substrate 100 in sequence. After the top electrode (cathode 600) and the carrier transport layer (electronic functional layer 500) undergo an oxidation reaction, the cathode 600 of the optoelectronic device 10 undergoes a reduction treatment, and the metal oxide 630 between the cathode 600 and the electronic functional layer 500 is reduced, so the electron transmission efficiency and optical display effect of the optoelectronic device 10 are improved. The materials of each layer in the optoelectronic device have been listed above and will not be repeated here.
[0062] Furthermore, the top electrode further includes a first sub-electrode, the first sub-electrode includes the first electrode material, and the first sub-electrode is arranged between the carrier transport layer and the second sub-electrode; and / or

[0064] The thickness of the bottom electrode is 10nm to 100nm; and / or
[0065] The thickness of the first sub-electrode is 0.1 nm to 20 nm.
[0066] The thickness of the second sub-electrode and / or the bottom electrode is 10nm to 100nm, and the thickness of the first sub-electrode is 0.1nm to 20nm. Within this thickness range, the electron injection efficiency of the first sub-electrode, the second sub-electrode and / or the bottom electrode is high, and the recombination loss of carriers can be reduced, while ensuring the stability of the optoelectronic device 10. It can be understood that the thickness of the top electrode and / or the bottom electrode can be any one of 10nm, 20nm, 30nm, 40nm, 50nm, 60nm, 70nm, 80nm, 90nm, 100nm or a range formed between any two values, and the thickness of the first sub-electrode can be any one of 0.1nm, 1nm, 2nm, 3nm, 4nm, 5nm, 6nm, 7nm, 8nm, 9nm, 10nm, 11nm, 12nm, 13nm, 14nm, 15nm, 16nm, 17nm, 18nm, 19nm, 20nm or a range formed between any two values.
[0067] Accordingly, an embodiment of the present application also provides a display device, which includes the above-mentioned optoelectronic device. At this time, because the metal oxide formed at the contact interface between the carrier transport layer and the top electrode in the optoelectronic device is subjected to reduction treatment, its content is less or has been completely eliminated, so the electron transmission efficiency and optical display effect of the optoelectronic device are improved. It is understandable that the display device can be any electronic product with a display function, and the electronic product includes but is not limited to a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a digital camera, a digital video camera, a smart wearable device, a smart weighing electronic scale, a car display, a television or an e-book reader, wherein the smart wearable device can be, for example, a smart bracelet, a smart watch, a virtual reality (VR) helmet, etc.

[0090] Step 3, restore process. Please refer to Figure 8 , transfer the cathode to H 2 The heating treatment is carried out in an O reducing agent atmosphere to reduce the metal oxide to a cathode, the heating temperature is 150°C, the heating time is 15 min, and the humidity range is 80% RH.
[0091] Step 5: Depositing a CPL layer: The cathode is transferred to a vacuum evaporation chamber, and a CPL layer is further deposited on the cathode.
[0092] Step 6: Packaging: Packaging to form a complete optoelectronic device.
[0093] Comparative Example 3
[0094] This embodiment is basically the same as Comparative Example 2, except that, please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In step E, after the CPL layer is deposited, the reduction treatment in step C is performed.
[0095] XPS was used to observe Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, and the results were Fig.11 .Depend on Fig.11 It can be seen that the half-peak width of the Ag3d peak of Comparative Example 1 is much larger than that of Example 1, that is, after the reduction treatment, most of the silver oxide between the carrier transport layer and the top electrode is reduced to silver element.
[0096] The service life test instrument and the brightness detection instrument measure the working life, electrical performance and brightness of the optoelectronic device at a constant current of 63.7 mA / cm2 and a brightness of 1000 nits, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0097] Table 1:
[0098] project Voltage (V) Efficiency (cd / A) Lifespan (h) Example 1 4.5 115% 130% Example 2 4.4 105% 110% Example 3 4.5 110% 115% Example 4 4.5 115% 110% Example 5 4.2 105% 105% Comparative Example 1 4.8 100% 100% Comparative Example 2 4.5 110% 120% Comparative Example 3 4.5 105% 115%
[0099] Please refer to Table 1, and take the life and efficiency of the comparative example as the reference life and reference voltage. By comparing Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that by reducing the cathode, the life and luminous efficiency of the photoelectric device are improved, and the driving voltage is also reduced. At the same time, the metal oxides formed by cathodes of different materials are also different, but the metal oxides can be reduced, which ultimately improves the life and luminous efficiency of the photoelectric device and reduces the driving voltage.
[0100] By comparing Example 3 and Example 4, it can be seen that the type of reducing agent will affect the luminous efficiency and service life of the photoelectric device finally formed, that is, the type of reducing agent will affect the degree of the reduction reaction.
[0101] By comparing Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that the method of reducing the first cathode immediately after the first cathode is generated and then forming the second cathode on the first cathode can further improve the reduction efficiency of the cathode, thereby further improving the life and efficiency of the photoelectric device.
[0102] By comparing Example 2 and Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that if the reduction treatment is performed after the CPL layer is formed, the reduction degree of the cathode may be further reduced.
