Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of piezoelectric materials, and relates to a Cu2O-ZnO-doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric film and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] P(VDF-TrFE) based piezoelectric films have a wide application prospect in the field of flexible electronics due to their excellent flexibility and piezoelectric properties. To further improve their piezoelectric properties, researchers have tried to introduce Cu2O and ZnO nanomaterials as modifiers. The introduction methods mainly include multilayer composite structure preparation, 3D printing technology and vapor deposition method, but these methods have significant defects in practical application.
[0003] The multilayer composite structure preparation method attempts to improve the piezoelectric properties by stacking materials through hot pressing or bonding process. However, the interface between different material layers is only combined by physical action, and the interface bonding force is weak, which is easy to cause delamination and peeling in the use process. This leads to insufficient interface synergistic effect of ZnO nanorods and P(VDF-TrFE) matrix, and the ZnO nanorods are difficult to deform synchronously with the polymer during stress transfer, the ion charge separation efficiency is low, and the piezoelectric performance is limited. In addition, the ZnO nanorods are unevenly dispersed in the composite layer, which cannot effectively induce P(VDF-TrFE) to form a high dipole moment β phase crystal type, limiting the further improvement of piezoelectric properties.
[0004] The 3D printing technology attempts to achieve uniform distribution of nanomaterials through structural design by embedding Cu2O-ZnO dopants into P(VDF-TrFE) film during the printing process. However, for ZnO nanorods, the layer thickness precision of 3D printing cannot meet the needs of its oriented growth, resulting in disordered arrangement and uneven size of ZnO nanorods. This not only weakens the induction effect of ZnO nanorods on β phase by spontaneous polarization, but also aggravates the potential shielding effect due to random contact of ZnO nanorods, which cancels out the piezoelectric potential through tunneling effect of free carriers, resulting in significant decrease in piezoelectric properties. In addition, the solvent system available for printing is limited, and ZnO nanorods are prone to agglomeration, which further deteriorates the material dispersion and interface bonding force.
[0005] The gas deposition method deposits ZnO / Cu2O to the surface of P(VDF-TrFE) through physical or chemical vapor deposition technology, and attempts to improve the piezoelectric performance through surface modification. However, it is difficult to accurately control the orientation and spacing of ZnO nanorods in the deposition process, and the nanoscale contact leads to strong carrier tunneling effect, and the piezoelectric performance is significantly inhibited. At the same time, the deposition layer and the polymer matrix are only combined through van der Waals force, and lack an active charge separation mechanism (such as a p-n heterojunction), and the stress-induced charge recombination rate is high, and the piezoelectric output stability is poor.
[0006] In summary, the prior art has significant defects in the interface bonding strength, nanomaterial dispersibility, orientation control and charge separation efficiency in the method of introducing Cu2O and ZnO into P(VDF-TrFE) based piezoelectric thin film. These defects limit the further improvement of piezoelectric performance, and new modification strategies need to be developed to overcome the limitations of the prior art. SUMMARY
[0007] The purpose of the present application is to solve the problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a Cu2O-ZnO doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric thin film and a preparation method thereof.
[0008] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0009] A preparation method of a Cu2O-ZnO doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric thin film, after preparing a P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film with uniform distribution of ZnO seeds, ZnO nanorod arrays are grown on the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film by hydrothermal method, and Cu2O particles are grown on the ZnO nanorod arrays by hydrothermal method, to obtain the Cu2O-ZnO doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric thin film.
[0010] The Cu2O-ZnO doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric thin film of the present application has excellent piezoelectric performance, and the reasons are as follows:
[0011] (1) When ZnO nanorod arrays are grown on the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film by hydrothermal method, ZnO has a hexagonal wurtzite structure, which has non-central symmetry. The Zn 2+ and O 2- ions are ordered arranged along the c-axis direction, forming an inherent dipole moment, which gives the ZnO nanorod a significant spontaneous polarization characteristic. In the process of spontaneous polarization, the ZnO nanorod accumulates positive charge at one end and negative charge at the other end, and the two opposite polarity charges will in turn induce the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film to form more β phase.
[0012] P(VDF-TrFE) has multiple crystal phases (such as α phase, β phase, γ phase), among which the β phase is a fully anti-conformation (TTTT conformation), the molecular chain is arranged regularly, and the dipole moment direction of carbon-fluorine bond is consistent, so that it has a very high dipole moment. Dipole moment is a physical quantity to measure the strength of molecular polarity, and the high dipole moment of the β phase means that the molecular polarity is stronger, and the response to external electric field or mechanical stress is more sensitive. When subjected to mechanical stress, the molecular chain of the β phase is more prone to orientation change, resulting in stronger polarization response, leading to more significant charge separation and higher piezoelectric output. In contrast, other crystal phases have relatively disordered molecular chain arrangement and inconsistent dipole moment direction, and have weaker response to external stimuli and lower piezoelectric effect.
[0013] (2) P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber membrane and ZnO nanorod produce synergistic piezoelectric enhancement effect: when subjected to stress, the ZnO nanorod deflects and slides with each other, intensifying the synergistic deformation of the ZnO nanorod and the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber membrane, enhancing the ion charge separation, and thus improving the potential and output of the external circuit.
[0014] (3) When the ZnO nanorod contacts at the nanoscale, the free carriers will transfer between the nanorods through the tunneling effect. When the polar surface of the ZnO nanorod is subjected to stress, a pressure potential will be generated along the c-axis of the nanorod, and the induced electric field will further drive the electron tunneling, offsetting the piezoelectricity. This phenomenon is called potential shielding effect, which is the main reason for the decline of piezoelectric performance. The present application grows Cu2O particles on the ZnO nanorod to construct a p-n heterojunction (n-type ZnO / p-type Cu2O), effectively inhibiting the potential shielding effect, and the specific mechanism is as follows:
[0015] When the p-type semiconductor (Cu2O particles) contacts with the n-type semiconductor (ZnO nanorod), due to the difference in carrier concentration, a built-in electric field (direction from n-type to p-type) is formed at the interface. The built-in electric field can block the movement of free carriers, slow down the shielding speed of piezoelectric polarization, and at the same time promote the movement of electrons and holes in opposite directions, realize the effective separation of photo-generated carriers, reduce the recombination of carriers in ZnO, prolong the carrier lifetime and improve the transmission efficiency. In addition, the introduction of p-type semiconductor changes the energy band structure of n-type semiconductor, forming a heterojunction structure conducive to carrier separation and transmission, further improving the output voltage and current density.
[0016] Cu2O as a narrow direct band gap semiconductor (Eg=2.1eV), its conduction band than the cathode of ZnO conduction band more, conducive to the effective transfer of electrons. ZnO and Cu2O interface of the electron and hole diffusion forming depletion region and built-in electric field (Ebi), further promote the separation and collection of piezoelectric induced charge, reduce the complex, thus inhibiting the shielding effect and enhance the piezoelectric output. From the energy band arrangement, ZnO and Cu2O form type II heterojunction (ZnO conduction band is lower than Cu2O conduction band, valence band offset), carrier separation mechanism is: piezoelectric potential driven ZnO electron transfer to Cu2O conduction band, while forming a hole potential barrier between ZnO and Cu2O valence band, reduce the complex, improve the charge separation efficiency and short circuit current (Isc).
[0017] As a preferred technical solution:
[0018] The preparation method of the Cu2O-ZnO doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric film as described above, the preparation process of the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film uniformly distributed with ZnO seeds on the surface is as follows: after configuring electrospinning solution containing ZnO@CTAB nanoparticles and P(VDF-TrFE) (polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) at the same time, electrospinning is carried out, and the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film uniformly distributed with ZnO seeds on the surface is obtained; the thickness of the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film uniformly distributed with ZnO seeds on the surface is 0.124-0.164mm.
[0019] The ZnO@CTAB nanoparticles are ZnO nanoparticles coated with CTAB (hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide), and the use of CTAB (hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide) to coat the ZnO nanoparticles can improve the dispersibility of the ZnO nanoparticles in the nanofiber film, so that the ZnO seeds are more uniformly distributed on the surface of the nanofiber film, which is conducive to the subsequent growth of ZnO nanorod array on the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film.

[0024] The preparation method of the Cu2O-ZnO-doped P(VDF-TrFE) high piezoelectric film as described above, the process of growing Cu2O particles on the ZnO nanorod array by a hydrothermal method is as follows: the P(VDF-TrFE) based nanofiber film with the surface growing ZnO nanorod array is immersed into a second hydrothermal reaction solution, and after hydrothermal reaction at 120-180 DEG C for 60-90 min, post-treatment is carried out (first ultrasonic cleaning with distilled water and anhydrous ethanol for 5 min, and then drying in a vacuum oven at 30 DEG C for 3 h), wherein the second hydrothermal reaction solution contains 0.002-0.005 M Cu(CH3COO)2·H2O and 0.28-0.4 M triethanolamine.
