Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor materials, and more particularly to a chiral perovskite quantum dot, its preparation method, and its application in spin light-emitting diodes. Background Technology
[0002] Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) are a novel type of nanoscale semiconductor material used in the fabrication of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). When chiral organic molecules are attached to their surface, they are called chiral perovskite quantum dots, which are the light-emitting materials for spin LEDs. Currently, the main steps for preparing chiral PQDs via ligand exchange are as follows: first, chiral PQDs are prepared using a binary hot-injection method; then, the cleaned PQD solution is mixed with a methyl acetate solution containing a certain amount of chiral molecular salt, such as R- / S-MBA:Br; ligand exchange is performed by shaking; and impurities are removed by centrifugation to obtain the final product.
[0003] The aforementioned ligand exchange method addresses the issue of reduced chiral properties of PQDs caused by the cleaning process by exchanging chiral ligands onto the PQDs surface after cleaning. However, current chiral ligand exchange techniques primarily employ chemically assisted methods, resulting in limited ligand exchange efficiency, weak adsorption capacity of chiral ligands, and easy desorption from the PQDs surface, leading to defects and weak chiral luminescence in the prepared spin LEDs. Furthermore, ligand exchange methods have poor applicability; different methods or solutions are required to facilitate ligand exchange for different PQDs and chiral ligands. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a chiral perovskite quantum dot, its preparation method, and its application in spin light-emitting diodes. By using ultrasound to promote ligand exchange, chiral PQDs with strong chirality and fewer defects can be prepared. It not only has high ligand exchange efficiency, but also has universal applicability to different perovskite quantum dots and chiral ligands.
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, one objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing chiral perovskite quantum dots, comprising the following steps: After washing the perovskite quantum dots, they are added to a solvent to form a redispersible solution. The solvent is at least one of toluene, chloroform, and n-hexane. The redispersible solution is mixed with a chiral ligand and subjected to ultrasonic treatment. The supernatant is then collected by centrifugation to obtain chiral perovskite quantum dots.
[0006] This application disperses cleaned perovskite quantum dots in a low-polarity solvent such as toluene or chloroform. In this case, the perovskite quantum dots are stable in the solvent and will not decompose, and are uniformly dispersed. Subsequently, ultrasonic treatment is used to assist in promoting ligand exchange and improve the ligand exchange efficiency, so that chiral organic molecules attach to the surface of the perovskite quantum dots, thereby preparing chiral PQDs with strong CD and CPL signals. These PQDs not only have strong chirality and fewer surface defects, but can also be adapted to different perovskite quantum dots and chiral ligands, exhibiting high versatility and suitability for industrial applications.
[0007] In some embodiments, the perovskite quantum dots have the general structural formula CsPbX. a X is at least one of Br, Cl, and I, and a is 1-3.
[0008] In some embodiments, the perovskite quantum dots include CsPbBr3 PQDs and CsPbCl. 1.5 Br 1.5 At least one of PQDs and CsPbI3PQDs. The perovskite quantum dots used in this application have high crystal structure stability and are not easily decomposed during ultrasonic-assisted ligand exchange, thus maintaining crystal structure stability.
[0009] In some embodiments, the chiral ligand is at least one selected from R-(+)-α-methylbenzylamine, S-(-)-α-methylbenzylamine, (R)-2-aminooctane, (S)-2-aminooctane, (R)-2-aminooctanoic acid, and (S)-2-aminooctanoic acid. The chiral ligands used in this application exhibit good compatibility with the solvent, forming a homogeneous solution. Furthermore, after ultrasonic treatment-assisted ligand exchange, chiral organic molecules can adhere to the surface of the PQDs, thereby causing the prepared chiral PQDs to exhibit larger CD and CPL signals.
[0010] In some embodiments, the concentration of perovskite quantum dots in the redispersible solution is 10-20 mg / mL.
[0011] In some embodiments, the volume ratio of the redispersible solution to the chiral ligand is 100:(1-6).
[0012] In some embodiments, the volume ratio of the redispersible solution to the chiral ligand is any one of 100:1, 100:2, 100:3, 100:4, 100:5, 100:6, or a range between any two.
[0013] By controlling the volume ratio of the redispersed solution and the chiral ligand within the above-mentioned range, the CD and CPL signal intensity of the chiral PQDs can be increased, thereby improving the chiral ability. The preferred volume ratio is 100:1. If the volume ratio is too small, the CD and CPL signals will gradually weaken, and the chiral ability will decrease.
[0014] In some implementations, the ultrasonic power of the ultrasonic treatment is 200-800 W.
[0015] In some implementations, the ultrasonic power of the ultrasonic treatment is any one or a range between any two of 200 W, 300 W, 400 W, 500 W, 600 W, 700 W, and 800 W.
[0016] This application controls the power of ultrasound-assisted ligand exchange within the above-mentioned range, preferably at 400 W. If the ultrasound power is too low, it will not effectively promote ligand exchange, resulting in low CD and CPL signal intensity and poor chiral ability of chiral PQDs.
[0017] In some implementations, the ultrasonic treatment time is 3-9 minutes.
[0018] In some implementations, the ultrasonic treatment time is any one of 3 min, 4 min, 5 min, 6 min, 7 min, 8 min, 9 min, or a range between any two.
[0019] This application controls the time of ultrasound-assisted ligand exchange within the above-mentioned range, and preferably within 5 minutes. If the ultrasound time is too short, the ligand exchange efficiency will be low and the CD and CPL signal strength of chiral PQDs will be low. If the ultrasound time is too long, the process time will be increased.
[0020] In some implementations, the centrifugation speed is 2000-4000 rpm and the centrifugation time is 3-20 min.
[0021] In some implementations, the centrifugal speed is any one of 2000 rpm, 2500 rpm, 3000 rpm, 3500 rpm, 4000 rpm, or a range between any two.
[0022] In some implementations, the centrifugation time is any one or a range between any two of the following: 3 min, 4 min, 5 min, 6 min, 7 min, 8 min, 9 min, 10 min, 11 min, 12 min, 13 min, 14 min, 15 min, 16 min, 17 min, 18 min, 19 min, and 20 min.
[0023] To address the aforementioned technical problems, a second objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing chiral perovskite quantum dots using the aforementioned chiral perovskite quantum dot preparation method.
[0024] To address the aforementioned technical problems, a third objective of this invention is to provide an application of the chiral perovskite quantum dots in spin light-emitting diodes.
[0025] The chiral perovskite quantum dots prepared in this application not only possess extremely strong chirality but also have few surface defects. When applied to spin-emitting diodes (SLEDs), they exhibit high brightness and peak external quantum efficiency (PEE), and also possess circularly polarized electroluminescence properties, achieving high EQE and high g-efficiency. EL The EL intensity of the LED did not show any decay over a period of 220 minutes, demonstrating the potential of chiral PQDs in spin LED applications.
[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this application, perovskite quantum dots are dispersed in toluene or chloroform solvents with low polarity. Ultrasound is introduced as an auxiliary means for PQD ligand exchange. The energy and vibration provided by ultrasound enhance the efficiency of ligand exchange and successfully passivate the surface defects of PQDs. Chiral PQDs with strong CD and CPL signals are prepared, and the LED devices made from the treated PQDs exhibit excellent circularly polarized electroluminescence performance and good external quantum efficiency.
[0027] 2. The ultrasound-assisted ligand exchange method of this application has a wide range of applications and can be applied to a variety of different PQDs and a variety of chiral ligands. It has high versatility and is suitable for industrial applications. Attached Figure Description

[0057] Performance testing like Figure 1 As shown in Figure A, when preparing chiral PQDs via ligand exchange using this chemically assisted method, taking chiral CsPbBr3PQDs as an example, the preparation process and ligand exchange process exhibit low exchange efficiency and poor stability of the chiral ligands anchored in the PQDs. The efficiency of chiral ligand exchange can be reflected by the circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence of the PQDs, such as... Figure 1 As shown in Figure B, the chiral PQDs exhibit weak circular dichroism.
[0058] like Figure 2 As shown in Figure B, in Comparative Examples 1-2, PQDs were dissolved and decomposed using a highly polar solution, dimethylformamide, followed by the addition of chiral ligands for ligand exchange. Perovskite was then precipitated using toluene to form quantum dots. The chiral PQDs prepared using this method exhibited weak CPL activity. In Examples 1-2 of this application, PQDs were dissolved using a low-polarity solution, toluene, and then ultrasonic-assisted ligand exchange was used. The circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized light luminescence (CPL) spectra of the prepared chiral PQDs are shown below. Figure 2 The strong signals in B and C are shown in the circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized light luminescence (CPL) spectra of chiral PQDs detected without ultrasound assistance in Comparative Examples 3-4 are as follows: Figure 2 The weak chiral signals of C and D are shown. This indicates that the CD and CPL properties of chiral PQDs prepared by ultrasound-assisted ligand exchange are greatly enhanced. The calculated g, used to express the strength of CD and CPL abilities, is further supported. abs and g lum like Figure 2 As shown in Figure E, the CD and CPL capabilities of the chiral PQDs in Examples 1-2 are stronger than those in Comparative Examples 3-4.
[0059] Figure 2 The figures in Table F show the statistical g values of chiral PQDs prepared under different ultrasonic powers in Examples 1-2 and 3-6, respectively.abs and g lum The results showed that chiral PQDs prepared with ultrasonic power of 400-800 W had strong chirality. Figure 2 The figures in G represent the statistical results of chiral PQDs prepared under different ultrasound durations in Examples 1-2 and 7-10, respectively. abs and g lum The results showed that the chiral PQDs prepared by sonication for 3-9 minutes had strong chiral ability. Figure 2 The figures in H represent the statistical g values of chiral PQDs prepared under different chiral ligand volumes in Examples 1-2 and 11-15, respectively. abs and g lum The results demonstrate that highly chiral PQDs can be prepared under optimal conditions of 10-40 μL of chiral ligands.
[0060] like Figure 3 Figures A and B show the high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) results of the chiral PQDs in Example 1 and the chiral PQDs in Comparative Example 5, respectively. Figure 3 In Figure C, the X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra of chiral PQDs prepared with ultrasound assistance in Example 1, chiral PQDs without ultrasound treatment in Comparative Example 3, and chiral PQDs without ultrasound treatment in Comparative Example 5 are shown. HRTEM and XRD indicate that the morphology and cubic crystal structure of the PQDs in Example 1 did not change before and after treatment.
[0061] like Figure 3 As shown in Figure C, in the XPS of Example 1, -NH 2 and -NH 3+ The peak area is larger than that in Comparative Example 5. For example... Figure 3 As shown in Figure D, the peak of C=C (derived from chiral molecules) appears in the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of Example 1, and as shown in Figure D... Figure 3 As shown in Figure E, the FTIR spectrum of Example 1 shows C=O (derived from free oleic acid, used to determine the amount of oleic acid desorbed from the PQDs surface) and COO. - The peak area ratio (derived from oleic acid adsorbed on the surface of PQDs) is larger than that of Comparative Example 5, such as... Figure 3 As shown in Figure E, the C=C and CH in the FTIR spectrum of Example 1 x The peak area ratio (derived from the original oleic acid and oleylamine ligands) is increased compared to Comparative Example 5. For example... Figure 3 As shown in Figures G and H, the 1H NMR peaks of the chiral PQDs in Example 1 show shifts and changes in peak area compared to Comparative Example 5. The XPS, FTIR, and 1H NMR peak results all collectively demonstrate that the chiral ligands in Example 1 were successfully attached to the surface of the PQDs with ultrasonic assistance. Furthermore, as... Figure 3As shown in Figure I, it is demonstrated that the ultrasound-assisted ligand exchange method in Example 1 has a higher exchange efficiency than the ultrasound-free method in Comparative Example 3.
[0062] like Figure 4 As shown in Figure A, during X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization, the chiral PQDs of Example 1, after ultrasonic treatment, exhibited narrower diffraction peaks compared to those of Comparative Example 3 (untreated). The results indicate that chiral ligands can potentially passivate excessive surface defects caused by weakly bonded oleic acid and oleylamine ligands on PQDs, thereby improving crystal quality and suppressing nonradiative carrier recombination. Therefore, carrier dynamics closely related to nonradiative carrier loss were investigated using photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) measurements.
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown in Figure B, the chiral PQDs solution based on Example 1, which underwent ultrasonic treatment, exhibited a high PLQY of 94%, while the PLQY based on the untreated chiral PQDs solution of Comparative Example 3 showed 86%. This indicates that nonradiative carrier recombination in the former chiral PQDs was suppressed. Figure 4 As shown in Figure C, the carrier lifetime revealed by TRPL measurements exhibits a similar trend, with the ultrasonically treated chiral PQDs of Example 1 showing an enhanced carrier lifetime of 5.62 ns compared to 4.33 ns for the untreated chiral PQDs in Comparative Example 3. Figure 4 The space charge limiting current (SCLC) tests shown in Figures D and E demonstrate that the chiral PQDs device in Comparative Example 3, without ultrasonic treatment, exhibits a trap fill limiting voltage of 1.64 V. TFL ), and the corresponding trap density (n trap The value is calculated to be 1.2 × 10¹⁸ cm. -3 ; while the V of the device of the chiral PQDs subjected to ultrasonic treatment in Example 1 TFL Reduced to 0.96 V, n trap Reduced to 7.0 × 10¹⁷ cm -3 .like Figure 4 As shown in Figure F, the capacitance-frequency (C-ω) spectra of the devices of the two chiral PQDs in Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 show that the device of the unultrasonicated chiral PQD in Comparative Example 3 has a higher capacitance, which is related to the presence of a higher density of traps that capture charge carriers. Figure 4As shown in G, the defect state density (Nt) as a function of the defect state energy (Eω) can be further converted using C-ω spectral data. Compared with the unultrasonicated device based on chiral PQDs in Comparative Example 3, the defect state density of the ultrasonically treated device in Example 1 is significantly reduced by nearly an order of magnitude, indicating that surface defect passivation leads to the suppression of deep-level defects.
