Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Use of energy by moving object

If a curable composition containing perovskite compounds is used to form films, then high quantum yield and light-emitting properties are achieved, but the quantum yield decreases due to heat exposure

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantum yieldVSAvoidstability under heat
Core Design Contradiction:
Use of energy by moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces antioxidants (such as phenolic antioxidants, amine antioxidants, or their combinations) as intermediary substances that mediate between the perovskite compound and heat exposure. These antioxidants act as heat protection agents that absorb or mitigate the harmful effects of heat on the perovskite compound, thereby maintaining the quantum yield while exposing the film to heat during storage or operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent modifies the chemical composition parameters of the curable system by selecting specific photopolymerizable compounds (acrylates, vinyl monomers), photopolymerization initiators (photoinitiators for UV or visible light curing), and antioxidants with particular structures. By changing these compositional parameters, the film achieves both high initial quantum yield and improved heat resistance, allowing the quantum yield to be maintained under heat exposure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If perovskite compounds are incorporated into curable compositions for film formation, then high light-emitting efficiency is achieved, but the film shows decreased stability and performance degradation under thermal conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelight-emitting efficiencyVSAvoidthermal stability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a composite curable composition that integrates perovskite compounds with photopolymerizable compounds, photopolymerization initiators, and antioxidants. This composite formulation combines the high light-emitting efficiency of perovskites with the thermal stability provided by the polymer matrix and antioxidant protection, resulting in a film that maintains both productivity (light-emitting efficiency) and compositional stability under thermal conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies antioxidants in advance as a protective measure before heat exposure occurs. These antioxidants are incorporated into the curable composition formulation prior to film formation and curing, providing pre-established protection against thermal degradation. This beforehand cushioning ensures that when the film is subsequently exposed to heat during storage or operation, the perovskite compound's quantum yield and compositional stability are preserved.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

3Reliability

If heat resistance is improved in perovskite-based films, then quantum yield maintenance is achieved, but additional components and formulation complexity are introduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantum yield maintenanceVSAvoidformulation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent selects antioxidants and photopolymerizable compounds that serve multiple functions simultaneously. The antioxidants not only provide heat protection to maintain quantum yield but also contribute to the overall stability and longevity of the cured film. The photopolymerizable compounds serve as both the matrix material for film formation and as components that work synergistically with the antioxidants to provide thermal stability. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate protective layers or complex multi-component systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
