Solution Overview

Problem

Current quantum dot materials, such as cadmium selenide (CdSe), pose environmental pollution risks due to heavy metals and are sensitive to oxygen and moisture, limiting their stability and efficiency in light-emitting diode devices.

Innovation Solution

A quantum dot light emitting material is developed with a core of inorganic oxide, such as silica, covered by a layer of perovskite quantum dots, which are directly deposited using a solution method, and a protective layer is added to enhance stability, replacing traditional CdSe/ZnS core-shell structures.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of energy

If CdSe quantum dot material with core-shell structure is used, then luminous efficiency is improved, but environmental pollution risk increases due to heavy metals

Engineering Contradiction:

If CdSe quantum dot material is used, then luminous efficiency is improved, but stability deteriorates due to sensitivity to oxygen and moisture

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous efficiencyVSAvoidstability
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The invention employs a nested core-shell structure where the inorganic oxide core is enclosed by the perovskite quantum dot shell. This nested configuration protects the light-emitting quantum dot layer from environmental degradation while maintaining optical efficiency, thus resolving the stability issue.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The inorganic oxide core acts as an intermediary protective layer that shields the perovskite quantum dots from direct contact with oxygen and moisture, while the perovskite shell maintains the optical properties. This intermediary structure resolves the contradiction between efficiency and stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
