研究目的
To develop Pb/Cd-free, solution processed luminescent Ag2ZnSnS4 (AZTS) colloidal QDs with size-tunable bandgap for compliance with RoHS Directive and applications in optoelectronics.
研究成果
A synthetic method for producing size-controlled, luminescent environmentally friendly AZTS QDs has been developed, demonstrating the quantum confinement effect for the first time in these quaternary QDs. Surface passivation with Zn-oleate improves colloidal and phase stability and enhances PLQY, paving the way for their adoption in optoelectronic device applications.
研究不足
The PL quantum yield of these QDs is low (3.8%) compared to established (Cd, Pb) based binary or (Cu, In) based ternary chalcogenide QDs. Possible reasons include cationic disorder leading to bulk defects and insufficient ligand passivation.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Hot injection technique was used for the synthesis of AZTS QDs, controlling reaction conditions to achieve size variation.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Precursors included Silver Acetate, Tin (II) acetate, Zinc(II) acetate, oleic Acid, 1-octadecene, sulfur powder, and Hexamethyldisilathiane.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A 50 ml three-necked round-bottom flask equipped with a temperature controller probe, schlenk line, and heating mantle.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Degassing under vacuum, injection of sulfur precursor, annealing, and washing by centrifugation.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
TEM for size analysis, UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy for optical properties, XRD and Raman spectroscopy for structural analysis.
