It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be understood that the terms "first", "second" and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying any number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means two or more unless specifically defined otherwise.

According to the film provided by the embodiment of the invention, organic compounds are used for carrying out graft modification, such as amination, on metal oxides, so that a large number of active functional groups, such as amino groups, are arranged on the surface of an uneven metal oxide film layer, luminescent materials, particularly quantum dots, can be stably anchored on the surface of the metal oxide film layer, the flatness of the formed film is improved, the influence of the uneven structure of the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer is effectively reduced, surface defects are reduced, and the luminescent performance of a device is improved.
As an embodiment, the constituent material of the film is a grafted metal oxide, i.e. the grafted metal oxide is dispersed in the film, including the surface of the film. In the embodiment, the surface of the film contains the grafted active functional group, so that the influence of the uneven structure of the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer can be realized, and the performance of a device can be improved.
In another embodiment, the film is a metal oxide layer, and the metal oxide on at least one surface of the film is grafted with the graft compound to form a grafted metal oxide. With this embodiment, it is understood that the grafting compound may be grafted onto the metal oxide on one surface of the film, particularly the surface in contact with the luminescent material, or may be grafted onto the metal oxide on both surfaces of the film. The portion of the film other than the surface to which the graft compound is grafted may be an ungrafted metal oxide. In this embodiment, since the surface of the thin film contains the active functional group grafted thereto, the influence of the corrugated structure on the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer can be reduced, and the device performance can be improved. However, from the viewpoint of product performance and preparation method, the first method is easier to ensure stable and uniform performance and is easier to prepare.
Preferably, the film has a concave-convex surface. The metal oxide film layer with the concave-convex surface is adopted, so that the problem of high reflectivity of the conventional planar inorganic metal oxide film layer in a light-emitting device such as a QLED device and an OLED device can be effectively solved, and the light extraction efficiency of the device is improved. Further preferably, the concave-convex surface is a corrugated surface, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the device to a greater extent.
Hair brushIn the illustrated embodiment, the graft compound for grafting onto the metal oxide is organic, i.e., the resulting film is an organic/inorganic composite film. The structure of the graft compound is X1-R-X2H (i.e. the second reactive functional group is X)2H) The grafting compound being obtained by removing X2The above-attached protic hydrogen is bound to a metal atom in the metal oxide, in particular the metal oxide. Wherein, preferably, the first active functional group is selected from-SH, -COOH, -NH2、-OH、-SO3H. At least one of phosphine group and phosphate group. Preferably, the second reactive functional group is selected from-SH, -COOH, -NH2、-OH、-SO3H. At least one of phosphine group and phosphate group. The active functional group can graft a grafting compound on the surface of a metal organic matter, and meanwhile, the active functional group remained after grafting can play an anchoring role in a luminescent layer deposited subsequently, stably anchor luminescent materials, particularly quantum dots, on the surface of an oxide film layer, improve the flatness of formed films, thereby effectively reducing the influence of uneven surface structures of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer and improving the performance of devices.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the grafting compound for grafting onto the metal oxide is a small molecule organic substance, and preferably, R is a hydrocarbyl group or a hydrocarbyl derivative having a carbon number of 1 to 13. When the molecular weight of the grafting compound is too large, which means that R is the number of carbon atoms is too large, the insulating property of the film is increased and the conductive property is reduced due to the increase of the hydrophobic carbon chain, so that the turn-on voltage of the device is increased, and the service life of the device is influenced.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first reactive functional group and the second reactive functional group may be the same or different. Preferably, the first reactive functional group is the same as the second reactive functional group. Further preferably, the first reactive functional group and the second reactive functional group are both amino groups, i.e., the graft compound is a diamine compound. The amino group at one end of the two amino groups of the diamine compound is subjected to a coordination reaction with metal ions in the metal oxide, so that a molecular chain is grafted on the surface of the metal oxide nanocrystal; the amino at the other end is in a suspended state, namely the surface of the finally obtained corrugated metal oxide film layer is modified with a diamine compound molecular chain with amino. After the light emitting layer, particularly the quantum dot light emitting layer, is deposited on the corrugated metal oxide film layer, the positively charged amino group at one end of the molecular chain of the diamine compound can generate electrostatic force action with the negatively charged group such as mercapto group on the surface of the quantum dot layer, so that electrostatic self-assembly is realized, the quantum dot is ensured to be firmly anchored on the oxide film layer, defects and cavities caused by the corrugated structure on the surface of the metal oxide film layer in the film forming process of the subsequent film layer are effectively avoided, and the influence of the corrugated structure on the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of the subsequent film layers is reduced.
Specifically, the graft compound is preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of ethylenediamine, 1, 2-propylenediamine, 1, 3-propylenediamine, dimethylpropylenediamine, butanediamine, pentanediamine, hexanediamine, heptanediamine, octanediamine, nonanediamine, 4, 9-dioxo-1, 12-dodecanediamine, and 4,7, 10-trioxa-1, 13-tridecanediamine. The preferable active functional group has a good grafting ratio with metal oxide, and has a small molecular weight, so that the starting voltage of the film is not increased.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the metal oxide in the film and the metal oxide in the grafted metal oxide may be conventional inorganic oxides for films, including but not limited to MoO3、WO3、NiO、V2O5、CuO、CrO3、ZnO、TiO2、ZrO2、HfO2. Specifically, when the thin film is a hole transport layer, the metal oxide includes, but is not limited to, MoO3、WO3、NiO、V2O5、CuO、CrO3(ii) a When the thin film is an electron transport layer, the metal oxide includes, but is not limited to, ZnO, TiO2、ZrO2、HfO2、SrTiO3、BaTiO3、MgTiO3
The film of the embodiment of the invention can be prepared by the following method.
In another aspect, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a thin film, including the following steps:
s01, providing a metal oxide nanocrystal, a metal oxide precursor and a grafting compound, and dissolving the metal oxide nanocrystal, the metal oxide precursor and the grafting compound in a solvent to obtain a mixed solution, wherein one end of the grafting compound contains a first active functional group X1And the other end contains a group X bonded to the metal2The organic matter of (a);
s02, depositing the mixed solution on a substrate, heating to the thermal decomposition temperature of the metal oxide precursor, annealing, and preparing the graft X1-R-X2-a metal oxide film of (a).
According to the preparation method of the film provided by the embodiment of the invention, the metal oxide nanocrystal, the metal oxide precursor and the grafting compound are mixed and deposited on the substrate, and the substrate is heated to the thermal decomposition temperature of the metal oxide precursor. In the heating process, the grafting compound is grafted on the metal oxide through the active functional group through the heating process to form grafted metal oxide, so that the influence of the corrugated structure on the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer is reduced.
Specifically, in step S01, the metal oxide nanocrystals are used as seed crystals, and in step S02, it is advantageous to control the nucleation density of the nanocrystals formed by thermal decomposition of the metal oxide precursor, thereby controlling the density of the surface acoustic wave pattern distribution of the film layer. Specifically, the metal oxide nanocrystal may be MoO3、WO3、NiO、V2O5、CuO、CrO3、ZnO、TiO2、ZrO2、HfO2、Ta2O5But is not limited thereto. Specifically, when the prepared film is a hole transport layer, the metal oxide nanocrystals include, but are not limited to, MoO3、WO3、NiO、V2O5、CuO、CrO3(ii) a When the prepared film is an electron transport layer, the metal oxide nanocrystal comprises but is not limited to ZnO and TiO2、ZrO2、HfO2
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the metal oxide nanocrystal is used as a seed crystal, and the influence on the nucleation density of the nano metal oxide formed after the metal oxide precursor is decomposed by heating is large. Preferably, the particle size of the metal oxide nanocrystal is 40-60 nm. The metal oxide nanocrystalline with too small grain size easily causes the formed metal oxide corrugation to be sharper, so that the roughness of the film layer is too high, and the light extraction efficiency of the device is reduced; the metal oxide nanocrystals with too large particle sizes are not easy to disperse and easily agglomerate in the film forming process, so that the uniformity of the formed film is influenced, a large number of defects are introduced into the film layer, and finally the performance of the device is deteriorated.
The metal oxide precursor is a precursor substance that can form a corresponding metal oxide after a heating or annealing treatment, and the form thereof is not strictly limited. For example, when the thin film to be prepared is a hole transport layer, the precursor of molybdenum oxide may be (NH)4)6Mo7O24·4H2O、MoO2(acac)2(ii) a The precursor of tungsten oxide may be W (OC)2H5)5、Na2WO4(ii) a The precursor of nickel oxide can be Ni (OH)2、Ni(Ac)2、Ni(acac)2(ii) a The precursor of vanadium oxide can be VO (acac)2(ii) a The precursor of copper oxide can be Cu (acac)2(ii) a The precursor of chromium oxide can be Cr (acac)3. When the prepared film is an electron transport layer, the precursor of zinc oxide can be Zn (Ac)2(ii) a The precursor of titanium oxide may be C12H28O4Ti、C16H36O4Ti、TiCl4(ii) a The precursor of the zirconium oxide can be ZrOCl2·8H2O、Zr(NO3)4·5H2O、Zr(Ac)4(ii) a The precursor of hafnium oxide may be HfCl2·6H2And O. Of course, not limited thereto.
The grafting compound is an organic modifier for modifying metal oxide, and specifically, the structure of the grafting compound is X1-R-X2H. Wherein, X1、R、X2As mentioned above, for economy of text, it is not described here in detail.
Preferably, the molar ratio of the metal oxide nanocrystal to the metal oxide precursor to the grafting compound is 1 (1-3) to 0.5-1. The content of the metal oxide nanocrystals has a great influence on the nucleation density of the nano metal oxide formed after the metal oxide precursor is subjected to thermal decomposition, and the too low content of the metal oxide nanocrystals can cause the too low nucleation density of the metal oxide, so that the formed ripples are few, the peak surfaces are sharp, the light extraction efficiency cannot be obviously improved, and the deposition of a subsequent film layer is not facilitated; if the content of the metal oxide nanocrystals is too high, the nucleation density of the metal oxide is too high, so that the corrugation peak surface is smooth, even a corrugated structure cannot be formed, and the light extraction efficiency cannot be obviously improved. The content of the grafting compound mainly affects the modification degree and the performance of a device, the insufficient modification degree of the film layer is directly caused by the excessively low content of the grafting compound, and the active functional groups cannot be modified on the partial surface area of the corrugated metal oxide film layer, so that the deposition of the subsequent film layer is affected; the high content of the graft compound deteriorates the device performance, and since the graft compound is an insulating material and occupies a part of the volume after film formation, the mobility of the carrier in the transport layer is low, which finally affects the light emitting efficiency of the device.
In the embodiment of the invention, the solvent can dissolve the metal oxide nanocrystal and the metal oxide precursor, and meanwhile, the boiling point of the solvent is higher than the normal temperature, i.e. the solvent which is extremely easy to volatilize is not suitable to be selected, so that the volatilization rate of the solvent can be conveniently controlled in the reaction process. . In view of the above, the solvent is preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of C1 to C5 linear alcohols, C1 to C5 branched alcohols, chlorobenzene, and dimethyl sulfoxide.
In the step S02, the mixed solution is deposited on the substrate, and the deposition method may be, but is not limited to, one of spin coating, printing, knife coating, dip-coating, dipping, spraying, roll coating, casting, slit coating, and stripe coating.
Further, will sinkHeating the accumulated sample to the thermal decomposition temperature of the metal oxide precursor, and annealing to obtain the graft X1-R-X2-a metal oxide film of (a). In the step of heating to the thermal decomposition temperature of the metal oxide precursor, preferably, the heating rate is 20 to 30 ℃/min. By controlling a proper temperature rise rate (20-30 ℃/min), the metal oxide precursor is influenced by the volatilization rate of the solvent while being thermally decomposed, and a film with a concave-convex structure, particularly a corrugated three-dimensional shape, on the surface is formed. On the other hand, the grafting compound is grafted on the metal oxide through the active functional group through the heating process to form the grafted metal oxide, so that the influence of the corrugated structure on the surface of the metal oxide film layer on the flatness of each subsequent film layer is reduced.
Specifically, in the process of heating to the thermal decomposition temperature of the metal oxide precursor, when the metal oxide precursor reaches the thermal decomposition temperature, the size and morphology of the oxide nanocrystals are highly susceptible to the annealing rate. This is mainly caused by the difference in the thermal decomposition rate of the metal oxide precursor and the volatilization of the solvent. When the annealing speed is higher than 30 ℃/s, the solvent in the reaction system can be completely volatilized in time, the thermal decomposition of the reaction precursor can avoid the interference of solvent volatilization, and the oxide nanocrystal obtained by decomposition forms a uniform and flat film. When the annealing rate is reduced, the volatilization rate of the solvent in the reaction system is slowed down, so that the solvent cannot be volatilized completely in time, and at the moment, because the volatilization of the solvent and the thermal decomposition rate of the reaction precursor are carried out simultaneously, the directional growth of the oxide nanocrystal is interfered by the volatilization of the solvent. In practical situations, the solvent evaporation in different areas on the same plane is not uniform, so that the generated oxide nanocrystals in different areas have different sizes, and finally the film layer has a corrugated three-dimensional appearance. However, when the annealing rate is too low, which is lower than 20 ℃/s, the volatilization rate of the solvent in the reaction system is too slow, which easily causes agglomeration among the metal nanocrystals in the reaction process. In view of this, in the embodiment of the present invention, the heating rate of 20 to 30 ℃/s is used as an annealing condition to prepare the metal oxide thin film with a corrugated surface.
Meanwhile, in the thermal decomposition process of the metal oxide precursor, the metal oxide nanocrystals mixed with the metal oxide precursor in the solution can be used as seed crystals, so that the control of the nucleation density of the nanocrystals is facilitated, and the control of the density of the surface wave pattern distribution of the film layer is realized.
Taking the preparation of the corrugated zinc oxide film with aminated surface as an example, the preparation method is as follows: adding 0.1-0.5 mg zinc oxide nano-crystal with particle size less than 100nm into Zn (CH) with concentration of 0.5-1 mmol/mL3COO)2And (3) carrying out ultrasonic treatment on the mixed solution for 30min in the ethylene glycol monomethyl ether solution to uniformly disperse the zinc oxide nanocrystals. And then adding 0.02-0.1 mg of low-molecular-weight diamine compound into the mixed solution, fully dissolving, uniformly depositing the solution on a substrate, raising the temperature to 300 ℃ at a heating rate of 20-25 ℃/s, and annealing for 30min to obtain the zinc oxide film with a corrugated surface.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a use of a thin film, a light emitting device, including the thin film or the thin film prepared by the method.
The luminescent device provided by the embodiment of the invention contains the film, and the surface flatness of the metal oxide can be repaired, so that the luminescent performance of the device is improved.
Specifically, the film is used as a hole transport layer and/or an electron transport layer of a light emitting device such as a QLED device or an OLED device, and the reflection effect of the film on light emitted from the light emitting layer can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the light extraction rate of the device.
