an inorganic semiconductor material comprising: the nano-material comprises a titanium dioxide nano-material and a thiol compound, wherein the thiol compound is bonded with metal atoms in the titanium dioxide nano-material through sulfydryl so as to be combined on the surface of the titanium dioxide nano-material.
The inorganic semiconductor material provided by the embodiment of the invention is a titanium dioxide nano material modified by the surface of a thiol compound, the thiol compound is bonded with metal atoms in the titanium dioxide nano material by sulfydryl, the defect state existing on the surface of the titanium dioxide nano material is effectively passivated, the carrier recombination center caused by the defect state at the interface is reduced, the recombination probability of captured electrons and holes in bulk heterojunction is reduced, the electrons and the holes are promoted to be effectively recombined in a quantum dot light-emitting layer, the photon-generated carrier transmission life in a device is prolonged by an electron transmission channel constructed after surface passivation, the electron transmission capability of the material is improved, and the light-emitting performance of a quantum dot light-emitting diode is integrally improved.
Specifically, the titanium dioxide nano material is an n-type semiconductor material and is used as a material of an electron transport layer of the quantum dot light-emitting diode. In the embodiment of the invention, the titanium dioxide nano material is preferably a water-soluble nano material. In the later process, the metal oxide nano material is easy to dissolve in aqueous solution, has good film forming property, ensures the structural integrity of the quantum dot light-emitting diode and improves the light-emitting property of the quantum dot light-emitting device. In one embodiment, the preparation of the titanium dioxide nanomaterial comprises: providing a titanium salt, and dissolving the titanium salt in alcohol to prepare a salt solution; providing an alkali liquor, adding the alkali liquor into the salt solution for mixing, stirring at 60-90 ℃ for 4-6 hours, cooling the reaction liquid, and then separating out solid particles obtained by reaction by using a precipitator, such as ethyl acetate. The titanium salt is a precursor salt corresponding to a metal oxide which can be used as an electron transport layer, and includes but is not limited to titanium nitrate, titanium chloride, titanium sulfate, titanium bromide and the like; such alcohols include, but are not limited to, isopropanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, methanol, and the like; the alkali solution includes, but is not limited to, ammonia, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, ethanolamine, ethylene glycol, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, ethylenediamine, etc. Further, in the step of the salt solution, the concentration of the metal salt is 0.2-1mol/L, and when the concentration of the metal salt is lower than 0.2mol/L, the reaction rate is slow; when the concentration of the metal salt is more than 1mol/L, the reaction rate is high, and the agglomeration of the nano particles can be caused. In addition, in the step of adding the alkali liquor into the salt solution for mixing, the pH value of the mixed solution is adjusted to 12-13, the pH value is directly related to the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution, and the generation of titanium dioxide nano materials is not facilitated when the pH value is too large or too small.
