Specifically, in step S01, the precursor solution of zinc, cadmium and sulfur refers to a solution containing Cd1-xZnxA zinc source, a cadmium source and a sulfur source required by the S quantum dot.
In some embodiments, the method of configuring a precursor solution comprising zinc, cadmium, sulfur is: under inert atmosphere, putting zinc salt and cadmium salt into a mixed solvent of fatty acid and hydrocarbon with the boiling point higher than the reaction temperature, and heating and dissolving at the temperature of 100-260 ℃ to obtain a precursor solution of zinc and cadmium; adding a sulfur source precursor into the zinc and cadmium precursor solution to prepare the precursor solution containing zinc, cadmium and sulfur; wherein the hydrocarbon is an alkane or alkene. In the method for preparing the precursor solution containing zinc, cadmium and sulfur provided by this embodiment, a mixed solution of zinc salt and cadmium salt is prepared first, that is, a cation precursor solution is prepared first, and after the cations are completely dissolved, a sulfur source precursor solution is added. By the method, the two cations can be uniformly dispersed and in a proper reaction state, and then the cation precursor can uniformly react with the sulfur source precursor after the sulfur source precursor is added.
Wherein, a mixed solvent of fatty acid and hydrocarbon with the boiling point higher than the reaction temperature is adopted as a dissolving solvent of the zinc salt and the cadmium salt, wherein the hydrocarbon is alkane or alkene. On one hand, the mixed solvent of fatty acid and alkane or alkene has better solubility to zinc salt and cadmium salt, and on the other hand, the mixed solvent of fatty acid and alkane or alkene, especially the mixed solvent of high boiling point fatty acid and alkane or alkene, can ensure that the reaction is carried out in a stable medium system. In the embodiments of the present invention, the high boiling point alkane or alkene is typically a long chain alkane or a long chain alkene.
Wherein, the zinc salt and the cadmium salt are placed in a mixed solvent of fatty acid and alkane or a mixed solvent of fatty acid and alkene, the boiling point of which is higher than the reaction temperature, and the zinc salt and the cadmium salt can be placed in the mixed solvent together; or preparing a zinc salt solution and a cadmium salt solution by respectively using the mixed solution as a solvent, and mixing the zinc salt solution and the cadmium salt solution to obtain the cadmium-doped zinc oxide material; the mixed solution can also be used as a solvent, a zinc salt (or cadmium salt) solution is prepared first, and then the cadmium salt (or zinc salt) is added.
Wherein, the heating condition with the temperature range of 100-260 ℃ can further promote the dissolution of zinc salt and cadmium salt in the mixed solvent of fatty acid and alkane or alkene, so that the zinc salt and cadmium salt are in a complete dissolution state in a solvent system, and a favorable reaction state is provided for the reaction with a sulfur source precursor.
In some embodiments, the concentration of the zinc and the cadmium in the precursor solution comprising zinc, cadmium and sulfur is 0.02mmol/ml to 0.5 mmol/ml. Because the nucleation process of the quantum dots is a curing and growing process, in the reaction process, if the concentration of reactants such as the sum of the concentrations of zinc and cadmium is too high or too low, the concentration of reaction activated particles is different, uniform nano particles cannot be formed in the curing process, the obtained quantum dots have the phenomenon of nonuniform size or morphology, the phenomenon is reflected in a spectrum, namely the broadening and asymmetry of a fluorescence emission spectrum, and meanwhile, the problems of yield reduction of the quantum dots and the like are often accompanied.
In some embodiments, in the precursor solution comprising zinc, cadmium and sulfur, the ratio of zinc to cadmium in a molar ratio of 0.1: 1-10: 1, wherein the molar ratio of sulfur to cadmium is 1: 1-10: 11 preparing a precursor solution containing zinc, cadmium and sulfur.
In the embodiment of the invention, Cd is obtained by heating to the reaction temperature under the inert atmosphere1-xZnxIn the step of the S quantum dot core solution, the reaction temperature ranges from 270 ℃ to 310 ℃, and the reaction time ranges from 5 minutes to 30 minutes. Under the condition of the temperature, cadmium and zinc are alloyed and reacted, and simultaneously, cadmium and sulfur are reacted to generate Cd1-xZnxAnd S. If the reaction temperature is too low, cadmium-zinc alloying is difficult to realize, so Cd cannot be obtained by reaction1-xZnxAnd S. With the increase of the temperature, the better the crystallinity of the obtained quantum dot is, and the stability is enhanced. However, if the reaction temperature is too high, higher than 310 ℃, the solvent used as the reaction medium is volatilized, which is unfavorable for the reaction.
In a preferred embodiment, precursor solution containing zinc, cadmium and sulfur is prepared and heated to reaction temperature under inert atmosphere to obtain Cd1-xZnxThe step of preparing the S quantum dot core solution comprises the following steps: under inert atmosphere, putting zinc salt and cadmium salt into a mixed solvent of fatty acid and hydrocarbon with the boiling point higher than the reaction temperature, and heating and dissolving at the temperature of 100-260 ℃ to obtain a precursor solution of zinc and cadmium; continuously heating to the reaction temperature, adding a sulfur source precursor into the precursor solution of the zinc and the cadmium, and reacting to prepare the Cd1-xZnxAn S quantum dot core. In the method, after heating and dissolving zinc salt and cadmium salt, further heating to reaction temperature to prepare for synthesis of quantum dots, and after adding a sulfur source precursor, reacting the sulfur source at a proper temperature to generate Cd1-xZnxAn S quantum dot core. If the zinc salt, the cadmium salt and the sulfur source are heated together, the zinc salt, the cadmium salt and the sulfur source also react in the heating process, but because the activity of cadmium is far higher than that of zinc at low temperature, cadmium sulfide is generated at first at low temperature, so that the sulfur can not better react with alloyed zinc and cadmium to generate zinc-cadmium-sulfur alloy quantum dots, and part of finally obtained products are not Cd1-xZnxAnd the S quantum dot core reduces the purity of the product. More preferably, the concentration range of the zinc and cadmium precursor solution is 0.02 mmol/mL-0.5 mmol/mL.
