The present invention relates to a metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate, a method of producing a metal oxide nanocrystal, and a method of producing a metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate.
Priority is claimed on Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-129716, filed June 30, 2017, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
 金属酸化物であるチタン酸鉛(PT)やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛(PZT)は、優れた圧電効果を示す圧電体として知られている。こうしたチタン酸鉛やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛のナノ結晶(ナノキューブ)は、サイズに起因した特徴的な物性を発現し、新規材料としての応用が期待されている。 Lead oxide (PT) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT), which are metal oxides, are known as piezoelectrics exhibiting an excellent piezoelectric effect. Such lead titanate and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals (nanocubes) exhibit characteristic physical properties due to size, and are expected to be applied as novel materials.
 従来のチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の製造方法として、例えば、非特許文献1には、酢酸鉛粉末およびEDTAを水に分散し、これに酸化チタン粉末およびオキシ塩化ジルコニウムを水に分散した原料粉末を加えて、オートクレーブを用いて水熱合成することにより、チタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の粉末を製造することが記載されている。
 非特許文献1に記載されたチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の製造方法によれば、立方体形状であり、サイズが数μm程度に揃ったチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の微粒子を製造できるとされている。
As a conventional method for producing lead zirconate titanate, for example, according to Non-Patent Document 1, lead acetate powder and EDTA are dispersed in water, to which is added raw material powder in which titanium oxide powder and zirconium oxychloride are dispersed in water. It is described that lead zirconate titanate powder is produced by hydrothermal synthesis using an autoclave.
According to the method for producing lead zirconate titanate described in Non-Patent Document 1, it is believed that fine particles of lead zirconate titanate having a cubic shape and a uniform size of about several μm can be produced.
 また、特許文献1には、鉛化合物、チタン化合物、およびジルコニウム化合物を特定範囲の混合比率で混合し、この混合原料を特定のpH範囲で熟成してから塩基性物質を加えて水熱合成することにより、0.5~10μmなどのミクロンサイズの粒子のチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛が得られることが記載されている。 Further, in Patent Document 1, a lead compound, a titanium compound, and a zirconium compound are mixed at a mixing ratio in a specific range, this mixed raw material is aged in a specific pH range, and then a basic substance is added to hydrothermally synthesize. It is described that lead zirconate titanate particles of micron size such as 0.5 to 10 μm can be obtained.

 しかしながら、非特許文献1や特許文献1に記載されているチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の微粒子の製造方法では、そのサイズに起因した特徴的な物性の発現が期待される、例えばサイズが数十nmから数百nm程度のチタン酸鉛およびチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛のナノ結晶(ナノキューブ)を安定して製造することが困難である。 However, in the method for producing fine particles of lead zirconate titanate described in Non-Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 1, the development of characteristic physical properties attributed to its size is expected, for example, from several tens of nm in size It is difficult to stably produce lead titanate and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals (nanocubes) on the order of several hundred nm.
 また、従来、こうしたチタン酸鉛やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の微粒子を用いて、基板の表面にチタン酸鉛やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の微粒子を配列集積させた膜や、単独で基板上に分散させた膜の形成(以下、固定化という)の際には、膜を形成した後の基板の焼成や、基板に凹凸を形成するためにエッチングを行うなどの複雑な工程が必要であった。このため、チタン酸鉛やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛の微粒子を含む膜が形成された基板を低コストで簡易に製造する方法が望まれている。 Also, conventionally, using such fine particles of lead titanate or lead zirconate titanate, a film in which fine particles of lead titanate or lead zirconate titanate are arrayed and accumulated on the surface of the substrate, or separately dispersed on the substrate In forming the film (hereinafter referred to as immobilization), complicated processes such as baking of the substrate after forming the film and etching for forming irregularities on the substrate are required. For this reason, a method of easily producing a substrate on which a film containing fine particles of lead titanate or lead zirconate titanate is formed at low cost is desired.

 本発明で用いる四級アンモニウム化合物としては、例えば、テトラメチルアンモニウムヒドロキシド(Tetramethylammonium hydroxide)以下「TMAH」)が挙げられる。TMAHは比較的安定した固体の五水和物の形で存在し、水に溶解すると水溶液は強塩基性を示す。 As a quaternary ammonium compound used by this invention, tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide (Tetramethylammonium hydroxide) or less "TMAH" is mentioned, for example. TMAH exists in the form of a relatively stable solid pentahydrate, and when dissolved in water, the aqueous solution exhibits strong basicity.
 本発明では、上述した混合溶液において、鉛1モルに対する四級アンモニウム化合物のモル数が2以上100以下の範囲になるように、酢酸鉛と、四級アンモニウム化合物とを混合する。これにより、後述する加熱工程においてナノ結晶の合成反応を十分に進行させることができ、かつ合成するナノ結晶の凝集を十分に抑制して、ナノメートルサイズにすることができる。 In the present invention, lead acetate and the quaternary ammonium compound are mixed such that the number of moles of the quaternary ammonium compound with respect to 1 mol of lead is in the range of 2 or more and 100 or less in the mixed solution described above. Thereby, the synthesis reaction of the nanocrystals can be sufficiently advanced in the heating step described later, and the aggregation of the synthesized nanocrystals can be sufficiently suppressed to make the nanometer size.
 鉛1モルに対する四級アンモニウム化合物のモル数が2未満の場合には、後述する加熱工程において合成反応が十分に進行せず、また、ナノ結晶の形状が十分に制御されず、きれいな六面体にならないという問題点がある。また、鉛1モルに対する四級アンモニウム化合物のモル数が100を超える場合、加熱工程での合成反応終了後に残渣を完全に取り除くのが困難になるという問題点がある。 When the number of moles of the quaternary ammonium compound to 1 mole of lead is less than 2, the synthesis reaction does not proceed sufficiently in the heating step described later, and the shape of the nanocrystals is not sufficiently controlled and does not become a clean hexahedron There is a problem of that. In addition, when the number of moles of the quaternary ammonium compound with respect to 1 mol of lead exceeds 100, there is a problem that it becomes difficult to completely remove the residue after completion of the synthesis reaction in the heating step.

 本発明で用いる反応溶液の加熱は、1時間以上120時間以下の間実施されることが好ましく、70時間以上100時間以下の間実施されることがより好ましい。加熱時間が1時間未満の場合には、ナノ結晶の合成反応が十分に進行しないという問題点がある。また、加熱時間が120時間を超えてもナノ結晶の形状はさほど変化しないため、これ以上の加熱は必要ではないと考えられる。 The heating of the reaction solution used in the present invention is preferably performed for 1 hour or more and 120 hours or less, more preferably 70 hours or more and 100 hours or less. If the heating time is less than one hour, there is a problem that the synthesis reaction of nanocrystals does not proceed sufficiently.

It is possible to obtain nanometer-sized lead titanate nanocrystals and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals having a controlled hexahedral structure without advancing and performing wasteful heating.
 この後、金属酸化物ナノ結晶を合成した後の混合溶液の遠心分離を行う。そして、金属酸化物ナノ結晶を沈殿させ、濾過などによって残液と分離(分離回収)する(分離工程)。こうした分離工程によって、不要な小さな結晶などを取り除き、サイズが制御された六面体状の構造を持つチタン酸鉛ナノ結晶、チタン酸ジルコン酸鉛ナノ結晶を得ることができる。 After this, the mixed solution after synthesizing the metal oxide nanocrystals is centrifuged. Then, the metal oxide nanocrystals are precipitated, and separated from the remaining solution (separation and recovery) by filtration or the like (separation step). By such separation step, unnecessary small crystals and the like can be removed, and lead titanate nanocrystals and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals having a hexahedral structure whose size is controlled can be obtained.

Next, the method for producing the metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate of the present invention will be described.
The metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate obtained by the method for producing a metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate according to the present invention is a nanocrystal comprising a substrate and metal oxide nanocrystals arranged or immobilized on the substrate. And a membrane. The metal oxide constituting the metal oxide nanocrystal is lead titanate or lead zirconate titanate.
 基板としては、溶媒に対して安定でかつ吸湿性がないものであれば適用可能であり、平坦な表面を有するものが好ましく、例えば、FTO、ITO、ガラス、シリコン、金属、セラミックス、ポリマー、紙、ゴム、及び、低耐熱性基材の群から選択されたものを用いることができる。 As the substrate, any substrate which is stable to a solvent and not hygroscopic can be used, and one having a flat surface is preferable. For example, FTO, ITO, glass, silicon, metal, ceramics, polymer, paper , And rubber and low heat resistant substrates selected from the group of can be used.
 また、基板の表面には、エッチングによって除去可能な凹凸を形成しておくことができる。こうした凹凸によって、ナノ結晶膜を基板上で任意の形状に形成することができる。基板の厚さ方向からの平面視における凹凸の形状としては、例えば、直線状、曲線状、円形状のうち、いずれか1つのパターン形状にすることができる。 Further, on the surface of the substrate, it is possible to form an unevenness which can be removed by etching. Such unevenness can form the nanocrystal film in any shape on the substrate. The shape of the asperities in plan view from the thickness direction of the substrate may be, for example, any one of linear, curved, and circular shapes.
 本実施形態では、こうした基板として、シリコンウェハに白金薄膜を形成したものを用いた。そして、ナノ結晶膜をこの基板上に多数の線状に形成するために、基板の表面に凹凸として、例えば、ポリイミドからなるモールドを幅数ミクロンのストライプ状に予め形成した。 In this embodiment, as such a substrate, a silicon wafer on which a platinum thin film is formed is used. Then, in order to form the nanocrystal film in a large number of linear shapes on this substrate, a mold made of polyimide, for example, was formed in advance in a stripe shape with a width of several microns as irregularities on the surface of the substrate.
 次に、前述した本発明の金属酸化物ナノ結晶の製造方法によって得られたチタン酸鉛ナノ結晶またはチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛ナノ結晶を、アルコール溶媒またはpH3以下の酸性溶媒に分散させてから遠心分離を行い、上澄みを回収してナノ結晶分散液を得る(分散工程)。 Next, the lead titanate nanocrystals or lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals obtained by the method for producing metal oxide nanocrystals of the present invention described above are dispersed in an alcohol solvent or an acidic solvent having a pH of 3 or less, and then centrifuged. And collect the supernatant to obtain a nanocrystal dispersion (dispersion step).
 そして、この分散工程で得られたナノ結晶分散液を基板上に塗布し、乾燥させる。これにより、ナノ結晶分散液が乾燥したナノ結晶膜が、基板上に固定化される(固定化工程)。この後、本実施形態のように、ストライプ状に形成したモールドを除去すれば、線状のモールド同士の間の溝に入り込んで固定化されたナノ結晶膜が残り、基板上にストライプパターンのナノ結晶膜を備えた金属酸化物ナノ結晶膜固定化基板を得ることができる。 Then, the nanocrystal dispersion obtained in this dispersion step is coated on a substrate and dried. Thereby, the nanocrystal film from which the nanocrystal dispersion liquid has been dried is immobilized on the substrate (immobilization step). After this, as in the present embodiment, if the mold formed in the stripe shape is removed, the nano-crystal film fixed and embedded in the groove between the linear molds remains, and the nano pattern of stripe pattern is formed on the substrate. A metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate provided with a crystal film can be obtained.
 本発明の金属酸化物ナノ結晶膜固定化基板の製造方法によれば、チタン酸鉛ナノ結晶やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛ナノ結晶を分散したナノ結晶膜を基板上に形成する際に、ナノ結晶分散液を基板に塗布して乾燥させるだけで、ナノ結晶膜が基板上に固定化されるので、従来のように、微細な結晶膜を基板上に形成するために焼成などの熱処理を行う必要が無い。これにより、例えばポリマー、紙、ゴム、などの低耐熱性基材で形成された基板であっても、チタン酸鉛ナノ結晶やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛ナノ結晶を分散したナノ結晶膜を固定化させることができる。 According to the method for producing a metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate of the present invention, when forming a nanocrystal film in which lead titanate nanocrystals and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals are dispersed on a substrate, the nanocrystal dispersion is performed. Since the nanocrystal film is immobilized on the substrate only by applying the liquid to the substrate and drying, it is necessary to perform heat treatment such as baking to form a fine crystal film on the substrate as in the prior art. There is not. Thereby, even for a substrate formed of a low heat resistant substrate such as polymer, paper, rubber, etc., a nanocrystal film in which lead titanate nanocrystals and lead zirconate titanate nanocrystals are dispersed is immobilized. be able to.
 また、ナノ結晶分散液を基板に塗布して乾燥させるといった簡易な工程で、低コストに、かつ容易に金属酸化物ナノ結晶膜固定化基板を得ることができる。
 更に、基板上に予め任意のパターンのモールドなど、除去が容易な凹凸を形成しておけば、基板を予めエッチングしなくても、任意のパターンでチタン酸鉛ナノ結晶やチタン酸ジルコン酸鉛ナノ結晶を分散したナノ結晶膜を固定化させた金属酸化物ナノ結晶膜固定化基板を容易に形成することができる。
Moreover, the metal oxide nanocrystal film-immobilized substrate can be easily obtained at low cost by a simple process of applying the nanocrystal dispersion to the substrate and drying it.
Furthermore, if irregularities having an easy removal such as a mold of an arbitrary pattern are formed in advance on the substrate, lead titanate nanocrystals or lead zirconate titanate nano particles in an arbitrary pattern without etching the substrate beforehand. It is possible to easily form a metal oxide nanocrystal film immobilized substrate on which a nanocrystal film in which crystals are dispersed is immobilized.
