发光二极管及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明属于发光二极管技术领域,尤其涉及一种发光二极管(发光二极管)及其制备方法。
背景技术
近年来,随着科技的进步,显示技术取得了快速的发展。现代显示技术根据信息显示的主要方式分为阴极射线管(Cathode Ray Tube, CRT)和平板显示(Flat Panel Display, FPD)。目前市场上,传统的CRT技术已基本在显示技术历史舞台上淡出,而各种新型的平板显示技术逐渐兴起。在平板显示技术中,发光二极管(Light Emitting Diode, LED)与液晶显示技术(Liquid Crystal Display, LCD)相比,在色彩表现、节约能源等方面具有突出的优势,成为具有巨大发展潜力的新型显示技术,其中,目前研究最多且发展前景最大的发光二极管主要包括有机发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode, OLED)和量子点发光二极管(Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diode, QLED)。
对于薄膜发光二极管,特别是有机发光二极管和量子点发光二极管,目前最有希望实现大规模产业化的生产工艺是墨水打印法。传统的印刷型薄膜发光二极管,一般是将发光层墨水或其他功能层墨水打印到带有阵列的条形凹槽衬底上,溶剂挥发后沉积成薄膜。然而,在打印过程中,发光层墨水或功能层墨水的配方、印刷用衬底的质量、打印设备的精确度等都对膜层的均匀性有至关重要的影响,极易造成“咖啡环”等成膜不均匀等现象。除此之外,目前印刷薄膜发光二极管所用的衬底结构复杂、制作工艺复杂、对环境污染大、且其结构形状并不完全利于膜层的沉积,同时,衬底材料、衬底厚度和凹槽边缘的高度等因素会使产品厚度较大,且不利于做成柔性器件。此外,量子点发光二极管中,由于量子点的颗粒尺寸较普通粒子或有机小分子大,并且量子点表面含有丰富的有机配体,成膜后量子点颗粒之间的连接并不紧密,膜层相对松散,同时与其下方的空穴传输层之间紧密度低,膜层相对松散,沉积后的量子点仍有很大机会在后续其他功能层的溶液法成膜过程中重新溶解带走或直接冲走,导致量子点膜层不均匀、界面缺陷较大,进而导致器件发光不均匀。即使采用难溶解量子点的溶剂,也难以避免该过程的发生,而且也因为这样,后续功能层材料的选择也会受到其可选溶剂的限制。
技术问题
本发明的目的在于提供一种发光二极管及其制备方法,旨在解决现有发光二极管成膜均匀性差导致器件发光不均匀的问题。
技术解决方案
本发明是这样实现的,一种发光二极管,包括相对设置的衬底和顶电极,所述衬底包括基板和设置在所述基板上的底电极,且所述底电极和所述顶电极之间设置有发光层,所述发光二极管还包括用于锚定相邻功能层的石墨烯层,且所述石墨烯层的表面修饰有第一活性官能团;
其中,所述衬底为凹槽衬底,所述底电极为第一石墨烯电极,所述石墨烯层为层叠结合在所述底电极上的石墨烯层,所述石墨烯层为图案化石墨烯层,且所述第一活性官能团修饰在所述石墨烯层朝向所述发光层的表面,所述图案化石墨烯层通过所述第一活性官能团与背对所述底电极的相邻功能层结合;
所述发光二极管为量子点发光二极管器件,所述发光层为量子点发光层,所述石墨烯层为设置在所述量子点发光层与所述底电极之间的石墨烯像素阵列,且所述量子点发光层通过所述第一活性官能团与所述石墨烯像素阵列结合。
以及,一种发光二极管的制备方法,所述发光二极管为量子点发光二极管,包括以下步骤:
沉积石墨烯层,对所述石墨烯层进行图案化处理形成石墨烯像素阵列,对所述石墨烯像素阵列的至少一表面进行修饰处理,使所述石墨烯像素阵列表面修饰有第一活性官能团,得到石墨烯像素阵列;
提供衬底,所述衬底包括基板和设置在所述基板上的底电极,将所述石墨烯像素阵列转印到所述底电极上,且使得背对所述底电极所述石墨烯像素阵列的表面经过修饰处理修饰有所述第一活性官能团;
在所述石墨烯像素阵列上依次沉积量子点发光层。
有益效果
本发明提供的发光二极管,包括用于石墨烯层,且所述石墨烯层的表面修饰有第一活性官能团,所述石墨烯层可以通过表面的所述第一活性官能团锚定相邻的功能层,从而形成平整、牢固的膜层。具体的,
当发光二极管为量子点发光二极管器件,且所述石墨烯层为设置在所述量子点发光层与所述底电极之间的石墨烯像素阵列时,一方面,通过所述石墨烯像素阵列表面的活性官能团,可以将所述量子点发光层中的量子点紧密地锚定在所述石墨烯像素阵列表面,从而形成致密均匀的量子点发光层,进而防止其在后续功能层的沉积过程中被溶剂溶解或冲走,提高了量子点发光层的成膜均匀性。另一方面,所述石墨烯像素阵列能够提供印刷位点(即覆盖有功能化石墨烯的区域能锚定量子点,而未覆盖功能化石墨烯区域的量子点在后续溶剂的冲洗下不能保留),从而能够代替目前常用的复杂且厚度较大的打印凹槽。此外,采用所述石墨烯像素阵列作为印刷位点,像素点的数量、距离等能够通过调节石墨烯层的图案灵活调节,提高了打印的灵活性和打印效率,且适于制备更轻薄的显示面板。
当所述石墨烯层为层叠结合在所述底电极上的图案化石墨烯层,且所述第一活性官能团修饰在所述石墨烯层朝向所述发光层的表面时,一方面,所述图案化石墨烯层能够为印刷型薄膜发光二极管提供打印位点,有利于各功能层的沉积。另一方面,所述石墨烯底电极可以直接作为印刷型薄膜发光二极管的导电电极,而在此基础上,形成的所述图案化石墨烯层可以作为空穴传输层。由于所述图案化石墨烯层含有丰富的活性官能团,所述活性官能团可以有效锚定进一步沉积的发光材料,从而形成均匀的发光层。而未覆盖所述图案化石墨烯层的区域由于不能锚定发光材料,在后续功能层的沉积过程中,可以通过溶剂清洗等途径能够轻松除去,最终有利于得到高分辨、高效率和高均匀性的印刷型薄膜发光二极管。
本发明提供的发光二极管器件的制备方法,通过将石墨烯像素阵列转印到底电极上,然后在所述石墨烯像素阵列修饰有活性官能团的表面沉积量子点,使得所述量子点能够通过所述活性官能团有效锚定在所述石墨烯像素阵列上,形成致密均匀的量子点发光层,提高了成膜均匀性。同时,采用所述石墨烯像素阵列作为印刷位点,可以简化发光二极管器件的制备工艺。且所述石墨烯像素阵列区域之外,由于偏离位点沉积的量子点能够通过清洗去除,从而提高了膜层的质量,进而有利于发光二极管器件性能的提高。本发明提供的发光二极管器件,具有优良的发光均匀性,较好的发光效率和器件稳定性,以及良好的结构设计灵活性。

为了使本发明要解决的技术问题、技术方案及有益效果更加清楚明白,以下结合实施例,对本发明进行进一步详细说明。应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用以解释本发明,并不用于限定本发明。
本发明实施例提供了一种发光二极管,包括相对设置的衬底和顶电极,所述衬底包括基板和设置在所述基板上的底电极,且所述底电极和所述顶电极之间设置有发光层,所述发光二极管还包括用于锚定相邻功能层的石墨烯层,且所述石墨烯层的表面修饰有第一活性官能团。
优选的,所述第一活性官能团为-OH、-COOH、-NH 2、-NH-、-NHCONH-、-SH、-CN、-SO 3H、-SOOH、-NO 2、-CONH 2、-CONH-、-COCl、-CO-、-O-、-COS-、-CH=N-、O=P(R) 2、-CHO、-Cl、-Br中的至少一种,但不限于此。优选的所述第一活性官能团,具有较好的反应活性,有利于与相邻的功能层如发光层、电子或空穴功能层材料键合连接,从而有效形成发光二极管的打印位点。特别的,当相邻的功能层为量子点发光层时,优选的所述第一活性官能团既可以与量子点表面的配体连接,也可以直接与量子点连接,双重锚定量子点,从而将所述量子点有效固定在所述石墨烯像素阵列表面。此外,优选的活性官能团能还能与量子点表面缺陷连接,同时起到钝化量子点表面缺陷的作用,进一步提高器件效率。进一步优选的,所述量子点发光二极管中的第一活性官能团为-OH、-COOH、-NH 2、-NH-、-SH、-CN、-SO 3H、-SOOH、-NO 2、-CONH 2、-CONH-、-COCl、-CO-、-CHO、-Cl、-Br中的至少一种。
作为一种实施方式,所述衬底为凹槽衬底,所述底电极为第一石墨烯电极,所述石墨烯层为层叠结合在所述底电极上的石墨烯层,所述石墨烯层为图案化石墨烯层,且所述第一活性官能团修饰在所述石墨烯层朝向所述发光层的表面,所述图案化石墨烯层通过所述第一活性官能团与背对所述底电极的相邻功能层结合。
本发明实施例中,在基板上设置的第一石墨烯电极和图案化石墨烯层共同形成图案化复合层,形成印刷型薄膜LED的像素阵列。其中,所述第一石墨烯电极可以作为导电电极,所述图案化石墨烯层作为空穴传输层,在此基础上沉积发光层时,由于所述第二图案化石墨烯层在朝向所述发光层的表面修饰有活性官能团,因此,可以有效锚定发光层材料(未覆盖所述第二图案化石墨烯层的区域由于不能发光材料,在后续功能层的沉积过程中,可以通过溶剂清洗等途径能够轻松除去),有利于提高发光层的成膜均匀性,进而提高发光二极管特别是印刷型薄膜发光二极管的性能。
本发明实施例中,所述第一石墨烯电极可以为整层石墨烯层,也可以形成图案化。当所述第一石墨烯电极为图案化的第一石墨烯电极时,所述第一石墨烯电极的图案与所述图案化石墨烯层的图案一致,两者实现完全重叠。
本发明实施例中,所述第一石墨烯电极为单层石墨烯或多层石墨烯,优选为单层石墨烯。本发明实施例中,所述图案化石墨烯层为单层石墨烯或多层石墨烯。
优选的,所述图案化石墨烯层的功函数范围为4.8eV~5.2eV,赋予所述图案化石墨烯层优良的空穴传输性能,从而匹配不同的量子点发光材料,以更好实现能带匹配,提高其性能。本发明实施例可以通过调节石墨烯的氧化程度、表面官能团种类、掺杂离子类型等途径,调节其禁带宽度,从而调节其空穴传输能力。
作为另一种实施方式,所述发光二极管为量子点发光二极管,所述发光层为量子点发光层,所述石墨烯层为设置在所述量子点发光层与所述底电极之间的石墨烯像素阵列,且所述量子点发光层通过所述第一活性官能团与所述石墨烯像素阵列结合。
本发明中,量子点发光二极管可以为正型量子点发光二极管,也可以为反型量子点发光二极管。作为一种实施情形,所述量子点发光二极管为正型量子点发光二极管,即所述底电极为阳极,所述顶电极为阴极。进一步的,所述阳极和所述量子点发光层之间设置有空穴注入层和/或空穴传输层,所述阴极和所述量子点发光层之间设置有电子注入层和/或电子传输层。
作为另一种实施情形,所述量子点发光二极管为反型量子点发光二极管,即所述底电极为阴极,所述顶电极为阳极。进一步的,所述阴极和所述量子点发光层之间设置有电子注入层和/或电子传输层,所述阳极和所述量子点发光层之间设置有空穴注入层和/或空穴传输层。
上述两种实施情形中,具体的,所述石墨烯像素阵列表面修饰有所述第一活性官能团,且所述第一活性官能团修饰在所述石墨烯像素阵列背对所述底电极的表面,以便实现与量子点发光层的结合。本发明实施例中,所述石墨烯像素阵列的图案没有严格的限制,可以设计成具有任意大小、任意形状的阵列图案;且所述石墨烯像素阵列可中像素点的大小、像素点的形状、像素点之间的间隔、像素点组合可以灵活设计。
优选的,所述石墨烯像素阵列的厚度为1-150nm。若所述石墨烯像素阵列的厚度过薄,则第一活性官能团的量过少,无法充分实现量子点的锚定;若所述石墨烯像素阵列的厚度过厚,会造成激子复合困难,降低器件发光效率。进一步优选的,所述石墨烯像素阵列的厚度为5-50nm,从而在兼顾良好的发光效率,实现量子点发光层与所述石墨烯像素阵列的紧密结合。
在上述实施例的基础上,进一步优选的,在所述石墨烯像素阵列的阵列之间(即没有覆盖功能化石墨烯的区域)设置有疏水疏氧隔绝层。所述疏水疏氧绝缘层一方面能够在沉积量子点发光层及其他功能层时,发挥隔板的作用,将各像素点隔离,有利于提高各功能层的沉积质量。且与传统的隔板相比,所述疏水疏氧隔绝层的厚度可以非常薄,从而能够制备出超薄的印刷量子点发光二极管。另一方面,所述疏水疏氧隔绝层具有疏水疏氧特点,从而有效防止由于沉积偏离在非像素点区域残留量子点,同时提高量子点发光二极管的防水防氧性能,提高印刷量子点发光二极管的分辨率及使用寿命。
具体的,所述疏水疏氧隔绝层由疏水疏氧有机物和/或疏水疏氧无机物制成。进一步优选的,所述疏水疏氧有机物包括聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯、聚乙烯、聚丙烯、聚苯乙烯、聚氯乙烯、聚对苯二甲酸丁二醇酯、对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚酰亚胺、丁腈橡胶、氯苯橡胶、聚乙烯醇、聚碳酸酯、聚醚醚酮、聚醚砜、聚芳基酸酯、聚芳酯、聚乙烯吡咯烷酮、有机硅中的至少一种,但不限于此。所述疏水疏氧无机物为二氧化硅、三氧化二铝、氧化锆、氧化镁中的至少一种,但不限于此。优选的疏水疏氧隔绝层材料,可以更好地实现上述性能。
进一步优选的,所述量子点发光二极管中,所述底电极为图案化的第二石墨烯电极。所述第二石墨烯电极的选择可与所述第一石墨烯电极相同。进一步的,所述第二石墨烯电极表面设置有疏水层,所述第二石墨烯电极背对所述基板的表面修饰有第二活性官能团,所述疏水层中的疏水材料与所述第二活性官能团键合连接,从而牢固结合所述第二石墨烯电极,形成图案化的疏水区域(即图案化复合层),所述图案化复合层围合形成像素阵列凹槽。本发明实施例提供的所述像素阵列凹槽内壁(没沉积疏水层的部分)和底部,没有进行疏水处理,因此,对打印墨水具有亲和性,有利于各功能层的沉积。而用于隔离像素阵列的图案化复合层,由于进行了表面疏水处理,印刷过程中墨水不能有效浸润、成膜,从而在印刷功能层时,可以防止串色,并有效提高了发光二极管的印刷性能,进而提高器件的发光均匀性和器件稳定性。此外,采用本发明实施例提供的LED衬底,能满足各种超薄刚性或柔性器件的要求,简化了工艺复杂程度,提高了薄膜发光二极管结构的可塑性。
具体的,本发明实施例中,所述第二石墨烯电极背对所述基板的表面修饰有第二活性官能团。所述第二活性官能团能够与所述疏水材料键合结合,从而将所述疏水层牢固结合在所述图案化石墨烯层;而所述第二石墨烯电极以外的其他区域,由于不具备含有第二表面活性官能团的石墨烯,不能结合疏水材料而不具备疏水性,可以保证各功能层的顺利打印。由此,提高了印刷用薄膜LED衬底的打印性能。本发明实施例中,所述第二石墨烯电极中的石墨烯没有严格限定,可以为单层石墨烯或多层石墨烯。优选的,所述第二活性官能团为-OH、-COOH、-NH 2、-NH-、-SH、-CN、-SO 3H、-SOOH、-NO 2、-CONH 2、-CONH-、-COCl、-CO-、-CHO、-Cl、-Br中的至少一种,但不限于此。优选的所述第二活性官能团,具有较好的反应活性,有利于与所述疏水材料的结合。
本发明实施例中,所述疏水材料为有机高分子化合物。优选的,所述有机高分子化合物为聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯、聚乙烯、聚丙烯、聚苯乙烯、聚氯乙烯、聚对苯二甲酸丁二醇酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚酰亚胺、丁腈橡胶、氯苯橡胶、聚乙烯醇、聚碳酸酯、聚醚醚酮、聚醚砜、聚芳基酸酯、聚芳酯、聚乙烯吡咯烷酮、聚四氟乙烯、有机硅及其衍生物中的至少一种。优选的所述有机高分子化合物,不仅具有较好的疏水性能,能够形成图案化的疏水区域,而且,上述有机高分子化合物与所述第二活性官能团、特别是优选的第二活性官能团具有较好的反应活性,有利于疏水材料的固定和疏水区域的形成。
在上述实施方式的基础上,用于本发明实施例的基板可以为刚性基板或柔性基板。具体的,所述基板为刚性基板或柔性基板,其中,所述刚性基板包括玻璃、金属箔片;所述柔性衬底包括聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚醚醚酮、聚苯乙烯、聚醚砜、聚碳酸酯、聚芳基酸酯、聚芳酯、聚酰亚胺、聚氯乙烯、聚乙烯、聚乙烯吡咯烷酮、纺织纤维。
