Alternative Abstract
This Paper aims to understanding and improvement of the quantum dots (QDs) which is the most highlighted nano material. Some tasks should be carried out for the commercialization and popularization of QDs. i) Mass production : The main synthetic methods in lab scale are not suitable for mass production. ii) Enhancement of property and Finding new property : Nano sized materials show unique properties which are not shown in bulk state. So, it is very interesting that they show property change with change of their size. The critical condition for property improvement should be checked out. The research about a novel property on their size changes in nano scale also should be conducted. iii) Stabilization: QDs is a very tiny particle that they have a large surface area. The large surface area is a key point of unique property for nano-sized materials, but the unstable surface should be stabilized essentially. Namely, surface oxidation and aggregation that reducing the properties should be suppressed for further application. The new structural and process designs are proposed to solve these tasks. In chapter 1, It is mentioned about the enhancement of property of PbS QDS via new structural design. PbS is usually used as a light absorber in solar cell, and the large amount of light absorption can lead the improvement of power conversion efficiency(PCE). Copper cation is introduced by cation exchange reaction into the pristine PbS, and CuS is partially embedded in PbS. CuS can absorb the IR range through SPR effect, amount of the total absorbed light is dramatically increased. Besides, the exciton is separated into electron and hole freely in CuS, the energy consumption for separation of exciton is saved. The final PEC of 8.07% is obtained under 1 sun condition (100mWcm-2 AM 1.5G). (Voc 0.6V, Jsc 20.7mAcm-2, FF 65%) In chapter 2, It is mentioned about the stability improvement of PbS QDs via new structural design. The PbS which has a large surface area can be oxidized easily. In solar cell fabrication, new protection method is needed, because outer shell which can protect the surface is limited due to the electron and hole extraction. The galvanic protection method is used for surface protection. The surface can be protected by introducing magnesium which is more easily oxidized than the lead. The immoderate oxidation occurs when excess magnesium is used. The magnesium oxide acts as seed of oxidation. The improved stability is confirmed by stability test using solar cell. They have worked stably for two days without property change. The final PCE of 4.4% is obtained under 1 sun condition (100mWcm-2 AM 1.5G). (Voc 0.6V, Jsc 11.8mAcm-2, FF 62.8%) In chapter 3, The galvanic protection method is applied to other QDs. It was applied to InP/GaP/ZnS which already have outer shell. They also present improved stability. It is confirmed by fabrication of white light device, and they present good results. They show a resistance to thermal stress during the fabrication procedure, they show a compatibility with relative materials. Finally, The PCE of 129.57lmW-1, CRI of 84.4 CCT of 3799k were obtained. In chapter 4, It is mentioned about the new synthetic procedure for mass production of InP/GaP/ZnS. The heating-up method was used instead of the established hot-injection method. The core/shell/shell structure has been synthesized at once. InP core and GaP inner shell can be synthesized sequentially due to the reactivity difference of phosphorus between indium and gallium. In last step, reaction can be controlled by addition of dodecanethiol (DDT). The growth of core is inhibited by addition of DDT at low temperature, and ZnS outer shell is formed. The thickness of ZnS shell is tuned by the kinds of used DDT. The n-DDT which have low reactivity form a thin outer shell, and the t-DDT which have high reactivity form a thick outer shell. The entire visible range was realized by core size control using this method. T the optical property is kept, although the reaction is finished within 30 min. In chapter 5, It is mentioned about the stability improvement through formation of QD-polymer composite via in-situ solvent polymerization. The double bond on ODE used as a solvent is activated with alkyl aluminum catalyst after the QD synthesis. To compared with other polymerizations, the QDs are uniformly embedded in the composite due to the direct polymerization of uniformly dispersed QDs. The polymer can protect the QDs stably by forming a protection layer. The white light device was fabricated to confirm the stability of QD-polymer composite. They present improved stability compared with bare QDs which present a low stability during the fabrication procedure. Especially, target CCT and high CRI can be achieved by mixing up with green and red composite, and they show a great possibility for high functional lighting.
