Abstract: The invention provides a method for preparing a nanosized mixed crystal of cyanuric acid-coated halide perovskite, and use thereof. The method includes: (1) dispersing cesium halide, a lead salt, and urea in water, and stirring to obtain a mixed solution; and (2) adding phosphoric acid to the mixed solution, and subjecting to microwave heating, to obtain a solid after water is evaporated off, which is allowed to stand to obtain the nanosized mixed crystal of cyanuric acid coated halide perovskite. The method is simple, reproducible, and low in cost, with which mass production is achievable, and the emission wavelength of the obtained product is adjustable within a certain range through heat treatment. Due to the passivation and protection effects of cyanuric acid on halide perovskite, the prepared nanosized mixed crystal has excellent luminescence performance and stability, and is useful in the preparation of a high-color-point quantum dot brightness enhancement film.

Abstract: A driver circuit is for driving a GaN power commutation switch of a switch mode power converter. A sensing component is connected to the GaN switch for sensing a parameter such as a peak current of the power commutation. An energy storage component provides a certain turn on voltage between the gate and source of the GaN switch. The charging and discharging of the energy storage component is regulated, and the sensing is disabled with timing which is synchronized with the charging and discharging function of the energy storage component. It is prevented that a voltage across the sensing component reduces the generated gate-source drive voltage of the GaN switch.
