  • Publication number: 20240010512
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method for regulating an electron mobility of a zinc oxide, and the method includes following step: preparing the zinc oxide, wherein the electron mobility of the zinc oxide is regulated by controlling a surface hydroxyl content of the zinc oxide during the preparation of the zinc oxide. In the method for regulating the electron mobility of the zinc oxide provided by the embodiment of the present application, carrier injection balance or improving electron mobility of quantum dot light-emitting diode devices can be achieved only by adjusting the surface hydroxyl content of the zinc oxide, without changing the device structure (inserting the electron barrier layer) or modifying the zinc oxide film by doping and other methods. The whole process is simple and low-cost, and has a good repeatability.

  • Publication number: 20230157045
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a nanomaterial, a light-emitting diode device, and a preparation method thereof. The nanomaterial includes a ZnO nanoparticle and an In2O3 shell layer covering a surface of the ZnO nanoparticle. In the present disclosure, the In2O3 shell layer are coated on the surface of the ZnO nanoparticle to form a ZnO@ In2O3 core shell structure, that is, prepare the nanomaterial. In the present disclosure, In2O3 having a wide bandgap is used as a shell layer to cover a semiconductor ZnO nanoparticle having a relatively narrow bandgap, which can effectively passivate the surface of the ZnO nanoparticle to reduce the surface defects and relieve lattice mismatch. Meanwhile, holes may be effectively blocked from being transported from a light-emitting layer to a cathode to improve the recombination efficiency of electrons and holes on the light-emitting layer. Thus, the light-emitting performance of the light-emitting device may be improved.

  • Publication number: 20230038312
    Abstract: A light-emitting diode and a preparation method of the light-emitting diode are provided in the present application. The light-emitting diode includes an anode and a cathode which are arranged opposite to each other, a luminescent layer arranged between the anode and the cathode, an electron transport layer arranged between the cathode and the luminescent layer, and a composite film arranged between the cathode and the electron transport layer. Where the composite film includes an aluminum oxide film arranged adjacent to the electron transport layer, and a nano metal oxide film or a silicon nitride film arranged away from the electron transport layer. The light-emitting diode according to the present application may block water and oxygen from infiltrating into it effectively, so that a poor stability of the light-emitting diode device in a water-oxygen environment is improved.

  • Patent number: 11176384
    Abstract: An apparatus for object detection around a vehicle includes an imaging device mounted on the vehicle and a computing device. The imaging device is used to capture a video of an exterior environment of the vehicle. The computing device is used to execute a DSFPN module in order to provide a DSFPN model detector, which functions as a perception unit to process and analyze the video captured by the imaging device and to estimate a scale, a location and categories of an object. The DSFPN model detector includes a bottom-up subnet provided with auxiliary prediction heads, and a top-down subnet provided with prediction heads. When the DSFPN model detector is performed in a model training stage, both the prediction heads and the auxiliary prediction heads are used. In a detection stage, only the prediction heads are used in the DSFPN model detector, and the auxiliary prediction heads are removed.
