Patent attributes
The invention relates to a self-passivating quantum dot and a preparation method thereof. The quantum dot is doped with a self-passivating element M and the self-passivating element M ranges from 0.1 wt % to 40 wt % in content. The self-passivating element M is selected from the group consisting of Al, Zr, Fe, Ti, Cr, Ta, Si, and Ni. The preparation method comprises the steps of: adding a quantum dot core and a solvent into a reaction vessel, controlling the temperature to be 100-120° C. and vacuumizing the reaction vessel for 30-50 min; filling the reaction vessel with inert gas, and rising the temperature to 230-280° C.; and injecting a coating material precursor solution into the reaction vessel for coating the quantum dot core according to the injection amount being 1 or 2 times by molar concentration of the quantum dot core element to prepare the self-passivating quantum dot.
