Abstract

Proposed are luminescent nanoparticles and a method of preparing the same. The luminescent nanoparticles include a core-shell composite and a polymer brush grafted on the surface of the composite, in which the composite is composed of a core containing porous silica nanoparticles and CsPbX 3 (X is a halogen) perovskite nanocrystal supported in the porous silica nanoparticles and a lead-containing silicate shell formed on the surface of the core.

Claims (18)

1 . A luminescent nanoparticle comprising a composite and a polymer brush grafted on a surface of the composite, the composite comprising:

a core containing a porous silica nanoparticle, a CsPbX 3 perovskite nanocrystal supported in the porous silica nanoparticle and a lead-containing silicate shell formed on a surface of the core, wherein X is a halogen.

2 . The luminescent nanoparticle of claim 1 , wherein the porous silica nanoparticles have a size in a range of 100 to 500 nm and an average pore diameter in a range of 1 to 10 nm.

3 . The luminescent nanoparticle of claim 1 , wherein the polymer brush comprises an acrylic polymer prepared by an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) reaction.

4 . The luminescent nanoparticle of claim 1 , wherein the halogen X is any one or a mixture of two or more selected from the group consisting of Br, Cl, and I.

5 . A method of preparing luminescent nanoparticles, the method comprising:

d) grafting a polymer brush on the surface-modified composite, wherein the composite comprises: a core containing porous silica nanoparticles, and CsPbX 3 perovskite nanocrystals supported in the porous silica nanoparticles; and a lead-containing silicate shell formed on a surface of the core, wherein X is a halogen.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the calcining is performed in a range of 300° C. to 1000° C.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the calcining is performed for 1 to 10 hours.

8 .
