Embodiment 1

[0044] 1 mmol of CsBr and 1 mmol of PbBr.sub.2 were dissolved in 50 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), followed by adding 100 μl of hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS). After mixing and stirring for 1 hour, 0.5 g of fumed silica was added, followed by stirring. After mixing and stirring for 1 hour, the mixture was placed at 150° C. for evaporating the organic solvent DMSO and drying to form the quantum dot particle. Then, the quantum dot particle was mixed with an organic solution which was prepared by mixing 0.1 ml of n-hexanoic acid, 0.1 ml of n-octylamine and 10 ml of water, to form PbBr(OH) on the quantum dot layer. Thus, the quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiment was obtained.

[0045] After the aforesaid process, the quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiment was obtained.

[0046] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the quantum dot light emitting material 1 of the present embodiment comprises: a core 11 comprising an inorganic oxide; a quantum dot layer 12 covering the core 11 and comprising perovskite quantum dots; and a protection layer 13 covering the quantum dot layer 12, wherein the protection layer 13 comprises PbX(OH), and X is Cl, Br or I. In the present embodiment, the core 11 is a core formed by fumed silica, which has an irregular shape, and the average diameter of the core 11 is about 10 nm to 300 nm. In addition, in the present embodiment, the quantum dot layer 12 directly covers the surface 111 of the core 11. More specifically, the quantum dot layer 12 directly covers the unmodified surface 111 of the core 11. Furthermore, the quantum dot layer 12 is consisted of CsPbBr.sub.3 quantum dots. More specifically, the quantum dot layer 12 is consisted of CsPbBr.sub.3 quantum dot particles, and the average particle size of the CsPbBr.sub.3 quantum dot particles is about 1 nm to 50 nm. Moreover, the protection layer 13 is consisted of PbBr(OH), which may completely cover the whole surface of the quantum dot layer 12 to protect the quantum dot layer 12.

Embodiment 2

[0047] The method for preparing the quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiment is similar to that disclosed in Embodiment 1, except that the used organic solution was prepared by mixing 0.1 ml of n-hexanoic acid, 0.1 ml of n-octylamine, 100 mg of PbBr.sub.2 and 20 ml of water.

[0048] The quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiment is similar to that prepared in Embodiment 1, except that the protection layer 13 covers plural cores 11 coated with the quantum dot layers 12, as shown in FIG. 2.

[0049] As mentioned above, the perovskite quantum dot light emitting materials of Embodiments 1 and 2 can be prepared by using a perovskite quantum dot precursor as a raw material and combining an inorganic oxide material (fumed silica in the present embodiments) and a dispersant, and the perovskite quantum dots can be directly deposited on the surface of the inorganic oxide. Thus, the quantum dot light emitting material of the present embodiments can be synthesized in one step. However, in the conventional methods of synthesizing quantum dots, no matter the conventional CdSe core-shell quantum dots or perovskite quantum dots, they all need to be prepared through complicated heat injection and reaction procedures. In addition, the concentration of the reactants, and the time and temperature of reaction have to be precisely controlled to control the particle size of quantum dots; and if there is a slight difference, the luminescent wavelength will change, making the yield difficult to control.

[0050] In addition, the light emitting structure of the previously synthesized CdSe core-shell quantum dots or perovskite quantum dots has to be stabilized by the ligands absorbed on the surface of the quantum dots. However, once exposed to light or thermal reaction, the ligands on the surface of the quantum dots are easy to fall off, resulting in a light quenching effect, which causes a significant decrease in luminous efficiency. In the perovskite quantum dot light emitting materials of Embodiments 1 and 2, the perovskite quantum dots are not formed on the inorganic oxide material through ligands, but the perovskite quantum dots are directly formed on the inorganic oxide material. In addition, in Embodiments 1 and 2, the perovskite quantum dots itself can react with PbBr(OH) to form the protection layer, so it is possible to obtain the quantum dot materials with the functions of waterproof, light-resistant, and heat-resistant in a simple and fast way.

Embodiment 3

[0051] FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a light emitting diode device according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the light emitting diode device of the present embodiment comprises: a light emitting diode chip 21, wherein two electrodes 22 are respectively disposed on a surface of the light emitting diode chip 21; and a light emitting layer 23 disposed on the surfaces of the light emitting diode chip 21 without the electrodes 22 disposed thereon. Herein, the light emitting layer 23 can be prepared by mixing silicone and the quantum dot light emitting material 1 prepared in Embodiment 1, followed by applying on the surfaces of the light emitting diode chip 21.

[0052] In other embodiments of the present invention, the quantum dot light emitting material 1 prepared in Embodiment 1 may be directly formed on the surfaces of the light emitting diode chip 21 without using silicone.

[0053] FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a diffusion plate according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] As shown in FIG. 4, the diffusion plate of the present embodiment comprises: a substrate 32; the quantum dot light emitting material 1 of Embodiment 1 dispersed in the substrate 32; and diffusion particles 31 dispersed in the substrate 32.

[0055] In the present invention, by providing a quantum dot light emitting material with a novel structure, the luminous efficiency of the quantum dots can be effectively improved, especially the luminous efficiency of the perovskite quantum dots can be improved, so that the application field of the perovskite quantum dots can be extended.

[0056] In the present invention, as long as the features of the various embodiments do not violate the spirit of the invention or conflict, they can be mixed and matched arbitrarily.

[0057] Although the present invention has been explained in relation to its embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as hereinafter claimed.

[0058] In addition, the above-mentioned embodiments are only examples for convenience of description, and the scope claimed by the present invention shall be subject to the claims of the patent application, rather than limited to the above-mentioned embodiments.
