Definitions
- This invention relates to a temperature-sensing composition.
- specialty compositions which can contain luminescent probes that are sensitive to environmental parameters such as, for example, temperature and pressure, have a variety of analytical applications.
- specialty compositions can form coatings used to remotely determine the surface temperature of an object in a non-invasive manner.
- Objects can be coated with films containing the sensing compositions which emit light of varying intensities, depending on temperature and oxygen pressure.
- temperature-sensing compositions can be used in combination with compositions for measuring the pressure of an oxygen-containing gas on an aerodynamic surface by oxygen-quenching of luminescent pressure sensing compositions. These compositions can be used to provide convenient and inexpensive methods for determining pressure or temperature maps at surfaces.
- An example of a pressure-sensing composition includes a phosphorescent porphyrin which has an emission that is quenched by oxygen.
- This quenching can be used to quantitatively measure the static pressure on the surface of the object.
- the emission of the pressure-sensing composition can have temperature dependence in addition to pressure dependence. Accordingly, pressure measurements containing a temperature-sensing composition can be corrected by sensing fluctuations in the temperature in addition to pressure.
- Temperature-sensing compositions can include an inorganic material, such as a semiconductor nanocrystal.
- the nanocrystal can be a dependable and accurate indicator of temperature.
- the intensity of emission of the nanocrystal varies with temperature and can be highly sensitive to surface temperature.
- the nanocrystals can be processed with a binder to form a matrix, which can be varied by altering the chemical nature of the surface of the nanocrystal.
- a nanocrystal with a compatibilizing outer layer can be incorporated into a coating formulation and retain its temperature sensitive emissive properties.
- a method of sensing temperature includes providing a temperature sensor including a matrix on a surface of a substrate, the matrix comprising a semiconductor nanocrystal in a binder, irradiating a portion of the sensor with an excitation wavelength of light, detecting emission of light from the sensor, and determining the temperature from the emission of light from the sensor.
- a temperature sensor includes a matrix containing a semiconductor nanocrystal. The matrix can be formed from a semiconductor nanocrystal and a binder.
- a temperature-sensing coating includes a matrix on a surface of a substrate.
- the matrix can include a semiconductor nanocrystal in a binder.

- the semiconductor nanocrystal can include a group II- VI semiconductor, a group III-V semiconductor, or group IV semiconductor, for example, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, CdS, CdSe, CdTe, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, A1N, A1P, AlAs, AlSb, GaN, GaP, GaAs, GaSb, InN, InP, InAs, InSb, TIN, TIP, TIAs, TlSb, PbS, PbSe, PbTe, or mixtures thereof.
- the semiconductor nanocrystal can be overcoated with a second semiconductor material.
- the semiconductor nanocrystal can include an organic or organometallic overlayer, the overlayer making the nanocrystal dispersible in the binder.
- the overlayer can include a . hydrolyzable moiety, such as a metal alkoxide.
- the nanocrystal can be a member of a substantially monodisperse core population, such as a population exhibiting less than a 15% rms deviation in diameter of the nanocrystal, which can emit light in a spectral range of no greater than about 75 nm full width at half max (FWFLM).
- the nanocrystal can photo luminesce with a quantum efficiency of at least 10% and can have a particle size in the range of about 15 A to about 125 A.
- the binder can include an organic polymer or inorganic matrix.
- Figure 1 is a graph depicting emission spectra of ZnS-capped CdSe nanocrystals in a poly(lauryl methacrylate) matrix irradiated at 480 nm at various temperatures.
- Figure 2 is a graph depicting integrated emission intensity of the ZnS-capped CdSe nanocrystals dispersed in a matrix over a range of temperatures.
- a temperature-sensing composition can include a semiconductor nanocrystal.
- Nanocrystals composed of semiconductor material can be illuminated with a light source at an absorption wavelength to cause an emission at an emission wavelength, the emission having a frequency that corresponds to the band gap of the quantum confined semiconductor material.
- the band gap is a function of the size of the nanocrystal.
- Nanocrystals having small diameters can have properties intermediate between molecular and bulk forms of matter. For example, nanocrystals based on semiconductor materials having small diameters can exhibit quantum confinement of both the electron and hole in all three dimensions, which leads to an increase in the effective band gap of the material with decreasing crystallite size. Consequently, both the optical absorption and emission of nanocrystals shift to the blue (i.e., to higher energies) as the size of the crystallites decreases.
- the emission from the nanocrystal can be a narrow Gaussian emission band that can be tuned through the complete wavelength range of the ultraviolet, visible, or infrared regions of the spectrum by varying the size of the nanocrystal, the composition of the nanocrystal, or both.
- CdSe can be tuned in the visible region
- InAs can be tuned in the infrared region.
- the narrow size distribution of a population of nanocrystals can result in emission of light in a narrow spectral range.
- the population can exhibit less than a 15% rms deviation in diameter of the nanocrystals, preferably less than 10%, more preferably less than 5%.
- FWHM full width at half max
- Semiconductor nanocrystals can have high emission quantum efficiencies such as greater than 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, or 80%.
- the narrow emission band of the nanocrystal can improve the performance and reliability of the temperature-sensing composition relative to compositions that include conventional molecular probes that have broad, fixed wavelength emission bands.
- the excitation profile of the nanocrystal can be broad and intense, which can allow efficient excitation of the nanocrystals across a range of wavelengths in the visible spectrum.
- the nanocrystal can be chemically stable when illuminated.
- the nanocrystal can be relatively unreactive with other materials, which can permit it to be used as a temperature probe in a wide variety of environments.
- the emission of the nanocrystal can be independent of gas pressure, such as oxygen pressure, or resistant to degradation in the presence of oxygen.
- Conventional organic temperature probes can degrade rapidly when illuminated, decreasing the useful lifespan of the coatings that contain them.
- temperature-sensing compositions that contain nanocrystals on the well-defined temperature dependent emission properties of the nanocrystal can be used as the active component in temperature sensitive paints or as an internal temperature calibrant for two-component pressure sensitive paints.
- Methods of preparing monodisperse semiconductor nanocrystals include pyrolysis of organometallic reagents, such as dimethyl cadmium, injected into a hot, coordinating solvent. This permits discrete nucleation and results in the controlled growth of macroscopic quantities of nanocrystals. Preparation and manipulation of nanocrystals are described, for example, in U.S. Appln. No. 08/969,302, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- the method of manufacturing a nanocrystal is a colloidal growth process. Colloidal growth occurs by rapidly injecting an M donor and an X donor into a hot coordinating solvent. The injection produces a nucleus that can be grown in a controlled manner to form a nanocrystal.
- the reaction mixture can be gently heated to grow and anneal the nanocrystal. Both the average size and the size distribution of the nanocrystals in a sample are dependent on the growth temperature. The growth temperature necessary to maintain steady growth increases with increasing average crystal size.
- the nanocrystal is a member of a population of nanocrystals. As a result of the discrete nucleation and controlled growth, the population of nanocrystals obtained has a narrow, monodisperse distribution of diameters. The monodisperse distribution of diameters can also be referred to as a size.
- the process of controlled growth and annealing of the nanocrystals in the coordinating solvent that follows nucleation can also result in uniform surface derivatization and regular core structures.
- the M donor can be an inorganic compound, an organometallic compound, or elemental metal.
- M is cadmium, zinc, magnesium, mercury, aluminum, gallium, indium or thallium.
- the X donor is a compound capable of reacting with the M donor to form a material with the general formula MX.
- the X donor is a chalcogenide donor or a pnictide donor, such as a phosphine chalcogenide, a bis(silyl) chalcogenide, dioxygen, an ammonium salt, or a tris(silyl) pnictide.
- a chalcogenide donor or a pnictide donor such as a phosphine chalcogenide, a bis(silyl) chalcogenide, dioxygen, an ammonium salt, or a tris(silyl) pnictide.
- Suitable X donors include dioxygen, bis(trimethylsilyl) selenide ((TMS) 2 Se), trialkyl phosphine selenides such as (tri-n- octylphosphine) selenide (TOPSe) or (tri-n-butylphosphine) selenide (TBPSe), trialkyl phosphine tellurides such as (tri-n-octylphosphine) telluride (TOPTe) or hexapropylphosphorustriamide telluride (HPPTTe), bis(trimethylsilyl)telluride ((TMS) 2 Te), bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfide ((TMS) 2 S), a trialkyl phosphine sulfide such as (tri- n-octylphosphine) sulfide (TOPS), an ammonium salt such as an ammonium halide (e.g., NH 4 C1), tris
- the M donor and the X donor can be moieties within the same molecule.
- a coordinating solvent can help control the growth of the nanocrystal.
- the coordinating solvent is a compound having a donor lone pair that, for example, has a lone electron pair available to coordinate to a surface of the growing nanocrystal.
- Solvent coordination can stabilize the growing nanocrystal.
- Typical coordinating solvents include alkyl phosphines, alkyl phosphine oxides, alkyl phosphonic acids, or alkyl phosphinic acids, however, other coordinating solvents, such as pyridines, furans, and amines may also be suitable for the nanocrystal production.
- Suitable coordinating solvents include tri-n-octyl phosphine (TOP) and tri-n-octyl phosphine oxide (TOPO).
- TOPO tri-n-octyl phosphine
- TOPO tri-n-octyl phosphine oxide
- Size distribution during the growth stage of the reaction can be estimated by monitoring the absorption line widths of the particles. Modification of the reaction temperature in response to changes in the absorption spectrum of the particles allows the maintenance of a sharp particle size distribution during growth. Reactants can be added to the nucleation solution during crystal growth to grow larger crystals. By stopping growth at a particular nanocrystal average diameter and choosing the proper composition of the semiconducting material, the emission spectra of the nanocrystals can be tuned continuously over the wavelength range of 400 nm to 800 nm.
- the nanocrystal has a diameter of less than 150 A.
- a population of nanocrystals has average diameters in the range of 15 A to 125 A.
- the nanocrystal can be a member of a population of nanocrystals having a narrow size distribution.
- the nanocrystal can be a sphere, rod, disk, or other shape.
- the nanocrystal can include a core of a semiconductor material.
- the nanocrystal can include a core having the formula MX, where M is cadmium, zinc, magnesium, mercury, aluminum, gallium, indium, thallium, or mixtures thereof, and X is oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, or mixtures thereof.
- the core can have an overcoating on a surface of the core.
- the overcoating can be a semiconductor material having a composition different from the composition of the core.
- the overcoat of a semiconductor material on a surface of the nanocrystal can include a group II- VI, III-V or IV semiconductor, such as, for example, ZnO, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, CdO, CdS, CdSe, CdTe, MgO, MgS, MgSe, MgTe, HgO, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, A1N, A1P, AlAs, AlSb, GaN, GaP, GaAs, GaSb, InN, InP, InAs, InSb, TIN, TIP, TIAs, TlSb, TlSb, PbS, PbSe, PbTe, or mixtures thereof.
- ZnS, ZnSe or CdS overcoatings can be grown on CdSe or CdTe nanocrystals.
- An overcoating process is described, for example, in U.S. Application No. 08/969,302, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- the particle size distribution can be further refined by size selective precipitation with a poor solvent for the nanocrystals, such as methanol/butanol as described in U.S. Application No. 08/969,302, incorporated herein by reference.
- a poor solvent for the nanocrystals such as methanol/butanol as described in U.S. Application No. 08/969,302, incorporated herein by reference.
- nanocrystals can be dispersed in a solution of 10% butanol in hexane. Methanol can be added dropwise to this stirring solution until opalescence persists. Separation of supernatant and flocculate by centrifugation produces a precipitate enriched with the largest crystallites in the sample. This procedure can be repeated until no further sharpening of the optical absorption spectrum is noted.
- Size-selective precipitation can be carried out in a variety of solvent/nonsolvent pairs, including pyridine/hexane and chloroform/methanol.
- the size-selected nanocrystal population can have no more than a 15% RMS deviation from mean diameter, preferably 10% RMS deviation or less, and more preferably 5% RMS deviation or less.
- TEM Transmission electron microscopy
- Powder x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns can provided the most complete information regarding the type and quality of the crystal structure of the nanocrystals.
- Estimates of size are also possible since particle diameter is inversely related, via the X-ray coherence length, to the peak width.
- the diameter of the nanocrystal can be measured directly by transmission electron microscopy or estimated from x-ray diffraction data using, for example, the Scherrer equation. It also can be estimated from the UV/Vis absorption spectrum.
- the outer surface of the nanocrystal can include layer of compounds derived from the coordinating solvent used during the growth process.
- the surface can be modified by repeated exposure to an excess of a competing coordinating group to form an overlayer.
- a dispersion of the capped nanocrystal can be treated with a coordinating organic compound, such as pyridine, to produce crystallites which disperse readily in pyridine, methanol, and aromatics but no longer disperse in aliphatic solvents.
- a surface exchange process can be carried out with any compound capable of coordinating to or bonding with the outer surface of the nanocrystal, including, for example, phosphines, thiols, amines and phosphates.
- the nanocrystal can be exposed to short chain polymers which exhibit an affinity for the surface and which terminate in a moiety having an affinity for a suspension or dispersion medium. Such affinity improves the stability of the suspension and discourages flocculation of the nanocrystal.
- the compound forming the overlayer can have a reactive group that can react with another compound to bond the nanocrystal to the binder.
- the binder can form a matrix.
- the matrix can be an organic polymer matrix, such as a polyacrylate matrix, or an inorganic matrix, such as a sol-gel-derived matrix.
- the reactive group can be a polymerizable moiety, such as an acrylate moiety, a stryryl moiety, or a hydrolyzable moiety, for example, silicon alkoxide, titanium alkoxide, zirconium alkoxide, or other metal alkoxide, metal amide, metal carboxylate, or metal halide groups.
- the reactive groups can react with each other, or with reactive groups of other compounds or monomers, to form a solid matrix containing the nanocrystals.
- the nanocrystal can be incorporated into a solid matrix formed in part by reaction of the reactive groups.
- the reactive group can be a functionality, such as an amino or hydroxyl group, that can react with a multifunctional component, such as a dicarboxylic acid, or reactive derivative thereof, or a diisocyanate, to form a solid matrix containing the nanocrystals.
- the temperature-sensing composition can be applied to a substrate as a paint.
- the paint can include a binder and a deposition solvent.
- the binder can produce a film on a surface of an object upon evaporation of solvent.
- the binder can include an organic or inorganic polymer or prepolymer, for example, a polymer or prepolymer typically used in a paint composition.
- the binder can form a film by chemical reaction with atmospheric moisture, a heat or light induced reaction, a chemical interaction with other components within the paint, such as the nanocrystal overlayer, or combinations thereof.
- the binder can include a silicone polymer, for example, a thermoplastic silicone copolymer or dimethyl polysiloxane, a silicone co-polymers such as silicone-polyurethane or silicone- polyester co-polymers, an acrylate or urethane polymer or prepolymer, or a hydrolyzable composition including a silicon alkoxide, a titanium alkoxide, a zirconium alkoxide, an aluminum alkoxide, or other metal alkoxide that can form an inorganic matrix.
- the deposition solvent is a solvent that dissolves the nanocrystal and binder and can be sufficiently volatile to produce a smooth film.
- the deposition solvent can include 1,1,1- trichloroethane, dichloromethane, ethyl alcohol, butyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, cyclohexane, or mixtures thereof.
- the paint can be applied to a substrate to form a film.
- a white substrate can improve the performance of the sensor by reflecting the emitted light more completely.
- the film can be thin, for example, 1-100, 2-50, 3-20, or 5-10 microns in thickness. Film thickness can be determined using an ultraviolet/visible spectrometer by measuring the optical absorption of the nanocrystal and applying Beer's law.
- the nanocrystal can be uniformly distributed in the film.
- the coated surface can be irradiated with the excitation wavelength. While the coated object is irradiated, the emission wavelength can be monitored, for example, with a photomultiplier tube. The intensity of the emission can be compared with predetermined calibration values to produce measurements of the temperature on the surface.
- the temperature-sensing composition can be used in the preparation of pressure sensitive paints, such as those described in Gouterman et al., U.S. Patent No. 5,186,046, incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the pressure sensitive paint includes a pressure- sensing composition that produces an emission that is dependent on pressure. Any temperature dependence can be corrected by including the temperature-sensing composition in the pressure sensitive paint.
- a pressure-sensing composition can include a porphyrin, such as a platinum porphyrin, in particular, platinum octaethylporphyrin.
- the individual molecules should be separated by at least about 5 ⁇ A to prevent triplet-triplet deactivation.
- This intermolecular separation corresponds to a porphyrin concentration of about 10 "2 molar.
- the excitation spectrum for platinum octaethylporphyrin displays a strong excitation band in the near ultraviolet region of the visible spectrum at approximately 380 nm and a weaker band in the green region at approximately 540 nm and an emission in the red region of the visible spectrum at approximately 650 nm.
- Platinum octaethylporphyrin has an emission quantum yield of approximately 90%.
- either the excitation wavelength or the emission wavelength of the pressure-sensing composition and the temperature-sensing composition are different.
- the emission wavelength maxima can be separated by 10 nm or more, or 20 nm or more, so that the data for each composition can be measured separately.
- One advantage of a temperature-sensing composition including a nanocrystal is that the emission wavelength of the nanocrystal can be selected so that the emission does not interfere with the emission from the pressure-sensing composition.
- the excitation wavelength can be selected so that the nanocrystal and the pressure-sensing composition are excited at the same wavelength.
- the intensities can be measured by rotating different interference filters in front of a detection device, such as a video camera, or a photomultiplier tube, during irradiation with the excitation wavelength.
- a detection device such as a video camera, or a photomultiplier tube
- a diode array detector can be used to monitor emissions.
- CdSe cadmium selenide
- the CdSe nanocrystals were overcoated with zinc sulfide (ZnS).
- Semiconductor nanocrystals with average diameters in the range 4 to 5 nm were size selected by precipitation, reducing the distribution of sizes about the average diameter.
- the size-selected nanocrystals provide indicators with an emission maximum at 600 nm at ambient temperature.
- the absorption profile of the size-selected ZnS-capped CdSe nanocrystals was intense, having an onset of absorbance that began at approximately 600 nm and extended into the ultraviolet spectral region.
- the nanocrystals are well-suited for use as luminescent temperature probes.
- ZnS- capped CdSe nanocrystals dispersed in a poly(lauryl methacrylate) polymer matrix provided a material for optical measurements.
- a polymer rod containing nanocrystals was prepared by redispersing synthesized nanocrystals into laurylmethacrylate monomer containing TOP (5 % v/v). Then, ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate crosslinker was added to the nanocrystal-monomer solution with 1 :4 volume ratio of cross-linker to monomer.
- a thin disk of the polymer-supported nanocrystals was cut from the rod with a single edge razor blade.
- the disk had a diameter of 5 mm and a thickness of approximately 1 mm.
- the disk was mounted flat on a surface of a temperature-controlled stage using thermal grease (CRY-CON thermal conductive grease available from Lake Shore Cryotonics).
- the stage was a flat surface temperature controlled with a water bath. Temperatures were maintained within ⁇ 0.5 per degree Centigrade.
- the disk was irradiated with monochromatic blue-green light having a wavelength of 480 nm. The emission intensity of the nanocrystals in the disk was measured at various temperatures.
- the temperature dependent emission spectrum of the polymer-supported nanocrystals was measured using a steady-state emission spectrophotometer.
- the flat disk of nanocrystals mounted on a thermostatically controlled black flat plate was orientated at a 45° angle to an incident monochromatic excitation beam.
- Monochromatic excitation was achieved using a 200 W Hg-Xe arc lamp equipped with a Spex Model 1680B monochromator and a chopper.
- the emitted light intensity was measured normal to the incident excitation beam using a dry-ice cooled photomultiplier tube (Hamamatsu Type R943-02) after dispersal with a Spex Model 1870B monochromator.
- the background spectrum was subtracted using a Stanford Scientific Instruments photon counter. Specifically, the temperature of the stage was varied from 25 to 40, 40 to 25, 25 to 15, 15 to 5, and 5 to 25 degrees centigrade.
- Figure 1 depicts the emission intensity of the disk at each temperature.
- the decrease in emission intensity with temperature is linear. As depicted in Figure 2, the change in emission intensity was 1.3% per degree centigrade. The temperature dependence of the emission intensity is not dependent on the characteristics of the sample to any great degree. The slope of the temperature dependent emission intensity does not vary greatly from sample to sample. Generally, the slope varies from 1.1 to 1.6% per degree centigrade. The emission intensity also can be independent of excitation wavelength in the visible spectrum and is not dependent on the initial quantum yield of the sample or the supporting matrix. Furthermore, the change in emission intensity with temperature is fully reversible as indicated by the superposition of spectra obtained at 25 degrees centigrade at the beginning, middle, and end of the experiment after heating and cooling the disk.
- the nanocrystals can be dispersed in a sol-gel matrix.
- 40-50 mg of CdSe nanocrystal, either overcoated with ZnS or bare, which were washed repeatedly to remove any excess TOPO cap, are pumped dry under a vacuum and transferred into an inert atmosphere glove box.
- the nanocrystals were then redissolved in a solvent mixture consisting of 150 mg of tetrahydrofuran, 600 mg ethyl alcohol and 60 mg of tris-hydroxylpropyl phosphine.
- a dispersion of nanocrystals in a binder of Dow C734, a silicone polymer was prepared.
- the CdSe nanocrystals were dissolved in dichloromethane at a concentration of at least 1 mM to form a nanocrystal solution.
- a 5:1 or 10:1 ratio of the nanocrystal solution to binder was combined and thoroughly mixed until uniform.
- the binder-nanocrystal solution was deposited on a glass slide or a quartz slide to form a film.
- concentrations of nanocrystal in binder were prepared such that color of the films ranged from white (low concentration of nanocrystals, ⁇ 0.1 mM) to pale in color as determined by naked eye in room light.
- the films were excited using with monochromatic blue-green light having a wavelength of 480 nm.
- the lower concentration films produced emission that were very difficult to detect by eye, but could be easily seen with a photomultiplier tube detector. Emission from the more concentrated films was visible by eye. The emission from the higher concentration films could also be observed by eye using a hand held Hg lamp for excitation.
- the maximum wavelength of emission and band width of the emission are similar for nanocrystals in binder and nanocrystals in solution.
