Abstract

Provided are core-shell particles that have high luminous efficiency and are useful as quantum dots, a method for producing the same, and a film produced using the core-shell particles. The core-shell particles of the invention are core-shell particles having a core containing a Group III element and a Group V element; and a shell covering at least a portion of the surface of the core and containing a Group II element and a Group VI element, in which the proportion of the peak intensity ratio of the Group II element with respect to the peak intensity ratio of the Group III element as measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis is 0.25 or higher.

First claim

What is claimed is:

2 . The core-shell particles according to claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the peak intensity ratio of the Group VI element with respect to the peak intensity ratio of the Group III element as measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis is 0.80 or higher.

3 . The core-shell particles according to claim 1 , wherein the Group III element is In, and the Group V element is any one of P, N, and As.

4 . The core-shell particles according to claim 3 , wherein the Group III element is In, and the Group V element is P.

5 . The core-shell particles according to claim 1 , wherein the Group II element is Zn, and the Group VI element is S or Se.

6 . The core-shell particles according to claim 5 , wherein the Group II element is Zn, and the Group VI element is S.

7 . The core-shell particles according to claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the peak intensity ratio of the Group II element with respect to the peak intensity ratio of the Group III element as measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis is 0.35 or higher.

8 . A method for producing core-shell particles, the method being used for synthesizing the core-shell particles according to claim 1 ,
the method comprising: a first step of preparing a mixed solution by mixing a Group III raw material including a Group III element with a Group II raw material including a Group II element, and dissolving the raw materials; a second step of adding a Group V raw material including, a Group V element to the mixed solution, and forming a core containing the Group III element and the Group V element; and a third step of adding a Group VI raw material including a Group VI element to the mixed solution after forming of the core, and forming a shell containing the Group II element and the Group VI element on at least a portion of the surface of the core, wherein the third step is carried out at a temperature of 230° C. or higher.

9 . The method for producing core-shell particles according to claim 8 , wherein the second step is carried out at a temperature of lower than 230° C.

10 . The method for producing core-shell particles according to claim 9 , wherein the second step is carried out at a temperature of from 120° C. to 200° C.

11 . The method for producing core-shell particles according to claim 8 , wherein the third step is carried out at a temperature of 240° C. or higher.

12 . The method for producing core-shell particles according to claim 8 , wherein the Group III element is In, and the Group V element is any one of P, N, and As.

13 . The method for producing core-shell particles according to claim 12 , wherein the Group III element is In, and the Group V element is P.
