Organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells have surged great waves in photovoltaic field owing to their peculiar advantages. At the state-of-the-art, the mesoporous-structured perovskite solar cells (MPSCs) hold the efficiency record, and have already exceeded 22%. In our work, the charge carrier recombination dynamics of MPSCs are investigated by transient photovoltage decay methods. A biphasic charge carrier recombination process is observed, i.e., at low quasi-Fermi level, photo-generated electrons predominately populate in perovskite phase, while at high quasi-Fermi level, most electrons occupy traps in mesoporous TiO2, and then the charge carrier recombination process is determined by the two different phases, respectively.[1] This phenomenon is observed according to the different trap-states distributions of the perovskite and meso-TiO2 phases in MPSCs. Further investigation suggests that the biphasic charge carrier recombination process is also influenced by the trap-states density, especially the density of perovskite phases, under the assistance of temperature-dependent fluorescence.[2] Considering that MPSCs are initially originated from DSSCs, and the structures of the two devices are highly similar with each other. The charge carrier recombination processes of the conventional DSSCs and MPSCs are compared, a novel physical model based on multiple-trapping theory is proposed by taking into account both the contributions of perovskite phase and mesoporous TiO2 phase, which is suitable to describe the biphasic charge carrier recombination process in MPSCs.[3] These findings provide an innovative horizon for the understanding of the charge carrier recombination process in perovskite solar cells.

nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
