Proceedings of International Conference Asia-Pacific Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (AP-HOPV17)
Publication date: 7th November 2016
Lead halide based organic-inorganic perovskite semiconductors (CH3NH3PbX3, X = Br, I, Cl) have gained great attention as potential light harvesting material in thin-film photovoltaics due to its promising light-absorption characteristics, charge-transport dynamics and simple solution processibility. Recently, using lead based perovskite, worldwide research efforts have led to an incredible enhancement in power conversion efficiencies up to 22.1%. However, these mentioned devices suffer from the relatively poor stability in air and moisture, and more importantly the toxicity of lead is an obstacle for further commercialization. Lead-free perovskite materials such as Sn or Ge based solar cells have been shown to exhibit moderate performances. However, Sn and Ge based devices suffer from serious problems such as toxicity when exposed to environment and in particular stability against moisture.This presentation will discuss the possibility to replace lead by a non-toxic bismuth based light absorbing perovskite material, its physiochemical, optoelectronic properties and suitability for the futuristic solar cells in planar/meso heterojunction architecture. Furthermore, the present talk will also focus on the effect of tuning the morphology of MIB perovskite, by bringing in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) as a morphology controller under different operating conditions, on device parameters and thereby its effect on device performance.
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.
