Proceedings of 6th International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV14)
Publication date: 1st March 2014
Solid-state hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite sensitized mesostructured solar cells have recently demonstrated remarkable power conversion efficiencies of 16 % at the lab scale. Despite the rapid progress in boosting up the devices' efficiencies, there is a lack of knowledge regarding some fundamental physical and chemical properties of this lately re-discovered material. The general observation is that minor alteration in the applied processing parameters may lead to dramatically different device performances. This recommends that it is critical to have fine control over the nucleation and crystal growth of the MAPbI3.
Here, we report the synthesis of lead-methylamine iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) nanoparticles by a low- temperature solution-processed crystallization method. We present structural and photo-physical characterization of thin films with altered crystallite size -and orientation. Our results provide a basis for the realization of new solution-mediated strategies with the ultimate goal of exerting control over particulate characteristics. Crystal engineering of trihalide perovskites (trough particle size and shape) will enable to explore exiting opportunities in photonics industry such as solar energy conversion, photodetectors and on-chip coherent light sources.
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.
