Proceedings of International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV16)
Publication date: 28th March 2016
Hybrid organic/inorganic perovskite materials (e.g., CH3NH3PbI3) as light absorbers are currently among the most promising candidates for thin-film photovoltaic (PV) applications. Great advances in terms of efficiency have been achieved with this type of devices, however there are still many doubts about their properties and the relationship of these with the efficiency of the devices.
In this work, thin films of MAPbI3, MAPbI2Br and MAPbI2Cl were evaluated through photoconductivity measurements, which allowed to determine the activation energy corresponding to the levels associated to the trap centers present in the samples studied. Through fitting of decay curves of photocurrent simulated theoretically to the one obtained experimentally it was possible to determine the values of the time constants (ti) corresponding to each kind of trap centers. The activation energy associated to these traps was estimated from an Arhenius type fitting of the ti values obtained at different temperatures in the range between room temperature and 100ºC. It was found evidence of the presence of three types of traps in the studied perovskite films (MAPbI2Cl, MAPbI2Br and MAPbI3), which differ both in depth and in the values of the corresponding time constants
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.
