Bulk-heterojunction organic photovoltaic cells based on π-conjugated polymers have been intensively investigated in the last few decades. A key to improving the power conversion efficiency is to control the polymer order and morphology as well as the molecular orbital energy levels and the absorption range. Therefore, it is imperative to carefully design the π-conjugated polymers to manage their electronic structures, backbone coplanarity and intermolecular interactions. We have been studying a number of π-conjugated polymers by incorporating various fused heteroaromatic rings into the polymer backbone. In this presentation, I will show the design and synthesis of novel π-conjugated polymers based on newly developed heteroaromatics based on thiazole and thiadiazole moieties. In fact, the power conversion efficiencies of ~12% in the cells based on a fullerene acceptor and ~18% in the cells based on a nonfullerene acceptor was achieved using the newly developed polymers. More importantly, significantly efficient charge generation was realized with small voltage loss. I will discuss how the molecular structure affects the polymer properties and polymer order in the thin film and thereby photovoltaic performances.
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.
