Light and thermal stability are big concerns for perovskite solar cells (PSCs). To solve the problem of thermal stability MA free PSCs are one of the candidates. For light stability, still research is going on worldwide [1]. Different strategies have been incorporated such as surface passivation, and the inclusion of big organic cation at A position of ABX3 perovskite structure [2]. In this work, we focused on the improvement of light and thermal stability of tin-lead (Sn-Pb) by the introduction of germanium (Ge) into the crystal lattice by adding GeI2 into the perovskite precursor solution. It is well known that GeI2 can convert to GeO4, and can be located at the top of the absorber layer [3]. Different devices with solar cell architecture such as FTO/Hole transport layer/ Sn-Pb-Ge /Electron transport layer/ BCP/ Ag were fabricated. The control device showed a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.68% (Forward) and 19.10%(Reverse). The target devices with Gex, where x is the fraction of Ge added into the crystal lattice, exhibited an improved PCE of 20.52%(Forward) and 21.23% (Reverse) as shown in Figure 1. Herein, we further evaluated the thermal and light stability of devices. The experimental results will further be supported by XRD, XPS, SEM, and Impedance spectroscopy analysis.

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.
