Perovskite solar technology has rapidly transitioned into a commercially viable solution after just over a decade of intensive global research. Distinguished by its high specific power, cost-effective production, and exceptional performance under low-light conditions, it stands out among photovoltaic technologies for its broad applicability. Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites uniquely combine the ease of solution processing typical of organic small molecules and polymeric semiconductors with the superior physical properties of high-performance crystalline inorganic semiconductors. This synergy results in a novel material class that harnesses the advantages of both organic and inorganic domains.
To enable the large-scale production of perovskite photovoltaics, the adoption of sustainable, safe, and industry-compatible processing methods is essential. Achieving sustainability begins not only with processing techniques but also at the material level. Solaveni, a Germany-based company, has pioneered the sustainable synthesis of perovskite precursors through innovative green halide chemistry. This presentation highlights the benefits of these novel synthesis routes for organic alkylammonium halides and metal halides, evaluated through life cycle assessment (LCA) and benchmarked against conventional production methods. The LCA examines the environmental impacts of these precursor materials—assessing resource consumption, energy use, and emissions—to provide critical insights into their sustainability profiles and ecological footprints. Furthermore, we introduce novel green recycling approaches for perovskite materials that enable rapid dissolution and recovery, fostering the development of a circular economy.
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.
