Metal halide perovskites are at the forefront of next-generation optoelectronics due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties and ease of processing. However, challenges in scalability, stability, and process reproducibility remain critical barriers to their commercial adoption. In this work, we present the baseline we established for slot-die coated perovskite solar cells in the HySPRINT lab of HZB for small area test cells reaching up to 22% PCE collaboratively. We recently established a digital workflow collecting most relevant data regarding the fabrication of solar cells as well as their performance in the research data management platform NOMAD. We demonstrate how digital tools can greatly enhance intra-lab collaboration and will showcase how these kind of platforms can also be used for research data sharing by the wider research community.
We demonstrate the integration of in-situ process monitoring techniques, such as photoluminescence, during slot-die coating. These tools provide immediate feedback on critical parameters, including film thickness, drying kinetics, and phase evolution, enabling precise control over film quality and reproducibility. Data is complemented by in-situ process monitoring experiments using GIWAXS at the BESSY synchrotron.
Finally, we present an example of the fabrication of perovskite solar cell mini-modules using scalable methods, achieving efficiencies exceeding 20% with enhanced stability under operational conditions. The insights gained from these studies pave the way for the large-scale manufacturing of stable and efficient perovskite devices, addressing key technological challenges and supporting the field’s transition from laboratory to market.
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.
