Much research related to perovskite solar cells follows a familiar pattern. A group of postdocs and PhD students enter the lab where they with skill and determination meticulous handcraft a staggering number of solar cells, where after they carefully measure the device characteristics of the cells. This process triggers the writing of papers in which insights are summarised, and where a subset of the generated data is used for plotting figures and filling tables. Over the last ten years, this has been repeated about 10000 times. Sadly, much of the data presented in figures are non-trivial to extract, and much of the raw data newer leaves the hard drives of the students doing the work, and when they move on, the data is many times forever lost in the growing heap of unconsidered data. We firmly believe that much could be gained if more of this data could be stored in one place where it is easily accessible for the research community. So is also an increasing number of funding agencies. Such a collection of data could lead to new insights that are hard to get when the data is scattered over thousands of articles, and it could thus be a way to accelerate the pace of development. In this project, we are working on creating a platform for what could be described as a Wikipedia of perovskite device data. We will in this presentation describe what we have created, what can be conclude from the data so far accumulated, as well as the potential benefits for the perovskite community and beyond if this approach to data sharing reach full penetration in the field.
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.
