Coupled organic-inorganic nanostructures (COINs) utilize organic semiconductors as crosslinking ligands to facilitate charge conduction between semiconductor nanocrystals. They offer the perspective to combine efficient carrier transport with a high degree of structural order [1], as it has been successfully demonstrated in field-effect transistors [2]. A well-known and working organic ligand is 1,2-Ethanedithiol (EDT), especially with PbSe nanocrystals [3].
Here we focus on the introduction of a mixture of two organic ligands. Using the dip-coating technique of fabricating COIN layers from PbS nanocrystals with a mixture of Zinc β-Tetraaminophthalocyanine (Zn4APc) and EDT as organic linker molecules, we study the carrier transport and device performance. We compare this mixture of linker molecules with single Zn4APc- and EDT-ligands in out-of-plane devices (single-carrier-devices and solar cells) and in in-plane devices (transistors). Optical measurements show the influence of the different ligands and the mixture of both. Further we compare different PbS-particle sizes for the application in out-of-plane devices. Additional the influence of different hole-injection-layers for the device performance will be studied.

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.
