Transition metal di-chalcogenides soon after their discovery are acting as a basis to study various fundamental and novel physical properties from nanoscale to bulk limits. Here, we studied the photogeneration of free charge carriers and neutral excitons in two-dimensional transition metal di-chalcogenides, such as MoS2 and ReS2. The studies were performed using ultafast pump-probe spectroscopy with optical or terahertz conductivity detection.The samples were photoexcited by ultrashort pulses of varying incident photon energy and fluence. The presence of photogenerated free charge carriers and excitons in these samples were observed on timescales of femtoseconds up to nanoseconds. The formation, relaxation and recombination dynamics of photogenerated free charge carriers and excitons were studied as a function of incident photon energy and we also monitor their quantum yield. The effects of pump fluence provide information about decay of charges and excitons via trapping due to defects and (Auger) recombination. The terahertz conductivity measurements yield the mobility of charge carriers and the polarizability of excitons.
This research received funding from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO).
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.
