In the recent years, the development of new non-fullerene-based organic acceptor (NFA) materials have strongly contributed to increasing the efficiency of organic photovoltaics (OPV), going from an average efficiency of about 12% to over 18%. More often than not, these excellent and fundamental developments, in terms of efficiency, are not compatible with potential production applications as well as still having severe limitations in lifetime and stability in a practical context.
It is therefore essential to improve the intrinsic characteristics of the devices, such as organic semiconductor, adapting formulations or manipulation of the interlayers for a fully compatibility with a productive process like slot-die by roll-to-roll (R2R). In the other side it is equally fundamental to have a clear vision of their behavior with the extrinsic stability of the panels themselves, such as both physical and chemistry compatibility with adhesives and barrier properties maintaining reasonable compromise between costs, final application, and context.
In this talk we will analyze some fundamental points required by a real scale-up, practical problems in their applications and give an analysis on the motivation of why these materials still take time to be used commercially.
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.
