Lattice compression of the halide perovskites due to mild mechanical pressure results in decreased bandgap, enhanced photoluminescence (PL), longer carrier lifetime, and reduced trap-states.[1] However, these effects are lost upon decompression. Therefore, developing irreversible lattice compression is needed in order to preserve the enhanced optoelectronic properties. Here, we grow high-quality methylammonium lead bromide (MAPbBr3) single crystals by developing an antisolvent-assisted solvent acidolysis crystallization technique. The crystals show intense emission at all four edges under UV lamp. Using micro-X-ray diffraction, we examine the structural differences at the edges and central regions; concluding that the enhanced edges emission is due to lattice compression.The structural changes between the edges and the central areas are also confirmed by macro- and micro-PL, and Raman spectroscopy studies. As a consequence of the lattice compression, shallower trap states and/or reduced trap state densities at the edges are expected. In fact, time-resolved PL measurements show 20 times longer photogenerated carriers lifetimes at the edges compared to the central areas. Furthermore, light detectivity is five times enhanced at the compressed edges with respect to the unstrained central regions. Our findings indicate that developments toward realizing the theoretical limit of radiative recombination in the perovskite-based optoelectronic devices could be achieved through a controlled crystallization process where both structural defects and non-radiative pathways can be reduced.
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.
