Perovskite quantum dots (QDs) as a new type of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) have gained significant attention for both fundamental research and applications of optoelectronic devices owing to their appealing optoelectronic properties and excellent chemical processability. For their wide range of potential applications, synthesizing colloidal QDs with high crystal quality and stability is of crucial importance. However, like most common QD systems, those reported perovskite QDs still suffer from a certain density of trapping defects, giving rise to detrimental non-radiative recombination centers and thus quenching luminescence. Very recently, we have suceeded in synthesis of phase stable and less defect preovksite QDs, including APbX3 NCs (A: FA, MA, Cs; X: I, Br, Cl) and Sn-Pb alloyed NCs [1-5]. We have demonstrated that a high room-temperature photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) of close to 100% can be obtained in the APbX3 perovskite QDs, signifying the achievement of ignorable less trapping defects in the APbX3 QDs. Ultrafast kinetic analysis with time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy evidences the negligible electron or hole trapping pathways in our QDs, which explains such a high quantum efficiency. In addtion, photoexcited hot and cold carrier dynamics as well as charge transfer at the heterojunction of QD/metal oxide were systematically investigated [4]. Solar cells based on these high-quality perovskite QDs exhibit power conversion efficiency of over 12%, showing great promise for practical application. On the other hand, through incorporation of alkali ion Na+, we have realized for the first time efficient near-infrared emission from highly defective Sn-Pb perovskite QDs with substantially improved PL QY from ~0.3% to 28% [5]. Our findings provide new insights into the materials design strategies for improved optoelectronic properties of Sn-containing perovskites. We anticipate their use in near-infrared devices is very promising if issues of the sustainability of PL QY can be fully addressed in the near future.

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.
