ePoster:

The carbon based perovskite solar cells (C-PSC) device structure among several other device designs of a perovskite solar cell gives great motivation to dream about scalable, decentralized and affordable solar-to-electrical energy conversion and production ^1-6. In this poster presentation, we highlight our research and development activities being performed to produce and scale up this promising photovoltaic technology via utilizing all the scalable methods such as screen printing and inkjet printing technology. Our results provides evidence that scaling up this promising device design is possible in clean room free environment and can be produced with impressive solar to electrical conversion efficiencies

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.
