A quasi two dimensional (2D) perovskite containing a little amount of hydrophobic alkylamine group as a part of A-site cation of a lead halide perovskite structure is promising because it will provide long term durability against humidity to the organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cell which has been known as a next new generation low-cost and high-performance electric power source. However, the photovoltaic properties of 2D perovskite itself has not been investigated well because of low possibility to obtain a good photon harvesting efficiency and power conversion efficiency (PCE) due to its narrow light absorption region although it was known that the 2D perovskite has a unique charge separation ability and charge transport characters due to layered structure constructed by self-organization. In this presentation, we investigated orientation controlling method for a 2D perovskite crystal ((BA)2PbI4) consisting of a lead iodide and a butylamine hydroiodide as a hydrophobic cation and examined its effect on photovoltaic properties of solar cells. It was found that the crystalline orientation of 2D perovskite can be successfully controlled by optimizing preparation conditions of spin-coating for 2D perovskite layer and the oriented nanostructure of scaffold layer which assists a crystalline growth of 2D perovskite. As the result, crystalline orientation-controlled (BA)2PbI4 solar cell prepared on TiO2 oriented nanowire arrays showed higher PCE than that of non-controlled 2D perovskite solar cell prepared on planer TiO2 film scaffold.
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.
