Since the emergence of perovskite photovoltaics in 2009 the scientific community has witnessed steep progress of the technology in terms of solar to electric power conversion efficiency 25.5% accompanied by advancement in addressing stability issues and developing a deeper understanding of fundamental structure-processing-property relationships.
The technology transfer from lab to fab has proven challenging, however merely a decade after discovery the commercialization of organic-inorganic metal halide perovskites in terms of photovoltaic devices is just around the corner.
Many issues had to be tackled to meet industrialization, among them large area deposition techniques, safety standards and material wastage without compromising efficiency and stability. Thus, a cost-effective, reliable fabrication process capable of delivering highly efficient and durable large-area perovskite modules is vital for success of the technology. Saule Technologies has been developing a fully scalable inkjet printing process of perovskite solar cell modules on lightweight flexible substrates. This talk will focus on recent advancements in the technology and the product development process required to bring inkjet printed perovskite modules closer to commercial utility. Our perovskite solar cell solutions offer high power density at low light intensity conditions and at the same time exhibit long lifetime to guarantee autonomous operation for IoT devices far beyond typical battery lifetime. It has been a long but exciting way from the first laboratory samples to the first commercial perovskite solar cell production line. The first applications of hybrid perovskite solar cells will include powering IoT devices and many more will follow soon.

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.
