The aim of this study is to compare the photovoltaic performances of DSSC employed with different commercially available TiO2 pastes under various light intensities. Specifically, four commercial TiO2 pastes with diverse particle shapes including decahedral nanocrystals and tetragonal nanorods were used to fabricate the photoanode for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and tested under the simulated AM 1.5 illumination (100 mW/cm2) and artificial light (T5 fluorescent, 300-6000 Lux). DSSCs are suitable for using under outdoor and indoor conditions, because their wide spectral response. It was found that despite all devices exhibited comparable power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.5%–8.8% under AM 1.5 illumination, their performance under T5 fluorescent light differs dramatically. Current experimental result revealed TiO2 photoanode composed of (010) dominant facet, tetragonal nanorods demonstrated best 18.49% PCE under 300 Lux T5 fluorescent light illumination. On the other hand, the TiO2 photoanode composed of less fractions of (001) facet, decahedral nanocrystals suffered from severe interfacial charge recombination and consequently lost PCE significantly under dim light.
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.
