Proceedings of International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV19)
Publication date: 6th February 2020
This work consists in studying the implementation of double perovskite materials in the form of thin film and showing the effect of the deposition conditions on the structural properties (uniformity, coverage rate, roughness, thickness, crystallinity, crystallite size) and on the optoelectronic properties (light absorption, electron-hole pair generation efficiency, charge diffusion length, recombination...).
Before considering ultrasonic spray pyrolysis deposition, preliminary spin-coating tests are ongoing in order to verify the formation of Cs2AgBiBr6 phase according to the protocol reported by Greul et al. (J. Mater Chem A (2017), 19972-19981). The effect of precursors concentration, thermal post-treatment (hot plate/oven, temperature/duration), antisolvent dripping, relative humidity - which are reported as critical parameters for the preparation of high efficiency lead halides perovskite solar cells - on the layer morphology have been studied. The (micro)structural properties of the layers (uniformity, coverage rate, crystallite size, crystalline phase) have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. To improve charge collection within the lead-free double perovskite photoactive material, we have also investigated a mesoporous TiO2 network as an electron collecting material filled by Cs2AgBiBr6. Efficiencies of 1.3% have been reached for our best PV cells which are very promising results.

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.
