Perovskite nanoparticles (NCs) are well-established active layers for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to their affordable synthesis process and tunable optoelectronic properties. Nevertheless, NCs structural instability is a crucial bottleneck for having PSCs entering the market.1 It has been shown that NCs combined with chalcogenide semiconductors (CS) can lead to higher NC structure stability, with improved electron transport properties due to a decreasing of the hot carriers (HCs) cooling. This process could give access to high energy photons which usually are lost due to thermalization, going potentially beyond the Schockley-Queisser limit.2 Although some combinations of NCs/CS have been investigated, extensive literature about NCs/CS epitaxial heterostructures is still lacking. However, recently a CsPbBr3/PbSe epitaxial nanocrystal has been successfully synthetized, confirming its interesting HC properties.3 My contribution intends to make an important step in understanding the physical-chemical mechanisms behind the optoelectronic properties of CsPbBr3 / PbSe epitaxial nanocrystals by performing an accurate first principle and ab initio molecular dynamics study of the electronic and structural properties of the system.

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.
