Proceedings of Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP20)
Publication date: 14th October 2019
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been expected to be one of the next-generation solar cells because of high power conversion efficiency and low manufacturing cost. Recently, their power conversion efficiencies (h) became to exceed 20%, and low cost printing processes applicable to their manufacturing preparation tend to accelerate the possibilities of practical use. Despite these circumstances, the reliability assessments based on the international standards for their performance evaluation have not been established, and therefore their commercialization has not been discussed in comparing with the normalized data given by the evaluation organizations in the world.
Since PSCs show slow current response to applied voltage and performance change with time, it is difficult to determine the maximum power (Pmax) by the conventional I-V measurement procedure. In this paper, we have tried to apply three methods to determine the Pmax of PSCs. The three methods are as follows: (1) Maximum power point tracking (MPPT), (2) Dynamic (or Stabilized) I-V methods and (3) Steady-state (or Stabilized) power output (SPO), also called as Stabilized current at fixed voltage (SCFV). Although three methods for Pmax determination is same in principle and may offer almost same results, we recommend the MPPT method free from oscillation for slow-responding metastable devices because a continuous MPPT measurement provides not only Pmax but also information for steady-state.

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.
