Mixed halide perovskite single crystals (MHPSCs) have attracted considerable attention as promising building blocks for next-generation photovoltaic technologies due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties, low fabrication cost, and facile processability. However, their practical implementation remains limited by phase segregation, which severely undermines the material stability and device scalability. Among the various crystal growth strategies, additive engineering has emerged as an effective approach to address these challenges by facilitating the formation of passivating interfacial layers, enhancing nanoscale crystallinity, and reducing the defect density. In this study, the optical response and surface conductance of MHPSCs were investigated by using terahertz spectroscopy in both reflection and transmission geometries.The influence of choline bromide (CB) and the heterocyclic additive 3-aminopiperidine (API) on the phonon modes and terahertz response were also examined. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that the suppression of phase segregation, associated with stronger chemical bonding, contributes to an enhanced THz transmission in the modified MHPSCs. In addition, the THz response of the crystals was examined after approximately six months of ambient aging, revealing changes in the reflection response compared with measurements performed shortly after synthesis. Since the fresh and aged samples were characterized by using different THz spectroscopy configurations, the aging-related changes are interpreted qualitatively. Overall, combined time and frequency-domain imaging provides a comprehensive assessment of spatial and spectral heterogeneity, complementing bulk THz spectroscopy and highlighting the impact of additive-induced microstructural modifications on the THz dielectric response.

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.
