Perovskite solar cells have established themselves as the front runner new technology to enter the PV market. Their fast development is now promising that both single-junction and tandem perovskite modules will soon enter industrial production. First modules have reportedly already been commercially available, nevertheless, there are still things to learn about perovskite field operation, arising questions about their long-term stability. While stability is an important and often researched topic, the large scale stability tests have not been performed often. Instead, typically only the stability of the champion device is shown. Several factors contribute to that, such as complex and expensive equipment as well as availability of a large number of similarly performing perovskite devices.
In the presentation, we will show our recent results obtained with the in-house developed WLED system that is designed for simultaneous long-term MPP tracking of up to 144 perovskite solar cells. Besides discuss reproducibility of our devices, the influence of light intensity on stability of the devices, and compare stability under cyclic and continuous illumination. Special focus will be paid to disentangling humidity and light as main degradation stressors for perovskite devices. For that, capping of devices with Al2O3 is implemented, enabling long-term testing without moisture degradation. This makes long-term measurements in air are possible without the need for encapsulation, which should accelerate mass testing of perovskite solar cells. Finally, we will also discuss aspects of perovskite tandem solar cell testing and present a dedicated bichromatic setup for their testing.
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.
