In recent years, a plethora of material systems have been designed and prepared to increase the performance of light harvesting and light-emitting technologies, and to develop new and attractive applications. Limitations of state-of-the-art devices based on organics (both conjugated polymers or small molecules/oligomers) derive largely from material stability issues after prolonged operation. This challenge could be tackled by leveraging the enhanced stability of carbon nanostructures, including carbon nanotubes, nanoribbons and the large family of graphene based materials, in carefully designed nano-hybrid or nano-composite architectures to be integrated within photo-active layers, paving the way to the exploitation of these materials in contexts in which their potential has not been yet fully revealed. In this talk, we discuss the theoretical background behind carbon nanomaterials hybridization with other materials for the establishment of novel optoelectronic properties. By retrieving to a multiscale computational protocol, it is possible to assess the opto-electronic, transport and transfer properties of the assembly and its components, in order to optimize the absorption of light and the transfer of energy/charges at the interface. In particular, we will focus on 0D/2D interfaces in which graphene is coupled with small organic molecules, and how the creation of an hybrid system is beneficial for the enhancement of the optoelectronic and transport properties of the materials.
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.
