Organic semiconductors are getting more popularity in terms of using them in electronic devices and in creating new materials and inspecting them. However, organic materials carries few features which are considered as drawbacks, but they can be as advantages in other applications. For example, organic materials are sensitive to atmosphere conditions due to degradation to humidity and oxygen, mobility of charge carriers is low. However due to their usually rather amorphous state they can be implemented in applications where flexibility of a device is necessary. Although organic layers are usually amorphous, but slight difference in manufacturing conditions can cause a significant change in device performance as morphology of organic material is closely tied with the characteristics.
There are numerous studies of mixed organic materials (bulk heterojunctions) in solar cell structure devices. These studies bring useful information about optimal parameters of the device or optimal ratio of used materials. There only few studies where devices with a single PBDTTPD ((Poly[(5,6-dihydro-5-octyl-4,6-dioxo-4H-thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3-diyl)[4,8-bis[(2-ethylhexyl)oxy]benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-2,6-diyl]]) layer were inspected. In single layered devices only one material is working as an active layer and more information about it can be gathered. Morphology of that material can be easily tied with the parameters like mobility, current, recombination, efficiency. This information is crucial for better understanding how material works and how it can be used in other application and with other materials as well.
In this work we were analyzing hole transport properties in PBDTTPD layer employed in solar cell structure. By using photo-CELIV technique [1] we showed not only the possibilities of the technique for investigating organic layers, but measured hole mobility in the layer, recombination coefficient of the layer and Langevin’s recombination prefactor [2].
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.
