Fabrication of DSSC solar cells using ZAZ as a TCO layer has been reported. Device with ZAZ shows low shunt resistance and higher series resistance and the PCE% is equivalent to that of FTO. The ZAZ 2 structure has shown maximum optical transparency of about 86.5% at around 508 nm with very low sheet resistance (5.3 Ω/□) and electrical resistivity (3.67×10-5 Ω.cm) and higher figure of merit (25.4 ×10-3 Ω-1 ). The prepared ZAZ samples shows work function tunability, which can be beneficial for solar cell applications as different types of solar cells demands different work function. Mobility enhancement for 10 nm Ag layer is due to the reduction of interface scattering as the Ag layer becomes continuous with increase in the thickness. The decrease in the sheet resistance of the structure is due to the increase in free carrier availability and higher mobility of the charge carriers with increased Ag layer thickness.
This research work was performed under the project “Strategic University Network to Revolutionise Indian Solar Energy (SUNRISE)”.
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.
