Physical insights of Mn(II) doping in CsPbCl3-armed hexapod nanostructures is presented. These complex structures were typically formed in halide concentration tuned modulated reactions. Cores were first formed under halide deficient condition and with\enriching halides; these were transformed to armed structures. Doping of Mn(II) was observed facilitated during the arm growth in the second stage of the reaction. These observations were supported with decoupled reactions with minimized and maximized halide concentrations carried out in separate reactions. In the decoupled process, while the halide-rich system led to exclusive platelets and showed the brightest emission in dopant ions, the halide-deficient reaction gave nanocubes with poor dopant concentration and less intense emission. However, these newly designed hexapods where halide concentration was in situ tuned in a single reaction remained at the intermediate. Moreover, less interference for the exciton to dopant energy transfer was noticed for the defect states created in halide deficient medium, and the intensity of the dopant emission remained proportional to the amount of dopant inserted in the nanocrystals. These finding not only supported the facts that free halides promote Mn(II) incorporation but also provided strong evidence for the same in a single reaction, which led to the formation of a new type of doped nanostructures.

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.
