Photochromic Control in Hybrid Perovskite Photovoltaics

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Aaron Tomas Terpstra

The application of perovskite photovoltaics is hampered by issues related to the operational stability upon exposure to external stimuli, such as voltage bias and light. The dynamic control of the properties of perovskite materials in response to light cou ...

Photo-doping of spiro-OMeTAD for highly stable and efficient perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Kai Zhu, Etienne Christophe Socie, George Cameron Fish, Aaron Tomas Terpstra

A widely used component of high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is the molecular hole-transport material (HTM) spiro-OMeTAD. This organic solid needs to be p-doped to acquire sufficient hole conductivity. However, the conventional doping method us ...

The Impact of Spacer Size on Charge Transfer Excitons in Dion–Jacobson and Ruddlesden–Popper Layered Hybrid Perovskites

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Jovana Milic, Lukas Pfeifer, George Cameron Fish, Masaud Hassan S Almalki, Algirdas Ducinskas, Aaron Tomas Terpstra, Loï Charles Carbone

Organic materials can tune the optical properties in layered (2D) hybrid perovskites, although their impact on photophysics is often overlooked. Here, we use transient absorption spectroscopy to probe the Dion−Jacobson (DJ) and Ruddlesden−Popper (RP) 2D pe ...

Resonant Band-Edge Emissive States in Strongly Confined CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanoplatelets

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Etienne Christophe Socie, Brener Rodrigo De Carvalho Vale, Aaron Tomas Terpstra

Strongly confined, fully inorganic cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are of great promise for light-emitting devices in the blue spectral range owing to their high photoluminescence quantum yields. A combination of broadband fluorescence up-conver ...
