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 ...

Tailoring p-Type Behavior in ZnO Quantum Dots through Enhanced Sol–Gel Synthesis: Mechanistic Insights into Zinc Vacancies

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Andrea Cannizzo, Etienne Christophe Socie, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Victoria Kabanova

The synthesis and control of properties of p-type ZnO is crucial for a variety of optoelectronic and spintronic applications; however, it remains challenging due to the control of intrinsic midgap (defect) states. In this study, we demonstrate a synthetic ...

Surface Passivation of FAPbI3-Rich Perovskite with Cesium Iodide Outperforms Bulk Incorporation

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Kevin Sivula, Jun Ho Yum, Mounir Driss Mensi, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Lukas Pfeifer, Jing Gao, Thomas Paul Baumeler

Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have shown an incredible increase in efficiency, reaching as high as 25.7%, which now competes with traditional photovoltaic technologies. Herein, we excluded CsX and RbX (X = I–, Br–, Cl–), the most commonly used cations to ...

Photogenerated charge transfer in Dion-Jacobson type layered perovskite based on naphthalene diimide

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Kevin Sivula, Jun Ho Yum, Etienne Christophe Socie, George Cameron Fish, Simon Nussbaum

Incorporating organic semiconducting spacer cations into layered lead halide perovskite structures provides a powerful approach to mitigate the typical strong dielectric and quantum confinement effects by inducing charge-transfer between the organic and in ...

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 ...
