ABSTRACT: By taking advantage of the outstanding intrinsic optoelectronic properties of perovskite-based photovoltaic materials, together with the strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption and electronic confinement in PbS quantum dots (QDs), sub-bandgap photocurrent generation is possible, opening the way for solar cell efficiencies surpassing the classical limits. The present study shows an effective methodology ...
ABSTRACT: Pyrene molecule, with excellent photophysical properties (strong absorption cross section, excellent emission properties and a long-excited state lifetime), excellent thermal and photochemical stability, has been widely used as a building block for the synthesis of pyrene-based fluorophores for optoelectronic applications. In this work, we report the synthesis of two series of pyrene-pi-A compounds, s...

ABSTRACT: Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are one of the most promising photovoltaic technologies. Amongst several challenges, developing and optimizing efficient electron transport layers that can be up-scaled still remains a massive task. Admittance measurements on metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) devices allow to better understand the optoelectronic properties of the interface between perovskite and the charge ...
ABSTRACT: Luminescent Down-Shifting (LDS) is an optical approach applied in several photovoltaic (PV) technologies in which high energy solar radiation is converted to a wavelength region where the response of the photovoltaic devices is better. The use of LDS layers on organic photovoltaics (OPV) could serve two purposes: to prevent cell degradation by filtering the incident ultraviolet (UV) radiation and to i...

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are one of the most promising photovoltaic technologies. Amongst several challenges, developing and optimizing efficient electron transport layers (ETLs) that can be up-scaled still remains a massive task. Admittance measurements on Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) devices allow to better understand the optoelectronic properties of the interface between perovskite and the charge car...
ABSTRACT: Four novel TADF emitters, containing phenothiazine and phenoxazine as electron-donors and benzonitrile derivatives as electron-acceptors were synthesized and fully characterized. Their photophysical (absorption and emission spectra, molar extinction coefficients, fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes) and electrochemical properties (HOMO and LUMO energy levels) were measured, and drop-cast solid f...
