Brighter perovskite LEDs Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites such as methyl ammonium lead halides are attractive low-cost light-emitting diode (LED) emitters. This is because, unlike many inorganic nanomaterials, they have very high color purity. Cho et al. made two modifications to address the main drawback of these materials, their low luminescent efficiency. They created nanograin materials lacking free metallic lead, which helped confine excitons and avoid quenching. The had a current...

Organolead-halide-perovskite-based solar cells have recently received significant attention due to their excellent photovoltaic performance and low cost. The general formula of this perovskite light harvester is RPbX3, where R X stand for a monovalent organic cation halide anion, respectively. Structures the cell are designed based on function perovskite. Organolead perovskites can be used either as sensitizers or n- p-type harvesters. Rapid progress has been made over past year since first...

Sb(2)S(3)-sensitized mesoporous-TiO(2) solar cells using several conjugated polymers as hole-transporting materials (HTMs) are fabricated. We found that the cell performance was strongly correlated with chemical interaction at interface of Sb(2)S(3) sensitizer and HTMs through thiophene moieties, which led to a higher fill factor (FF), open-circuit voltage (V(oc)), short-circuit current density (J(sc)). With application PCPDTBT...
