Measuring Aging Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract

Michael Saliba is a Group Leader at the Adolphe Merkle Institute in Fribourg, Switzerland. His group studies novel materials focusing on perovskites for a sustainable energy future. Michael was a Marie Curie Fellow at EPFL. He obtained his PhD at Oxford University, an MSc with the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, and BSc degrees in mathematics and physics from Stuttgart University. Michael was awarded the Young Scientist Award of the German University Association, was named one of the World's 35 Innovators Under 35 by the MIT Technology Review, and is a Member of the Global Young Academy. Martin Stolterfoht is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Soft Matter Physics group at the University of Potsdam, Germany. He completed his Master degree in Physics at the University of Graz and obtained his PhD at the University of Queensland Australia in 2016 before moving to Potsdam. His research is focused on improving device efficiency through a fundamental understanding of charge transport and recombination processes in perovskite and organic solar cells. Christian M. Wolff obtained an MSc in Physics from Ludwig-Maximilians- Universitat Munchen with a focus on spectroscopy on semiconductor nanomaterials for solar-to-fuel conversion with Prof. J. Feldmann. He joined Prof. Neher's group in 2015 investigating halide perovskites and loss mechanisms in single and multijunction solar cells. Dieter Neher is a full professor of Soft Matter Physics at the University of Potsdam, Germany. He received his Diploma in Physics and his PhD in Chemical Physics at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany. He worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Optical Science Center in Tuscon and the CREOL in Orlando, US. His current research focuses on the understanding and improvement of the electrical and optoelectronic properties of organic conjugated materials, hybrid organic/inorganic systems and organometallic perovskite semiconductors, and the implementation of such materials into highly efficient devices. Antonio Abate is a group leader at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin in Germany and Visiting Professor at Fuzhou University in China. His group is currently researching novel active materials and interfaces to make stable perovskite solar cells. Before his move to the Helmholtz, Antonio was leading the solar cell research at the Adolphe Merkle Institute in Switzerland. After his PhD in Politecnico di Milano in Italy, he was a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne and postdoctoral researcher at the University of Oxford.
