• openAccess   Welcoming the First Decade of Perovskite Solar Cells 

      Zhou, Yuanyuan; Saliba, Michael; Mora-Sero, Ivan Wiley (2019-09-02)
      The swift emergence of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is a “miracle” development in the history of photovoltaics. Since Miyasaka and co‐workers (Toin University of Yokohama, Japan) reported the first use of halide perovskites ...
    • openAccess   White light emission from lead-free mixed-cation doped Cs2SnCl6 nanocrystals 

      Das Adhikari, Samrat; Echeverría-Arrondo, Carlos; S. Sánchez, Rafael; Chirvony, Vladimir; Martínez-Pastor, Juan P.; Muñoz-Sanjose, Vicente; Agouram, Said; Mora-Sero, Ivan Royal Society of Chemistry (2022-01-13)
      We have designed a synthesis procedure to obtain Cs2SnCl6 nanocrystals (NCs) doped with metal ion(s) to emit visible light. Cs2SnCl6 NCs doped with Bi3+, Te4+ and Sb3+ ions emitted blue, yellow and red light, respectively. ...
    • openAccess   Widening the 2D/3D Perovskite Family for Efficient and Thermal-Resistant Solar Cells by the Use of Secondary Ammonium Cations 

      Rodríguez Romero, Jesús; Sanchez-Diaz, Jesus; Echeverría-Arrondo, Carlos; Masi, Sofia; Esparza, Diego; Barea, Eva M; Mora-Sero, Ivan American Chemical Society (2020-03-02)
      While 2D/3D layered perovskites have been the object of comprehensive research principally focused on increasing the long-term stability observed in 3D perovskites, significant opportunities still exist concerning the ...
    • openAccess   WO3/BiVO4: impact of charge separation at the timescale of water oxidation 

      Selim, Shababa; Francàs Forcada, Laia; García-Tecedor, Miguel; Corby, Sacha; Blackman, Chris; Gimenez, Sixto; Durrant, James; Kafizas, Andreas Royal Society of Chemistry (2019-01-16)
      The four hole oxidation of water has long been considered the kinetic bottleneck for overall solar-driven water splitting, and thus requires the formation of long-lived photogenerated holes to overcome this kinetic barrier. ...
    • openAccess   α-FAPbI3 powder presynthesized by microwave irradiation for photovoltaic applications 

      Solis, Omar E.; Fernández-Saiz, Carolina; Rivas Martínez, Jesús Manuel; Esparza, Diego; Turren Cruz, Silver Hamill; Julian-Lopez, Beatriz; Boix, Pablo P; Mora-Sero, Ivan Elsevier (2022-12-10)
      The development of up-scalable and high-throughput methodologies to fabricate high-efficiency lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) based on α-phase formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI3) is one of the main challenges of ...
