$TiO_2/CH_3NH_3Pb_{1-x}Sb_xI_{3-3x}Br_{3x}-based$ photovoltaic devices were fabricated by a spin-coating method using mixture solutions with $SbBr_3$. Effects of $SbBr3$, CsI or RbBr addition to $CH_3NH_3PbI_3$ precursor solutions on the photovoltaic properties where investigated. The short-circuit current densities and photoconversion efficiencies were improved by adding a small amount of $SbBr_3$, CsI or RbBr to the perovskite phase, which would be due to the doping effect of Sb, Br and Cs/Rb atom at the Pb, I and $CH_3NH3$ sites, respectively.

MoO₃ metal oxide nanostructure was formed by hydrothermal synthesis, and a perovskite solar cell with an MoO₃ hole transfer layer was fabricated and evaluated. The characteristics of the MoO₃ thin film were analyzed according to the change of hydrothermal synthesis temperature in the range of 100 ℃ to 200 ℃ and mass ratio of AMT : nitric acid of 1 : 3 ~ 15 wt%. The influence on the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell was evaluated. Nanorod-shaped MoO₃ thin films were formed in the temperature range of 150 ℃ to 200 ℃, and the chemical bonding and crystal structure of the thin films were analyzed. As the amount of nitric acid added increased, the thickness of the thin film decreased. As the thickness of the hole transfer layer decreased, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell improved. The maximum photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell having an MoO₃ thin film was 4.69 % when the conditions of hydrothermal synthesis were 150 ℃ and mass ratio of AMT : nitric acid of 1 : 12 wt%.

Field-effect transistors (FETs) are the key elements of conventional electronics; hence, have drawn a lot of research and commercial interests. In recent years, metal halide perovskite materials have achieved a remarkable efficiency of 29.15% in the field of photovoltaics, and have drawn the scientific community's attention to promote their use in the field of optoelectronics, such as FETs and phototransistors. The MAPbI₃ (methylammonium lead iodide) perovskite TFT has achieved a record hole mobility of 21.41 cm²/V-s in the year 2020. In this review, we will briefly discuss the physical structure of MAPbI₃ perovskite and the essential factors that stimulate these devices, together with the role of defects, the ion migration concept, and the implication of both dielectric and electrode materials on the device's performance.

With rapid growth in light-harvesting efficiency from 3.8 to 25.8%, organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted great attention as promising photovoltaic devices. However, despite of their outstanding performance, the commercialization of PSCs has been suffered from severe stability issues, especially for UV and humidity: (i) UV irradiation towards PSCs is able to lead UV-induced decomposition of perovskite films or catalytic reactions of charge-transporting layers, and (ii) exposure to surrounding humidity causes irreversible hydration of perovskite layers by the penetration of water molecules, resulting considerable decrease in their power-conversion efficiency (PCE). This review investigates current status of strategies to enhance UV and humidity stability of PSCs in terms of UV-management and moisture protection, respectively. Furthermore, the multifunctional approach to increase long-term stability as well as performance is discussed as advanced research directions for the commercialization of PSCs.

본 논문에서는 ATi$O_3$(A=Ca, Sr, Ba) 조성을 갖는 단순 페롭스카이트 구조에서 생성되는 격자결함 구조에 대하여 고찰하였다. 페롭스카이트 구조는 고충전밀도를 갖기 때문에 프렌클 결함은 고려되지 않았다. 쇼트키결함이나, 고유전자결함도 자연적으로 포함된 억셉타 불순물 농도에 비하면 무시할 정도로 적은 양이다. 실제적으로 전기적 특성에 영향을 주는 것은 전하적 결함을 발생하는 aliovalent 불순물이다. 삼성분계이기 때문에 양이온간의 비화학양론이 발생하며 BaTi$O_3$나 SrTi$O_3$에서 수백 ppm이내의 AO나 Ti$O_2$의 용해도가 관찰되나, CaTi$O_3$에서는 상당량의 CaO와 $TiO_2의$ 용해가 가능하다.

Color conversion layer refers to a layer that converts the blue light emitted from the backlight into the red and green light. Heavy metal-free quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals have attracted great attention as base materials for color conversion layers due to their outstanding optical characteristics. Here, we review recent advances in the development of color conversion layers based on quantum dots. First, we overview the representative optical characteristics of quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals, and then introduce printing techniques for color converting layers including photolithography, inkjet printing, and nanoimprinting. Finally, we conclude this review with a brief perspective.

The intermediate operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) have achieved considerable importance in the area of power fabrication. This is because to improve materials compatibility, their long-term stability and cost saving potential. However, to conserve rational cell performance at reduced-temperature regime, cathode performance should be obtained without negotiating the internal resistance and the electrode kinetics of the cell. Recently, double perovskite structure cathodes have been studied with great attention as a potential material for IT-SOFCs. In this study, double-perovskite structured cathodes of $GdBaCoCuO_{5+\delta}$, $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ compositions and $(1-x)GdBaCo_2O_{5+\delta}+xCe_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{1.95}$ (x = 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt.%) composites were evaluated as the cathode for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells(IT-SOFCs). Electrical conductivity of the cathodes were measured by DC 4-probe method, and the thermal expansion coefficient of each sample was measured up to $900^{\circ}C$ by a dilatometer study. Area specific resistances(ASR) of the $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ cathode and 70 wt.% $GdBaCo_2O5+\delta$ + 30wt.% Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95 composite cathode on CGO electrolyte substrate were analyzed using AC 3-probe impedance study. The obtained results demonstrate that double perovskite-based compositions are promising cathode materials for IT-SOFCs.

Solar cells, converting abundant solar energy into electrical energy, are considered crucial for sustainable energy generation. Recent advancements focus on nanoparticle-enhanced solar cells to overcome limitations and improve efficiency. These cells offer two potential efficiency enhancements. Firstly, plasmonic effects through nanoparticles can improve optical performance by enhancing absorption. Secondly, nanoparticles can improve charge transport and reduce recombination losses, enhancing electrical performance. However, factors like nanoparticle size, placement, and solar cell structure influence the overall performance. This study evaluates the performance of silver nanoparticles incorporated in a p-i-n structure of perovskite solar cells, generated via aerosol state by the evaporation and condensation system. The silver nanoparticles deposited between the hole transport layer and transparent electrode form nanoparticle embedded transport layer (NETL). The evaluation of the optoelectronic properties of perovskite devices using NETL demonstrates their potential for improving efficiency. The findings highlight the possibility of nanoparticle incorporation in perovskite solar cells, providing insights for sustainable energy generation.

기계화학공정(MCP; Mechano Chemical Process)은 원료 분말이 기계적인 에너지로 인해 상 형성이 활성화되기 때문에 기존의 볼밀링을 이용한 고상반응에서 필수적인 높은 온도에서의 하소 공정이 필요하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 고 에너지 MCP 방법을 이용하여 perovskite 구조를 가지는 PLT 나노 분말을 제조하였다. 특히, 일반적으로 출발물질로 염을 이용하는 것과 달리 산화물을 원료 분말로 사용하여 어떠한 열처리 공정 없이 PLT 나노 분말을 합성하였다. 또한 건식으로 밀링을 하여 분말 건조 공정이 필요 없어서 공정이 간단하다. MCP 밀링은 시간 별로 12시간까지 진행하였으며, 제조된 분말의 상 분석과 결정면 분석 결과 3시간 이후에는 perovskite 구조의 순수한 PLT 상을 형성하였다. 또한 마이크로 크기의 원료 분말이 밀링 3시간이 지나자 약 20 nm 크기의 균일한 나노 입자가 생성되었다.

본 총설에서는 최근 전세계적으로 각광 받고 있는 유기 금속 할라이드 페로브스카이트 소재에서 일어나는 이온 이동 현상에 대한 최신 연구에 대해 정리하였다. 페로브스카이트 물질 조성, 인가전압에 따라 다른 결과들이 보고되었지만, 실제 태양전지 작동 조건에서 iodide 가 이동하는 것으로 보이며, 때로는 methylammonium의 이동도 관찰된다. 페로브스카이트는 상온에서 전자와 이온이 동시에 이동하는 이른바 mixed conductor이고, 이는 페로브스카이트 태양전지 전류-전압곡선의 hysteresis, 장시간 작동에 따른 성능 저하 등에 지대한 영향을 미친다.
