We report a general and effective procedure for the synthesis of NCs and bulk crystals of methylammonium (MA) lead halide perovskites employing N-methylformamide (NMF) as source of MA ions. This procedure takes advantage of the in-situ formation of MA via transamidation with alkylamine or acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of NMF, hence, reducing the amount of work, chemicals toxicity and cost required to realize high quality perovskites. Strongly fluorescent MAPbX3 NCs with photoluminescence quantum yields reaching 74% for MAPbBr3 and 60% for MAPbI3 could be synthesized using NMF and oleylamine by a simple reprecipitation process, without the need of degassing any solvents. Moreover, only through this NMF-hydrolysis strategy, bulk crystals can be grown without heating and without any anti-solvent. In principle, with the method described here, MA ions can be released “on-demand” during a process, for example by increasing the acidity of the medium or by raising the local temperature, which might enable a better control on the fabrication of this important class of materials. These possibilities are currently being studied in our groups.

International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
