Prof. Zijian Zheng, Professor of ITC, is the editor-in chief of EcoMat, a journal co-published by PolyU and Wiley. The aim of EcoMat is to publish on a wide variety of topics from different disciplines that share a focus on cutting-edge advanced materials for green energy and the environment. In May and June 2020, EcoMat organized two webinars on solar cells. The first webinar, “EcoMat Perovskite Solar Cells Webinar”, was held on 20 May which featured the following speakers and topics:
- Prof. Sang Il Seok of the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology: “The impact of A-site cationic management in ‘APb13’ perovskite solar cells”
- Prof. Hongwei Han of the Huazhong University of Science and Technology: “Highly stable printable mesoscopic perovskite solar cells”
- Prof. Feng Yan of PolyU: “Strategies for achieving high-performance Sn-based perovskite solar cells”
The second webinar, “EcoMat Organic Solar Cells Webinar”, was held on 17 June and featured the following speakers and topics:
- Prof. Feng Gao of Linköping University : “Voltage losses in organic solar cells”
- Prof. He Yan of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology: “How to make efficient non-fullerene organic solar cells – material design, device optimization and operation mechanism”
- Prof. Yingping Zou of Central South University: “A-DA’D-A type (or Y-series) acceptor based organic solar cells”
