Invited

Metal halide perovskites have emerged as a highly promising class of semiconductors for optoelectronic applications due to their exceptional light absorption, tunable emission, and efficient charge transport. These cost-effective materials have demonstrated an unprecedented rise in solar power conversion efficiency, surpassing 25% within a decade, outpacing conventional silicon photovoltaics....

Oral

Rb-based metal halide materials possess large attenuation coefficients and bright luminescence making them suitable as scintillators for X-ray detection. Here, we present the first report of an optimised anti-solvent synthesis method enabling gram-scale preparation of phase-pure Rb2AgX3, (X = Cl, Br) metal halides, which show broadband emission centred at 585 nm and 514 nm, respectively. We...

Oral

Halide perovskites based on the ABX3 structure have recently gained significant attention for emerging optoelectronic applications, including low-dimensional phases, double perovskites (A2BB’X6), and vacancy-ordered derivatives (A2BX6) [1]. In this context, vacancy-ordered double perovskites (VO-PVSKs) offer an alternative by replacing lead with high-Z elements, which are potentially less...

19. Compressed Semiconductors for X-ray Detection: Achievements and Perspectives from Bi-Based Hybrids to Lead-Free Double Perovskites and Binary Chalcogenides

Prof. Olena Maslyanchuk (Department Solution-Processing of Hybrid Materials and Devices, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin)

Oral

Compressed semiconductors have recently emerged as a promising materials platform for scalable, low-cost, and high-performance X-ray detection, offering an attractive alternative to conventional single-crystal technologies. By enabling dense detector architectures through powder compaction, this approach opens new opportunities for simplified device fabrication while maintaining excellent...
