Perovskites videos

Perovskite-Connect is the industry's top event series, offering a combination of exciting online webinars and a flagship annual on-site event. Our inaugural meeting will take place on 21-23 October 2025, at the Estrel Conference Centre, Berlin, Germany. Perovskite-Connect is co-organised by TechBlick and Perovskite-Info and offers the best way to connect with the global perovksite industry and market.

In this article, we will share a few short videos from past events. First up, we have Microquanta's Yang Chen that details the latest performance of the company's perovskite panels - showing how they generate more electricity than silicon in harsh environments.

Oxford PV recently posted a cryptic message on its LinkedIn page, stating that: "Solar is about to enter a new era. Ready to see what’s next? We have some exciting news to share very soon....". Here's the video that followed this message: 

We'll have to wait and see what Oxford PV's big news is, hopefully it'll have something to do with imminent commercialization of the Company's PSC technology. In June, Oxford PV announced a record-setting 26.9% efficiency for its double-glass, 60-cell “residential sized” perovskite tandem module at the Intersolar Europe 2024 event. The module reportedly has a surface area of a little over 1.6 m square meters (1m x 1.7m) and weighs a little under 25 kg. In January, a research team from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE reported a PV module using perovskite silicon tandem solar cells from Oxford PV with an efficiency of 25% and an out-put of 421 watts on an area of 1.68 square meters, stating it is a record efficiency for a silicon perovskite tandem solar module in industrial format.

For years, the Helmholtz-Zentrum in Berlin has been researching the development of highly efficient perovskite tandem solar cells with great success. The HySprint Innovation Lab was founded specifically for this purpose, which cooperates internationally with other research groups as well as with industrial partners.

Many process steps are necessary to produce these highly efficient perovskite cells, which can all be realized together in the HySprint laboratory. A good research environment and high-quality equipment allow researchers to work optimally on their projects. The results at HZB are impressive. In recent years, the researchers have made significant progress in the field of perovskite tandem solar cells and achieved independently certified world record of tandem solar cells.

UK-based Quantum Solutions published this video below that demonstrates its latest perovskite QD film for LCD color conversion:

Quantum Solutions now offers its QDot SharpGreen Perovskite QDs Film, which is a polymer composite with embedded QDot SharpGreen Perovskite QDs. It is designed to be used in LCD backlighting units and sensor devices for X-rays and UV lights. The material has green emission 520-535 nm (depending on the concentration), high PLQY (up to 80-100 %) and narrow FWHM ( 70-80 % of initial photoluminescence within 1000 hours of exposing by heat (85 °C and blue light 10 mW/cm² exposure) and high relative humidity (90 % RH at 60 °C).

A research team at Stanford University has designed a new perovskite manufacturing process. In their work, the team demonstrated an ultrafast way to produce stable perovskite cells and assemble them into solar modules that could power devices, buildings and even the electricity grid.

'This work provides a new milestone for perovskite manufacturing,' said study senior author Reinhold Dauskardt, the Ruth G. and William K. Bowes Professor in the Stanford School of Engineering. 'It resolves some of the most formidable barriers to module-scale manufacturing that the community has been dealing with for years.'

An exciting application for perovskite QDs, which is likely to be the first commercial adoption of pQDs, is for the display market - films that convert blue LED LCD backlight to green.

Switzerland-based nanomaterial developer Avantama told us that the company passed the OEM qualification with its green pQD film, together with a KSF phosphor solution on the LED chip. Avantama expects the first commercial LCD display to adopt this solution to hit the market in 2021.

Singapore-based Nanolumi unveiled several display prototypes that adopt the company's perovskite quantum dots films.

In the video above, you can see a 32" mini-LED display, a 24" edge-lit LCD monitor and a 10-inch tablet. The company says its cadmium-free films combine the industry's narrowest color spectrum.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have created a nickel oxide material that shows signs of superconductivity.

Also known as a nickelate, it's the first in a potential new family of unconventional superconductors that's very similar to the copper oxides, or cuprates, whose discovery in 1986 raised hopes that superconductors could someday operate at close to room temperature and revolutionize electronic devices, power transmission and other technologies. Those similarities make scientists wonder if nickelates could also superconduct at relatively high temperatures.

China-based display maker China Star (CSoT, a subsidiary of TCL) demonstrated a 6.6-inch 384x300 OLED display that uses perovskite quantum dots as a color conversion film.

CSoT is using blue OLED emitter materials, and a perovskite layer to up-convert the color to green (this is a monochrome prototype - evidently a very early prototype). CSoT brands its perovskite-OLEDs as PE-OLED and we believe this is the first time a perovskite-enhanced display has been publicly demonstrated.

Saule Technologies has been working with construction company Skanska on integrating Saules perovskite solar cells into buildings on a commercial scale. Now, it was announced that Skanska has gone through with the installation of the first big format perovskite solar panel provided by Saule Technologies, integrated into its office in Warsaw, Poland. The size of the solar panel being tested on Skanska's Spark office building is 1.3 x 0.9 meters, containing 52 photovoltaic modules.

Skanska stated that the use of perovskite technology for zero-energy buildings is the latest innovation in the developer's sustainable building strategy. Skanska is pioneering a method of covering office building exteriors with semi-transparent perovskite solar cells on a commercial scale.
