Details

Ferroelectric materials have shown great potential as the promising alternative for green energy harvesting, especially in photovoltaic (PV) and photodetector applications. Anomalous open circuit voltage (VOC) coupled with switchable photocurrents are the main advantages of ferroelectric photovoltaics than the conventional p-n junction solar cell. So far, the PV effect in ferroelectric system is mostly concentrated on inorganic perovskites and organic ferroelectrics are not explored due to low spontaneous polarization (Ps) and stability factor. In this context, recently few organic ferroelectric materials reported to show Ps value comparable to inorganic perovskite oxides along with better stability. In this work, it is proposed to investigate the PV and photodetector properties of suitable inorganic oxides and organic molecular ferroelectric materials towards achieving better characteristic parameters. As a part of the ongoing work, the work done on PV and photodetector application on organic molecular ferroelectric diisopropylammonium Bromide samples will be discussed.
