Ferroelectric materials have been a focus of much research over the last few decades for
their unique piezoelectric and optoelectronic properties. Conventional solar cells have been …

Among the different types of multiferroic compounds, bismuth ferrite (BiFeO 3; BFO) stands
out because it is perhaps the only one being simultaneously magnetic and strongly …

Increasing environmental crises caused by exploring and using fossil fuels have compelled
human being to develop innovative technologies to utilize renewable and sustainable …

Different from classical semiconductor photovoltaic devices, for ferroelectric photovoltaic
devices, the open-circuit voltage (V oc) can be four and even more orders of magnitude …

We get insight into the atomic-molecular evolution of crystal engineering on BiFeO 3 (BFO).
Doping a small amount of Co ions into BFO enables us to introduce more oxygen vacancies …

Harvesting solar energy to solve the energy crisis and environmental pollution is a research
hotspot in the photovoltaic industry today. Conventional ferroelectric materials have a …

Application of ferroelectric oxides in photovoltaic devices has been revived by the
emergence of bismuth ferrite thin films, a lead-free perovskite with a narrow bandgap (∼ 2.7 …

The optical bandgap of orthorhombic ferroelectric KNbO 3 is shown to be continuously
controllable via Bi and Fe co-substitution according to a K 1-x Bi x Nb 1-x Fe x O 3 doping …

In this work, a significant visible-light photovoltaic effect is obtained under the influence of a
built-in electric field in BiFeO3 thin films. The photocurrent density, open-circuit voltage, and …

Anomalous photovoltaic effect and switchable photovoltaic output have propelled much
recent research and development of ferroelectric photovoltaic (FE-PV) materials in solar cell …
