Title: Halide Perovskites –Promising Materials for Radiation Detection beyond Solar Cells

The research of halide perovskite solar cells continues to boom with device energy conversion efficiency approaching that of single crystal silicon solar cells within less than six years. One critical step in understanding why hybrid perovskite solar cells work so well is to determine the influence of defects on photon to current conversion process. I will present the advance in understanding the optoelectronic properties, unusual defect physics, and influence of defects on critical properties such as carrier diffusion length, charge recombination lifetime, carrier mobility and ion migration of solution processed perovskite materials. The discovery of the extraordinary properties enables new application of halide perovskite in radiation detection beyond solar cells. The recent
development of X-ray sensors, imagers, and gamma-ray spectrum detectors will be presented.
Jinsong Huang received his PhD degree in Material
Science and Engineering from the University of California-
Los Angeles in 2007. After working in Agiltron Inc. as a
research scientist for two years, he joined the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln in 2009 as an assistant professor in the
Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, and
was promoted to associate professor with tenure in 2014,
and professor in 2016. He joined the faculty in the
department of Applied Physical Sciences of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2017. His current research interests include solution processed electronic materials for applications in sensing, energy and consumer electronics. He has authored over 150 publications, and over 20 patents, 6 book chapters and 2 book. He served as the Chair of Material Engineering PhD Program at UNL, and was awarded as William E. Brooks Engineering Leadership Fellow in 2014, and Susan J. Rosowski University Professorship in 2015. He has received several awards including Edgerton Innovation Award (2012), NSF CAREER Award (2013), and DOD Young Investigator Award (2010).
