5. 내  용 : There are a large variety of materials being developed for application in solar energy conversion. The majority are based upon naturally occurring minerals (so-called solar mineralogy). The general procedure has been to take a multi-component system and tune the chemical composition to optimise optical absorption for the terrestrial solar spectrum. Other factors also determine whether a material can be practically employed in a photovoltaic or photoelectrochemical system, for example, the absolute band energies (work functions), defect physics, and chemical stability. I will present our recent progress into the design and optimisation of new solar energy materials with an emphasis on computing photovoltaic performance descriptors from materials simulations [1-5], including advances in structure-property relationships in the kesterite (e.g. Cu2ZnSnS4) and perovskite (e.g. CsSnI3 and CH3NH3PbI3) families, in addition to the matlockite (PbFCl type) and herzenbergite (SnS type) systems. New directions in the field, such as the development of photoferroic materials, will also be addressed.
