Invited talk at the Aydin Group, LMU Munich

Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Junke Wang visited the Aydin Group at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU Munich) as an invited speaker at their Solar Energy Seminar Series.

The talk, titled Perovskite multijunction photovoltaics: materials, interfaces, and device platforms, covered the fundamental challenges of morphological and compositional disorder in perovskite films and how these lead to open-circuit voltage losses and stability issues in high-bandgap solar cells. Mitigation strategies based on templated crystal growth were presented, achieving open-circuit voltages approaching 90% of the theoretical limit across bandgaps from 1.8 to 2.3 eV. The talk also demonstrated efficient monolithic all-perovskite double-, triple-, and quadruple-junction solar cells with power conversion efficiencies beyond 27% at 1 cm².

The presentation was followed by stimulating discussions with members of Prof. Aydin’s group on interfacial engineering, long-term stability, and scalable deposition pathways. The visit also opened promising avenues for future collaboration, and we look forward to continued exchange.

We thank Prof. Erkan Aydin and his group for the warm welcome and the excellent scientific atmosphere. A summary of the visit has also been posted on the Aydin Group website.

Junke Wang joins South China University of Technology as Tenure-Track Professor

Sun, 17 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Junke Wang has signed a contract with South China University of Technology (SCUT) to join the School of Materials Science and Engineering and the State Key Laboratory of Luminescent Materials and Devices as a tenure-track professor and principal investigator.

The signing ceremony took place in Munich, Germany, and was attended by Professor Hongwu Tang, Member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

The LENS Lab will work on multijunction perovskite optoelectronics, targeting ultra-high efficiency solar modules, solar-driven fuel generation, and multilayer image sensors through advanced materials characterisation and optical design.

The LENS Lab welcomes applications from highly motivated and talented researchers. Interested candidates are welcome to get in touch.
