I'm focused on the synthesis and characterization of materials for application in solar cells, emphasizing the production of hybrid perovskites (CH3NH3PbI3). It is interesting to mention that this research resulted in the development of two new techniques to synthesize hybrid perovskite thin films through rf-sputtering. This new methodology can viable the large-area and large-scale, once sputtering already is used in the electronic device industry for decades and could be easily adapted to this end. All produced materials were carefully investigated by several experimental techniques such as x-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, infrared and Raman spectroscopy, etc. These two approaches presented new ways to produce perovskite thin films and nanorods, which have potential to improve the actual state of research in perovskite solar cells.
