Jeevan Torres

Bio and research interests
Jeevan Torres is a PhD student at the Group of Advanced Materials (GAS) with an FPI grant. He got his bachelor's (2018) and master's (2020) degrees at the Autonomous University of Zacatecas, Mexico. He made a research stay at SalibaLab in the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany; under the supervision of Prof. Michael Saliba. He also Visited the HySprint Lab at Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin, in Prof. Antonio Abate's Group. Working on multiple cation perovskite solar cells. Currently, he's working on the Stable Project. Focusing on studying, analyzing and characterizing the physical mechanisms inducing perovskite phase stability, evaluating the role of surface energy and strain in the phase stabilization, and identifying the best material candidates to present both, interesting optoelectronic properties and easy phase stabilization. Along with fabricating optoelectronic devices, solar cells, and LEDs, with these materials obtaining devices with properties beyond the current state-of-the-art in terms of light absorption, content of Pb or transport and recombination, optimizing the performance and analyzing the environmental impact of these new materials and devices. His interests are in compositional engineering of perovskite materials, optoelectronic devices and impedance spectroscopy.
