Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskite materials have emerged as the most promising and low-cost energy-harvesting materials for various optoelectronic device applications. Typically for the organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskite applied in photovoltaics, the power efficiency has been impressively improved to over 25% for single-junction solar cells and over 31% for perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells. However, there remain challenges for perovskite-based devices in moving towards commercialization, concerning their performance, stability, scaling up, and toxicity.These require the development and optimization of perovskite materials, interfaces, fabrication methods, device structure designs, etc.
This present Special Issue intends to highlight the latest advances and prospects in perovskite photovoltaics and optoelectronics. These include the latest advances in new perovskite photovoltaics, such as new perovskite materials as well as perovskite-based single-junction and tandem solar cells, and also the latest advances in perovskite optoelectronics, such as perovskite light-emitting diodes and photodetectors.
We invite researchers to contribute original research or review articles related to the latest advances and prospects in perovskite photovoltaics and optoelectronics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Optical properties of perovskite materials.
- New perovskite materials, e.g., 2D and lead-free.
- Stability of perovskite materials.
- Perovskite-based single-junction and tandem solar cells.
- Perovskite quantum dot solar cells.
- Perovskite light-emitting diodes and photodetectors.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
