Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Perovskites have been one of the most important emerging research fields in recent years. This Special Issue focuses on perovskite materials, large-area perovskite solar modules, interface engineering, transport materials, stability and encapsulation, and lead-free perovskite devices. From crystallization regulation to scalable fabrication, various types of perovskite solar cells show significant potential and have found extensive applications as BIPV and indoor photovoltaic devices.

In this Special Issue, contributions on several topics are welcome :

  • Structural understanding of perovskite.
  • Novel transport materials design and synthesis.
  • Perovskite crystal growth.
  • Large-area perovskite solar modules.
  • Lead-free perovskite materials and devices.

Experimental and theoretical contributions, as well as related progress summaries and perspectives, are all welcome.

We present double-perovskite molybdate with the formula of Ba2MgMoO6 doped with Sm3+ ions as a potential red phosphor to improve the color characteristics of white-light-emitting dioded (wLEDs). The new orange–red phosphor was synthesized using the co-precipitation (CP) method, and then its structural and spectroscopic properties were determined. Red emission at 642.6 nm dominates, which results from the electric dipole (ED) transition of the 4G5/26H9/2 type, and the materials are characterized by short luminescence decay times. BMM:Sm3+ is, to our best knowledge, the clearest example of dominant red emission of Sm3+ resulting from the location of the dopant in octahedral sites of high-symmetry cubic structure. In the sample containing 0.1% Sm3+, Sm3+ ions are located in both Mg2+ and Ba2+ sites, while at higher concentrations the Ba2+ site is less preferable for doping, as a result of which the emission becomes more uniform and single-site. The relative sensitivity calculated from FIR has a maximum of 2.7% K−1 at −30 °C and another local maximum of 1.6% K−1 at 75 °C. Such value is, to the best of our knowledge, one of the highest achieved for luminescent thermometry performed using only Sm3+ ions. To sum up, the obtained materials are good candidates as red phosphor to improve the color characteristics of wLEDs, obtaining a color-rendering index (CRI) of 91 and coordinated color temperature (CCT) of 2943 K, constituting a warm white emission. In addition to this, a promising precedent for temperature sensing using high-symmetry perovskite materials is the high sensitivity achieved, which results from the high symmetry of the BMM host.
