Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit a work to this Special Issue titled “Advanced Coatings for Enhancing Properties and Applications of Organic/Inorganic Perovskite Solar Cells”.
This Special Issue will focus on technology used in perovskite thin films and organic/inorganic perovskite devices. Perovskite solar cells have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their impressive efficiency and potential for enabling low-cost manufacturing. To enhance the properties and application potential of organic/inorganic perovskite solar cells, various coatings can be employed. These coatings can serve multiple purposes, including improving stability, enhancing light absorption, and reducing charge recombination.
We invite you to share your original research articles and reviews for inclusion in this Special Issue, the topics of interest in which include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Thin-film coatings for solar cells;
- Development of coatings for organics/inorganic perovskite devices;
- Optimization process of coatings in organic/inorganic perovskite devices.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Coatings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2600 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.
