Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have achieved impressive progress, with power conversion efficiency ramping over 25%, which demonstrates their huge potential in commercialization. There are some companies emerging to develop commercial PSCs. However, stability remains a crucial issue in the application of PSCs due to decomposition and ions migration from the ionic compound character of lead-hailides perovskite. Currently, extensive efforts are dedicated to address this concern and deliver some primary and encouraging achievements, but these efforts are not enough. More comprehensive investigations and modulations regarding the stabilities of materials, devices and encapsulations are necessary in the commercialization process of PSCs.
In this Special Issue, we call for the reports on the stability of perovskite solar cells in various aspects worldwide. The main objective is to highlight recent research progress and new perspectives on this topic, contributing to the development of perovskite solar cells in their mass production route.

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. Materials 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 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.
