Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Perovskite solar cells have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar cells due to their high efficiency, low-cost manufacturing, and flexibility. Research on Perovskite solar cells is important as it can potentially revolutionize the renewable energy industry and contribute to a more sustainable future. Currently, researchers are focusing on improving the stability, scalability, and efficiency of Perovskite solar cells. Despite significant progress, challenges such as material degradation, toxicity, and scalability issues still exist. More research is needed to address these challenges and further optimize the performance of Perovskite solar cells for commercial applications. Overall, research on Perovskite solar cells is crucial for advancing renewable energy technologies and accelerating the transition towards a clean energy economy.

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. 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.
