Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Halide perovskites have been widely studied for their excellent electrical and optical properties, including tunable band gap, high charge carrier mobility, long lifetime, strong optical absorption, high luminescence efficiency, high defect tolerance and easy and low-cost fabrication using low-temperature solution process. Therefore, they are considered as promising materials for a variety of applications including photovoltaics, photodetectors, light-emitting diodes, lasers, photosynthesis and photocatalysts. Specifically, halide perovskite nanomaterials, including 0D quantum dots, 1D nanowires, 2D nanoplatelets and their combinations with mixed dimensions, have the advantages of both halide perovskites and nanomaterials and are emerging materials for optoelectronic devices. During the past few years, significant progress has been made toward the controlled synthesis of halide perovskite nanomaterials and the fabrication of high-performance optoelectronic devices. However, several major issues remain to be solved for the practical application of halide perovskites, for example, the synthesis of phase pure nanomaterials, the defect passivation of perovskite nanomaterials, the improvement of phase and environmental stability, the optimization of functional layers in optoelectronic devices, the design of lead-free perovskite materials and the large-scale synthesis for industrial applications.
This Special Issue aims to cover the recent progress on the design, synthesis and applications of halide perovskite nanomaterials, including but not limited to the following:
- Synthesis of halide perovskite nanomaterials;
- Design of novel lead-free halide perovskites;
- Defect and interfacial passivation;
- Advanced characterizations of halide perovskite nanomaterials;
- Optoelectronic devices including photovoltaics, light-emitting devices, photodetectors, and radiation detectors;
- Photocatalysts and photosynthesis;
- Biomedical applications.

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. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
