Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to their easy fabrication and excellent optoelectronic properties, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted wide interest and continued to develop at a rapid pace. A series of device structure, perovskite composition, film deposition technology and mechanism exploration have been intensely studied. To date, the performance of PSCs is comparable with traditional silicon solar cells, showing great potential for commercialization. In order to systematically exhibit the latest advances in this field, we would like to organize a Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Perovskite Solar Cells” in Photonics.
The Special Issue aims at covering the following topics:
- Novel device architectures and engineering strategies for PSCs;
- Advances in perovskite material compositions and their impact on device performance;
- Stability and durability of perovskite solar cells;
- Interface engineering and charge transport in PSCs;
- Integration of perovskite solar cells in tandem or hybrid device structures;
- Large-scale manufacturing and commercialization prospects for PSCs;
- Environmental impact and life cycle analysis of perovskite solar cells;
- Emerging applications and future directions for PSCs.
This Special Issue aims to collect at least 10 articles, and they may be printed in book form if this number is reached.
Based on your expertise, we are pleased to invite you to submit an article. Research articles, reviews, short communications and perspectives are all welcome. 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. Photonics 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 2400 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
