Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as promising candidates for the next generation of photovoltaics (PV). The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs has reached 26.7%, already rivaling that of the conventional silicon PV. However, the commercialization of PSCs is still limited by their short lifetime and enormous PCE loss in large-area devices. In addition, PSCs can be employed in more application scenarios than silicon PV, owing to their unique properties, which should be explored and investigated.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Diverse application scenarios of PSCs;
- The efficiency evolvement of PSCs;
- The stability improvement of PSCs;
- Large-area perovskite solar modules (PSMs);
- Novel fabrication/characterization techniques for PSCs.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
