Advanced Perovskite Films for Photovoltaic Application

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to submit your work to this Special Issue on “Advanced Perovskite Films for Photovoltaic”. Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskite solar cells have attracted enormous research interest and have developed rapidly. In just a few years, the power conversion efficiency of PSCs has rapidly increased from the initial 3.8% to the certified 25.5% and has shown great potential for continuous improvement. The focus of this Special Issue will be on the technology of perovskite thin films and perovskite devices. Excellent perovskite film and crystal characteristics can effectively improve the stability and energy conversion efficiency of the device. Especially in interface passivation, crystal optimization, etc., this has been widely used to improve device efficiency. The aim of this Special Issue is to present the latest experimental and theoretical developments in the field, through a combination of original research papers and review articles from leading groups around the world.

In particular, the topic of interest includes but is not limited to

• Interface passivation and crystal optimization of perovskite film;
• Preparation of indoor perovskite photovoltaic devices;
• Optimization process of lead-free perovskite devices;
• Preparation of a new two-dimensional perovskite devices.
