Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Perovskite materials have attracted significant attention due to their unique crystal structures and remarkable properties, offering broad applications in areas such as photovoltaics, optoelectronics, catalysis, and energy storage. This Special Issue, "Perovskites: Crystal Structure, Properties and Applications," aims to provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the synthesis, structural analysis, and application of perovskite materials. We welcome contributions focusing on novel synthesis techniques, characterization methods, and innovative applications of perovskites. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Structural, electrical, and optical properties of perovskites

Advanced characterization techniques

Stability and performance optimization

Applications in energy storage, solar cells, sensors, and electronics

Computational modeling and machine learning approaches in perovskite research

We invite researchers and practitioners to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies to contribute to this Special Issue.

We look forward to your valuable contributions.

Best regards,

Dr. Kais Iben Nassar
Dr. Ben Salem Imen
Dr. Manuel Pedro Fernandes Graça

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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
