Selected Papers from 2nd School on Hybrid, Organic and Perovskite Photovoltaics (HOPE-PV20)
This special issue belongs to the section “A2: Solar Energy and Photovoltaic Systems“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will cover the most recent trends in the development of emerging photovoltaic technologies which utilize different types of organic and hybrid materials. A particular focus will be made on the design and advanced characterization of new materials for solar cells, as well as promising strategies for improving device efficiencies and extending their lifetimes. Technological approaches to upscaling flexible organic and perovskite solar cells, enabling their large-scale production using high-throughput roll-to-roll coating and printing techniques and perspectives of their commercialization will be discussed.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Organics.
Prof. Dr. Pavel Troshin
Guest Editor
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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Energies 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 2600 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.
