Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, significant research efforts in physics, chemistry and material science have been directed towards the development and study of halide perovskites, which are certainly among the most promising class of materials for applications in the field of renewables, photonics, sensing and, more recently, medical diagnostics/therapy. Indeed, their composition and design can be tuned to satisfy requirements such as highly efficient radiative recombination, band-gap design, controllable material morphology/nanostructure, integration in photonic cavities and micro-resonators, etc. Such properties have already opened the way for innovative optoelectronic devices. This Special Issue will focus on:
- Modeling of the electronic and optical properties with a focus on lead-free perovskites;
- Defects and defect passivation: theory and experiments;
- High-resolution optical/electrical studies of films and nanostructures;
- Photonics and metasurfaces;
- Non-linear optics;
- Applications to light emitters (LEDs and lasers), sensing and radiation detection.
Please note: this list is not exhaustive and contributions on other topics can be considered.
Dr. Anna Vinattieri

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. Materials 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.

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.
