State of the Art in Perovskite Solar Cells

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have received significant attention in recent years due to their facile fabrication and remarkable optoelectronic properties, leading to rapid advancements in this field. Over the past decade, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs has surged from an initial 3.8% to over 25%. Researchers have therefore studied various device structures, perovskite compositions, film deposition techniques, and underlying mechanisms.

This Special Issue of Micromachines, entitled “State of the Art in Perovskite Solar Cells”, provides a platform for the dissemination of significant research achievements. We welcome the submission of  original research articles, review papers, communications, and perspectives that focus on the latest developments in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with various structures. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

  • Multi-junction solar cells;
  • Inorganic perovskites;
  • Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites;
  • Two-dimensional perovskite solar cells;
  • Lead-free perovskite solar cells;
  • Tandem perovskite solar cells;
  • Perovskite solar cells with nanocrystals.

Dr. Jinfei Dai

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. Micromachines 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.
