Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite submissionts to a Special Issue of the open access journal Sustainability in the area of perovskite solar cells. Over the past decade, perovskite solar cells have shown an astonishing deveploment with the energy conversion efficiency increasing from 3% in 2006 to over 25% in 2020 and the operational stability exceeding 1000 hours. These great progresses demonstrate a potential transition of our society to a green energy society for human sustainable development. Therefore, researches on perovskite based solar cells are booming due to the world wide expectation on their future applications.

With the great enthusiasm in this field, we are pleased to invite you to submit articles on perovskites to this Special Issue of Sustainability. This Special Issue will provide a summary on the great achievements, ongoing projects and perspectives in perovskite solar cells for our society’s sustainable development. Articles may study perovskites including (but not limited to) the following themes:

  • Materials and fabrication for perovskite solar cells
  • Methods for producing large area perovskite solar cess
  • Methods for increasing the conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells
  • Methods for elongating the operational lifetime
  • Fundamental studies, either experimental or theoratical, for illucidating mechnisms to improve the efficiency in perovskite solar cells
  • Industrialization of perovskite solar cells

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. Sustainability 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 2400 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.
