Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Halide perovskite semiconductors have attracted tremendous interest from both academia and industry. Characterized by the surge of power conversion efficiency of solar cells based on its lead iodide form, this type of semiconductor is considered a promising candidate for next-generation display panels, radiation detectors, optical sensors, scintillators, etc. Thin films, single crystals, nanocrystals, and even 2D perovskites have been developed for these materials, and the realm of possibilities has not yet fully been explored.
Behind this huge success lie the unique structural and dynamic characteristics of halide perovskites, which have contributed to their versatile processing capability, remarkable optoelectronic performance, and rapid development. At the same time, these features inevitably pose some major challenges when it comes to commercializing this technology, such as lead toxicity, long-term stability, etc.
Numerous studies are being carried out daily to investigate methodologies to resolve these challenges. The aim of this Special Issue, thus, is to collect the latest progress and understanding of halide perovskite semiconductors. We are looking for studies that focus on the structure, dynamics. and performance of existing halide perovskites and their devices, as well as studies that explore new chemistries and phases of this materials family. Research articles, perspectives, and review papers in this intriguing field are welcome in this Special Issue.

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.
