About this Research Topic
Hybrid perovskites have aroused great attention in the photovoltaic community since the debut in 2009. Due to the superb optoelectronic properties such as tunable bandgap, long carrier diffusion length, and high carrier mobility, hybrid perovskites have been recognized as a wonder material for optoelectronic applications. However, most of the remarkable performances are derived from multicrystalline films. The intrinsic properties based on the single crystals are currently under-explored, making their elucidation a vital issue.
This Research Topic will focus on the design, growth, intrinsic properties of perovskite crystals and further their photoelectric applications in optoelectronic devices, including photodetectors, X-ray detectors, X-ray scintillation, gamma-ray detector, solar cells, and so on. The goal of this collection is to highlight recent developments in this field and provide a platform for researchers with interests in hybrid perovskite single crystals to become aware of recent advances.
We encourage researchers to submit their latest Original Research articles, Perspectives, or Reviews on themes that include, but are not limited to:
• Crystal growth of hybrid perovskites, including the advanced strategies, techniques, and mechanisms of crystal growth.
• Crystal design of new hybrid perovskites, including the organic-inorganic perovskites and inorganic perovskites.
• Intrinsic properties of perovskite crystals, such as the photoelectric properties, stability and thermal properties, structure phase transition, ferroelectricity, and so on.
• Stability or degradation mechanisms of perovskites.
• The strategies used to improve the intrinsic properties of the perovskite crystals.
• Photoelectric applications in optoelectronic devices, including photodetectors, X-ray detectors, X-ray scintillation, gamma-ray detector, solar cells, and so on.
