Progress in Photovoltaics offers a prestigious forum for reporting advances in this rapidly developing technology, aiming to reach all interested professionals, researchers and energy policy-makers.The key criterion is that all papers submitted should report substantial “progress” in photovoltaics.Papers are encouraged that report substantial “progress” such as gains in independently certified solar cell efficiency, eligible for a new entry in the journal's widely referenced Solar Cell Efficiency Tables.Examples of papers that will not be considered for publication are those that report development in materials without relation to data on cell performance, routine analysis, characterisation or modelling of cells or processing sequences, routine reports of system performance, improvements in electronic hardware design, or country programs, although invited papers may occasionally be solicited in these areas to capture accumulated “progress”.Systems papers will only be considered in exceptional cases, such as where new developments in system applications have produced substantial progress in energy yield or reliability.Prospective authors are encouraged to consider the degree to which their contributions report significant progress in the field and to consider other means of publication for those not meeting the high standard required by Progress in Photovoltaics.

光電技術(shù)的進(jìn)展為報告這一迅速發(fā)展的技術(shù)的進(jìn)展提供了一個享有聲望的論壇，旨在讓所有感興趣的專業(yè)人士、研究人員和能源政策制定者了解這一進(jìn)展。關(guān)鍵的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是所有提交的論文都應(yīng)該報告光伏技術(shù)的實(shí)質(zhì)性進(jìn)展。論文被鼓勵報告實(shí)質(zhì)性的“進(jìn)展”，比如在獨(dú)立認(rèn)證的太陽能電池效率方面取得的進(jìn)步，有資格進(jìn)入該期刊廣泛引用的太陽能電池效率表的新條目。例子的論文將不考慮出版是那些報告發(fā)展材料對電池性能的數(shù)據(jù)沒有關(guān)系,常規(guī)分析、描述或細(xì)胞或造型處理序列,常規(guī)報告系統(tǒng)性能,改善電子硬件設(shè)計(jì),或國家項(xiàng)目,雖然邀請可能偶爾征集論文在這些領(lǐng)域捕捉積累的“進(jìn)步”。系統(tǒng)論文只在例外情況下才會被考慮，例如系統(tǒng)應(yīng)用的新發(fā)展已在能源產(chǎn)量或可靠性方面取得重大進(jìn)展。鼓勵未來的作者考慮他們的貢獻(xiàn)在多大程度上報告了該領(lǐng)域的重大進(jìn)展，并考慮為那些沒有達(dá)到光電進(jìn)展所要求的高標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的人提供其他出版手段。
