hat started as a curiosity, exploring the photosensitizing property of a metal halide hybrid material in a liquid junction solar cell (or dyesensitized solar cell), quickly led to the emergence of perovskite photovoltaics and optoelectronics. Since the appearance of the first perovskite solar cell paper in the April 2009 issue of the Journal of American Chemical Society (ref 1), several other American Chemical Society (ACS) journals have published seminal and significant papers related to metal halide perovskites. In order to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of metal halide perovskite photovoltaics, we would like to draw the attention of readers to these major contributions in the field. Key developments in the field highlighted in our earlier Virtual Issues: • Organometal Halide Perovskites for Transformative Photovoltaics. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 3713−3714. DOI: 10.1021/ja501108n. Link: https://pubs.acs.org/ doi/10.1021/ja501108n. • Virtual Issue on Metal-Halide Perovskite NanocrystalsA Bright Future for Optoelectronics. Chem. Mater. 2017, 29, 8915−8917. DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemmater.7b04336. Link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ acs.chemmater.7b04336. • Lead-Free Perovskite Solar Cells. ACS Energy Lett. 2017, 2, 904−905. DOI: 10.1021/acsenergylett.7b00246. Link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ acsenergylett.7b00246. • A Promising Beginning for Perovskite Nanocrystals: A Nano Letters Virtual Issue. Nano Lett. 2018, 18, 2747− 2750. DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.8b01420. Link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.nanolett. 8b01420. • Hybrid Perovskites for Multijunction Tandem Solar Cells and Solar Fuels. A Virtual Issue. ACS Energy Lett. 2018, 3, 28−29. DOI: 10.1021/acsenergylett.7b01134. Link: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acsenergylett. 7b01134. In this virtual issue, we recognize a few selected papers from ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, ACS Energy Letters, ACS Nano, Chemistry of Materials, Journal of the American Chemical Society, The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, and Nano Letters (refs 2−26). Papers published in these ACS journals have significantly contributed to the advance of metal halide perovskites in photovoltaics and optoelectronics. More than 2500 metal halide perovskite papers published by these ACS journals have garnered nearly 120 000 citations over a short time period. The number of published papers in these journals during 2009−2019 and the citations that they carry are presented in Figure 1. The seminal papers compiled in this virtual issue are part of many high-impact innovations in perovskite photovoltaics and © XXXX American Chemical Society

related topics. They serve as building blocks to achieve new and important developments in the field. The collection of these articles (ordered chronologically) is meant to show the growth of the perovskite field since 2009 and the impact they carry in directing future research.
