Global trends and hot topics in clinical applications of perovskite materials:a bibliometric analysis

In recent years,perovskite has received increasing attention in the medical field.However,there has been a lack of related bibliometric analysis in this research field.This study aims to analyse the research status and hot topics of perovskite in the medical field from a bibliometric perspective and explore the research direction of perovskite.This study collected 1852 records of perovskite research in the medical field from 1983 to 2022 in the Web of Science(WOS)database.The country,institution,journal,cited references,and keywords were analysed using CiteSpace,VOS viewer,and Bibliometrix software.The number of articles related to perovskite research in the medical field has been increasing every year.China and USA have published the most papers and are the main forces in this research field.The University of London Imperial College of Science,Technology,and Medicine is the most active institution and has contributed the most publications.ACS Applied Materials&Interfaces is the most prolific journal in this field.“Medical electronic devices”,“X-rays”,and“piezoelectric materials”are the most researched directions of perovskite in the medical field.“Performance”,“perovskite”,and“solar cells”are the most frequently used keywords in this field.Advanced Materials is the most relevant and academically influential journal for perovskite research.Halide perovskites have been a hot topic in this field in recent years and will be a future research trend.X-ray,electronic medical equipment,and medical stents are the main research directions.
