Does "Semiconductors known as perovskites" mean...?

Does "Semiconductors known as perovskites" mean "perovskites are famous semiconductors"?

Context:

Renewable revolution

Semiconductors known as perovskites convert light energy into electricity. They are cheap to build and have already shown conversion rates of more than 15% (a leap from 4% when the feat was first reported in 2009). Expect to see still-higher efficiencies this year, perhaps reaching 20% — the same as the lower end of existing commercial silicon-based photo-voltaics. A team at the University of Oxford, UK, also hopes to make lead-free perovskites.
