Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Piezoelectric actuators have been commercialized in various areas, such as mobile and consumer electronics, information technology, robotics and precise engineering, bio-, medical engineering, and ecological and energy engineering. However, piezoelectric actuators and their actuation performance play a pivotal role in piezoelectric ceramic and its fabrication processes. Recently, new piezoelectric ceramics including lead-free piezoelectric materials and their composite materials have been developed to meet the requirements of consumer electronic products. In this perspective, we are delighted to announce a new Special Issue on “Piezoelectric Actuators”, which aims to point out major developments and emerging evolution in piezoelectric ceramics, working mechanism designs and new actuators, piezoelectric energy harvesting, piezoelectric transformer and converters, piezoelectric material based magnetoelectric effect and sensors, their industrial applications, etc.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Actuators is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
