Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Single-entity electrochemistry has attracted a lot of interest in the last decade because of the high sensibility and fast response inherent to this nanoelectrochemical technique. The ability to detect and analyze different types of single nanoparticles such as biological nano-objects and molecules in an easy-to-handle way make nanoelectrochemistry an ideal tool for fundamental and applied science in various research fields. In order to reach the highest possible precision in electrochemical analysis of single particles, many efforts have been devoted to improving measuring devices and materials related to microelectrode fabrication and development of highly sensitive scanning electrochemical microscopy instruments.
This Special Issue of Applied Sciences, “Nanoelectrochemistry for Single Particle Detection”, aims to cover recent advances, original works, and new trends in single-particle electrochemistry. The topics are not limited strictly to nanoelectrochemistry but are assumed to address related fields such as the development of new materials and nanotechnologies for improving single-entity electroanalytical measurements. The authors are invited to submit their contribution covering experimental and/or theoretical aspects relevant to this Special Issue as research articles, reviews, communications, and concept papers before the end of June 2021.
I look forward to reading your scientific contributions soon.
Dr. Estelle Lebègue
Guest Editor
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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
