Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, research into semiconductor memory films and devices has attracted considerable attention. In particular, with the wide application of mobile electronic devices, the demand for wearable electronic devices is increasing day by day. As the core component of the next generation of information storage materials, semiconductor films are developing towards being ultra-thin, low-power consumption, long life, flexible, and highly durability. By optimizing the composition and structure of the film, the thermal stability of the information memory can be improved, the power consumption in the cycle transformation process can be reduced, and the structural relaxation caused by bending can be decreased. This Special Issue welcomes original and innovative research on new information storage films and devices, and wearable flexible films and devices, and will provide a platform for academic exchanges between relevant researchers.
We look forward to receiving your contributions!
Prof. Dr. Yifeng Hu
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information

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. Coatings 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 2600 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.
