Emerging Trends in Electronic Materials and Functional Nanostructures

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is organized in cooperation with AICMSN2026—the 2nd Annual International Conference on Materials Science and Nanoscience, which will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, during April 13-15, 2026. Submissions from conference participants are welcomed, along with contributions from the broader scientific community.

This Special Issue focuses on sustainable advancements in materials science and functional nanotechnology for electronic applications. It highlights innovative research on the design, synthesis, and application of materials and nanomaterials that support clean energy, environmental protection, resource efficiency, and green engineering. Topics include sustainable nanomaterials, eco-friendly fabrication methods, electronic materials for energy conversion and storage, nanotechnology for environmental remediation, biodegradable and recyclable materials, and computational approaches for sustainable materials design.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronic Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1200 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.
