Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Power converters are vital components in modern electrical systems, serving as the bridge between energy sources and loads to ensure efficient and reliable power delivery. As the demand for sustainable and high-performance energy solutions grows, innovative technologies in power converters are emerging as critical enablers of advanced electrical infrastructures. Recent developments in semiconductor materials, novel converter topologies, and digital control strategies are reshaping the landscape of power electronics, leading to systems that are more efficient, robust, and adaptable to dynamic energy environments.

This Special Issue aims to explore the transformative impact of cutting-edge technologies on power converters. It seeks to showcase pioneering research, innovative methodologies, and practical applications that address the challenges of high efficiency, reduced losses, and improved integration with renewable energy sources. We invite contributions from researchers, engineers, and industry professionals dedicated to advancing the state-of-the-art in power conversion technology. A list of possible topics includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  • Advanced semiconductor materials and devices for improved converter performance;
  • Novel converter topologies and circuit design techniques;
  • Digital control methods and intelligent algorithms in power electronics;
  • Integration of power converters with renewable energy systems and smart grids;
  • Thermal management, reliability, and efficiency optimization in power conversion;
  • Applications in electric vehicles, industrial drives, and energy storage systems.

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. Electronics 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.
