Selected Papers from the International Electron Devices & Materials Symposium 2021 (IEDMS 2021)
This special issue belongs to the section “Microelectronics“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
IEDMS 2021 is the 26th International Electron Devices and Materials Symposium sponsored by The Electronics Devices and Materials Association and National Cheng Kung University. This conference offers an annual platform for international scientists, engineers, and researchers to present the latest research results, ideas, developments, and applications in electron devices and materials. IEDMS 2021 will be hosted by National Cheng Kung University from 18 to 19 November 2021 in Tainan City, Taiwan. The themes of this conference cover materials and devices including compound semiconductors, novel materials, nano and 2D materials, Si-based processes, photonics, and sensors. Original high-quality papers related to these themes are welcomed, including theories, design, modeling, simulation, reliability, fabrication, integration, and applications in electronic relative fields. All accepted abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings. Selected papers will be recommended to related SCI journals for a Special Issue publication, such as Electronics. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include but are not limited to:
- Compound semiconductor materials and devices;
- Novel materials including 2D, nanotubes, nanosheet-based materials, and related applications;
- Si-based processing, devices, and integration, including Si, SiC, SiGe, Ge-based technology;
- Photonic materials/devices;
- Novel device concepts and applications such as flexible electronics;
- Integrated solid state sensors for physical, chemical, and biomedical detection;
- Device simulation and modeling.

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-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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
