Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metal oxides are explored as functional materials. In order to further improve the performance of metal oxide nanomaterials, doping/co-doping with impurities to alter the bulk structures of the host matrix has been a promising approach for many decades. In this context, this Special Issue is intended to be a collection of articles/reviews focusing on the facile synthesis and applications of doped metal oxides. The articles submitted must elegantly spotlight the facile preparation method, and the relevant material characterization related to the structural, morphological, and band gap response properties should be carefully dealt with to provide clear-cut insights into the doping effects. In particular, the co-doping process would be of more interest as it unfolds the doping mechanisms to a larger extent.

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. Materials 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 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.
