Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are proud to announce a Special Issue of Materials (MPDI Editorial; IF: 2.651) devoted to The 2nd International Symposium on Nanoparticles, Nanomaterials, and Applications (2nd ISN2A) (www.isn2a2016.com). The conference will be held in Costa de Caparica, Portugal, from 18–21 January, 2016. This Special Issue selects excellent papers from oral, shotgun, and posters’ participations, and covers a very broad scope. A wide range of fields, including nanomaterials, nanoparticles and applications, optical systems, biomedical applications, energy storage, etc., will be covered.

We invite investigators to contribute original research articles, as well as review articles, to this Special Issue.
