Materials for Optoelectronic Applications

Dear Colleagues,

The development of cutting-edge optoelectronic devices, defined as electrical-to-optical or optical-to-electrical transducer mediums, is rapidly changing science and industry. Many efforts to overcome limitations on the performance of such optoelectronic devices still begin with the development of advanced materials, as well as the finding of emerging materials.

This Special Issue, titled “Materials for Optoelectronic Applications”, addresses current progress and challenges with respect to materials in view of the development of the latest optoelectronic devices. For this Special Issue, 1) studies on the synthesis of new materials, ranging from small molecules to macromolecules to inorganic materials and their relevant electrical and optical characterizations, and 2) studies on novel structures with a variety of dimensionalities and their applications in relevant devices, such as photovoltaics, light-emitting diodes, and photonic crystal devices, are preferred, but the scope of this Special Issue is not limited to them.

I would like to invite you to submit full papers, reviews, or communications related to emerging materials for optoelectronics and their device applications to this Special Issue.

Dr. Seunggun Yu
Guest Editor

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. 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.
