Advanced Biomaterials Design and Sensing Application

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, nanoparticles have received increasing attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties. Currently, some of the most common nanoparticles are metal oxide, metal, or polymeric ones. Nanostructured materials and nanoparticles available applications include wireless sensors, wide bandgap semiconductor, superconductors, medicine, magnetic material, metallic thin films, photovoltaic optics and photonics materials, flexible biomaterials, bioactive materials, polymeric and hybrid materials, and healthcare monitors, to name just few. These applications have already changed our lives to the point that intelligent design of new nanostructured materials is the key to engineering new products and creating new technologies. This Special Issue of Materials aims to cover recent advances in the synthesis, design, processing, and application of nanoparticles and nanomaterials. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent applications of biosensing, metamaterials, and biomaterials. We welcome the submission of full papers, communications, and reviews. Potential topics include but are not limited to:

  • Nanomaterials in medicine (biomedical devices, drug delivery, imaging, etc.);
  • Nanomaterial-based sensing technologies (photocatalysis, membranes, adsorption, etc.);
  • Magnetic nanomaterials and quantum materials;
  • Microwave, millimeter wave and terahertz in bio-sensing applications;
  • Polymer composite materials for biomedical applications;
  • Ultrahigh performance solid-state electronics and advanced electronics.

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.

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.
