Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanopatterning with lithography has attracted significant research interest due to their potential for use in biosensors, implantable medical devices, anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint films, solar cells, nano and microfluidic channels, and some functional devices. The advantages of this simple process include low cost, high replication fidelity, and relatively high throughput and productivity. Papers in this Special Issue on “Lithography: Materials, Processes and Applications” will introduce and review recent advances in the field of the nanopatterning with lithography, from the fabrication processes and techniques to manufactured functional devices and their novel applications.

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.
