From Macromolecules to Materials for Optoelectronic Devices

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue, devoted to the theme "From Macromolecules to Materials for Optoelectronic Devices" is to address current challenges and developments in the field of organic optoelectronics engaging the inherent technological benefits of organic functional elements. For this issue, we invite research contributions reporting advances on topics such as the design/synthetic methods, structural characterization (including nanostructure), study of relevant properties (including morphological, physical, optical, electric, etc.) of macromolecules (single molecules, oligomers, polymers and dendrimers) aiming at their integration, e.g., through thin film processing (as roll-to-roll, inkjet printing, patterning techniques), as functional materials (including self-assembled materials and hybrid organic/inorganic materials) in devices, e.g., light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, photodetectors, photovoltaic cells, transistors or others relevant devices suitable for flexible electronics.

Considering your outstanding contribution in this fascinating research filed, I would like to cordially invite you to submit a paper to this Special Issue.

Dr. Ana Charas
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-anonymized 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.
