Microelectronics and Optoelectronic Devices: From Fundamental Research to Advanced Applications, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

In recent decades, microelectronics and optoelectronics have received widespread attention from academics and industries and have undergone rapid development in terms of both fundamental research and advanced applications, including high-speed information processing in electronics, sensing, display, lighting, energy harvesting, and communication. Microelectronics and optoelectronics devices are the key to future high-tech life, and their fundamental research and advanced applications are closely related. It is vital to enhance basic research in microelectronics and optoelectronics to guide the mass production of applications of integrated devices.

Building on the success of the first edition of this Special Issue, the second edition aims to continue to explore the latest advancements in microelectronic and optoelectronic devices. This volume will highlight new breakthroughs, emerging technologies, and advanced applications while maintaining a strong focus on the fundamental research that drives innovation in this field. We invite the submission of research papers, communications, and review articles on the following key topics:

• Microelectronic and optoelectronic devices to reveal the underlying physics or mechanisms, as well as cutting-edge applications to present efficient electronic information processing;
• This research topic spans a broad variety of subjects in microelectronic and optoelectronic devices, including transistors, diodes, memristors, and their integrated devices for microelectronics, as well as photodetectors, light-emitting diodes, lasers, and solar cells for optoelectronics.

This second volume aims to further advance our understanding of microelectronics and optoelectronics and their applications while continuing to highlight the importance of bridging fundamental research with practical, real-world solutions. We look forward to receiving your submissions that will contribute to the ongoing growth of these transformative technologies.

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. Micromachines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2100 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.
