Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The separation of a single layer of carbon atoms from graphite, known as graphene, which was achieved for the first time in 2004, was followed by the discovery and study of various two-dimensional (2D) materials. The outstanding electrical, mechanical, optical, and chemical properties of 2D materials owing to their quantum confinement has opened a new exciting chapter in theoretical and experimental studies, which although it is yet in its infancy, resulted in utilizing 2D materials for novel electronics, optoelectronics, bioelectronics, sensing, energy storage, healthcare, and wearable devices applications. The significant effort of a large scientific community interested in 2D materials has brought the first member of the 2D materials family—graphene—to large-scale industrial production in less than 20 years after the first report of its successful separation and primary characterization. Further theoretical and experimental research and study is required for the large-area growth and characterization of other 2D materials as well as for the development of 2D material-based functional devices.
The focus of this Special Issue is the fundamental study and novel applications of 2D materials that may pave the path to the next generation of electronics, optoelectronics, and sensors, as well as the recent advances in the growth and production of 2D materials.
Scope:
- Large-area growth and characterization of 2D materials
- Novel 2D material-based electronics, optoelectronics, sensors, wearables, super capacitors, and energy storage devices
- Theoretical and fundamental study of 2D materials

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. 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 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.
