Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
At present, Moore's Law is encountering the development bottleneck of both technology and cost, and the traditional silicon-based electronic technology is approaching the development limit. With its advantages of small size, fast speed, low power consumption and simple process, carbon-based electronics/spintronics have become one of the most promising technologies with great development potential, and roused great research enthusiasm in both academic and industrial societies. Carbon-based electronic/spintronic devices refer to the electronic/spintronic devices poroduced from carbon materials include but not limited to diamond, graphene carbon nanotubes, fullerene, etc. They have various application values such as ultra-wide band forbidden devices; field transmitters, field effect transistors, memory units and quantum sensors. Carbon-based chips can be flexible and transparent, and have broad application prospects in display, medical and health monitoring, radiation resistance, as well as near-infrared imaging. It is no doubt that carbon based electronic/spintronic devices will play a indispensable role in the post-Moore era and deeply involved in the coming wave of intelligence, internet of things and big data.
The present Special Issue of Micromachines aims at reviewing the current state-of-the-art and presenting perspectives of further development. Contributions related to the technologies, design and fabrication processes, characterization, and, eventually, applications are welcome.

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 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.
