Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the first (re)discovery of graphene by Geim and Novoselov. In recent decades, considerable progress has been made in developing a deeper understanding of its properties and towards its deployment in real-world electromagnetic applications, covering frequencies from microwaves to the visible spectrum. In parallel, the success of graphene has generated immense research interest in a broad range of two-dimensional, ultrathin, and composite/structured materials.
This Special Issue seeks to conduct a holistic exploration of the physics, engineering principles, and technologies associated with disruptive 2D materials for advancing electromagnetic components, devices, and microsystems. These technologies cover both guided-wave and free-space light–matter interactions, extend across a wide frequency range (from microwaves and mmWaves to THz and optical), and employ graphene and/or emerging 2D materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides, MXenes, black phosphorus, etc. Accordingly, this Special Issue will showcase research papers, communications, and review articles that focus on the analysis, the design, and proof-of-concept demonstrations of future micro/nano devices, metasurfaces, and system architectures that integrate established technologies with graphene and 2D materials.
We look forward to receiving your submissions.

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.
