Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 13th International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems (NEMS) will be held 22–26 April, 2018, at the Grand Hyatt, Singapore. NEMS is a premier conference series sponsored by the IEEE Nanotechnology Council, focusing on the promotion of advanced research areas related to MEMS, nanotechnology, and molecular technology. Prior conferences were held in Los Angeles (USA, 2017), Matsushima Bay and Sendai (Japan, 2016), Xian (China, 2015), Hawaii (USA, 2014), Suzhou (China, 2013), Kyoto (Japan, 2012), Kaohsiung (Taiwan, 2011), Xiamen (China, 2010), Shenzhen (China, 2009), Hainan Island (China, 2008), Bangkok (Thailand, 2007), and Zhuhai (China, 2006). The IEEE-NEMS Conference typically attracts over 700 attendees, with participants from more than 20 countries and regions worldwide.
Micromachines is the leading journal in the MEMS and NENS fields. We want to consolidate original research papers and comprehensive review articles in this Special Issue. We welcome manuscripts on the following topics:
- Micro/Nanomachines
- Optical MEMS and Nanophotonics
- RF MEMS, Resonators and Oscillators
- Ultrasound MEMS (pMUT and cMUT)
- Energy Harvesting Technology
- BioMEMS and Biomedical Devices
- Neuroprosthetics and Implanted Devices
- Micro/Nanofluidics
- Soft materials and robotics
- Chemical Sensors/Gas Sensors/Sensors for environmental Monitoring
- Sensor Network/IoT

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
