Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Power semiconductor devices have contributed to the rise of information technology as they can be widely used in central processing units, graphic accelerators, digital sound processing, etc. There is a significant demand for power devices that are capable of handling operating voltages from the grid or from another high-voltage supply. Many power semiconductor devices have been proposed over past decades, with the majority of technological development being focused on silicon materials. Wide-gap semiconductors are currently represented by SiCs, and GaN and other compound semiconductor materials have gained increasing attention in regard to power electric application due to their excellent electrical performance. Although power semiconductor devices based on silicon and other semiconductor materials have seen great development, there are still many problems to be solved in the field of power electronics.
This Special Issue highlights the advances in the design, processing, reliability, and application of power semiconductor devices based on silicon or other semiconductor 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.
