Special Issue Information

Dear colleagues,

In recent years, two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, or carbonitrides, widely known as MXenes, have drawn the attention of the scientific community due to their diverse compositions and structures and fascinating properties, such as excellent electrical conductivity, high water dispersibility, and suitability for altering their surface chemistry. Such appealing properties make MXenes suitable for use in a myriad of applications, including electronics, optoelectronics, energy storage, catalysis, medicine, and chemical and biomolecular detection, among others. Furthermore, MXenes have been widely explored for novel or improved functional properties, through the production of composites and heterostructures with other nanomaterials. This Special Issue will cover all topics related to recent advances in the synthesis/fabrication of MXenes and their nanocomposites/heterostructures, elucidation of their properties, and their potential applications. Full papers, communications, and reviews on experimental, theoretical, or computational research covering aspects of the abovementioned topics are highly 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 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.
