Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is well known that most electron-vacuum devices have given way to solid-state devices because of the disadvantages of bulky size, high cost, difficulty in integration, etc. However, in some working environments, only electron-vacuum devices can meet the requirements such as high frequency and large power. It has become a promising research field to design novel vacuum electronic devices or integrated optoelectronic devices combined with semiconductor/microfabrication technologies which possess the respective advantages of traditional electron-vacuum devices and solid-state devices. The aim of the Special Issue on “Integrated Optoelectronics and Micro-/Nano-Vacuum Electronics: Future Prospects and Applications” is to invite researchers to share their research achievements about the topics below, and to motivate the design, optimization, and application of novel electron-vacuum devices and integrated optoelectronic devices.
- Vacuum nanoelectronics;
- Integrated optoelectronic devices;
- On-chip vacuum electron devices;
- Micro-vacuum sensors and detectors;
- Device and system integration;
- Vacuum devices.
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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
