Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Optoelectronic devices, including light-emitting diodes, solar cells, photodetectors, and lasers, have been extensively explored for various applications in the fields of energy, communication, and healthcare. In recent years, amorphous and nanostructured materials (both inorganic and organic materials) have shown attractive chemical and physical properties and potential applications in optoelectronic devices. Various new materials, new nanostructures, new mechanisms, and new device designs have been found to achieve high-performance optoelectronic devices.
This Special Issue is open to original research or review articles that focus on amorphous and nanostructured materials and optoelectronic devices used in energy, lighting and display, photodetection, and other fields, including but not limited to:
- Synthesis and characterization of amorphous and nanostructured materials;
- Materials for light-emitting diodes and lasers;
- Materials for solar cells;
- Materials for photodetectors.
We welcome contributions within the above topics.
Prof. Dr. Kewei Liu

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. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
