Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to announce a forthcoming Special Issue in Nanomaterials focused on “Advanced Studies in Wide-Bandgap Nanomaterials and Devices”. This Special Issue will focus on the preparation technology, performance optimization, and application expansion of semiconductor materials, aiming to present readers with the latest trends and cutting-edge technologies in semiconductor materials.
This Special Issue provides a platform for researchers to share their innovative work on a broad spectrum of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Structural design and optimization for improving the performance of semiconductor materials and devices, including designing reasonable materials structures using DFT calculations and molecular dynamic simulations, and high-performance device structures using TCAD;
- New preparation and doping technologies for regulating the properties of semiconductor materials, including achieving the precise control of semiconductor materials at the atomic scale, and adding an appropriate amount of impurity atoms in order to change their band structure, carrier concentration, and other performance parameters;
- Surface treatment methods and technologies for improving the performance of semiconductor materials, including surface cleaning, etching, passivation, and other treatment methods;
- Performance characterization for experimentally investigating wide-bandgap semiconductor nanomaterials, including their electrical, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties;
- Diverse applications of wide-bandgap semiconductor nanomaterials, such as in energy converting, optoelectronic devices, power devices, and more.
This Special Issue of Nanomaterials comprehensively introduces the latest research progress and technological challenges in the preparation technology, performance optimization, and application expansion of semiconductor materials.
