Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am honored to serve as the Guest Editor for this Special Issue of Nanomaterials, entitled “Advanced Thermoelectric Nanomaterials, Devices, and Applications”. This Special Issue will highlight cutting-edge advancements in thermoelectric research—from innovative material synthesis and characterization to novel device architectures and real-world implementations.
Thermoelectricity has seen renewed interest since the classical discovery of the Seebeck effect, especially with the rapid progress in nanostructuring techniques, AI-assisted material discovery, and system integration. We aim to provide a comprehensive platform for showcasing the most recent breakthroughs that can contribute to next-generation solutions for energy harvesting and thermal management.
We warmly invite you to submit your original research articles, short communications, and review papers covering topics such as the following:
- Novel Thermoelectric Materials: Design, synthesis, and characterization of high-performance nanomaterials.
- Device Innovations: New approaches to fabrication, interface engineering, and system-level integration.
- Advanced Modeling and Mechanistic Studies: Theoretical, computational, or data-driven insights into thermoelectric mechanisms.
- Real-World Applications: Demonstrations of prototype devices, scalability, and sustainability analyses.
All submissions will undergo rigorous peer review to ensure the highest academic standards. We look forward to your contributions, which will help shape the future of thermoelectric research and applications.
Dr. Tsung-Shine Ko
Guest Editor
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.
