Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nanotechnology and machine learning are amazing technologies with a very high innovation impact on multiple domains such as healthcare, communication, agriculture, food, materials, and energy, to cite a few. Advances from both technologies are already driving us towards a new era of achievements and opportunities. In the future, we imagine an era of the disruptive cross-fertilization of nanotechnology and machine learning.

This Special Issue was launched to provide an opportunity for researchers working on the cross-fertilization of nanotechnology and machine learning to highlight their most recent exciting developments and solutions to the current bottlenecks and disruptive breakthroughs to promote practical and innovative applications and shed light upon new developments. This can happen at multiple levels; for example, from the (electromagnetic, electronic, chemical, and multiphysical) design of nanodevices and nanomaterials to the analysis of data collected by advanced nanodevices/nanomaterials-based setups. Sensing, spectroscopy, imaging, and communication are clearly application domains where this disruptive technology cross-fertilization can have a profound, game-changing impact. 

Potential topics for this Special Issue include (but are not limited to):

  • Machine learning for nanodevices and nanomaterials design;
  • Machine learning for data analysis (nanodevices/nanomaterials-based setups);
  • Nanomaterials;
  • Metamaterials;
  • Metasurfaces;
  • Nanostructure-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS);
  • Nanostructure-based surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA);
  • Metalenses;
  • Nanodevices;
  • Sensing, spectroscopy, imaging, and communication.

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.
