Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Low-dimensional nanomaterials, including 0D nanoparticles, 1D nanotubes, and 2D nanosheets, exhibit fascinating physical and chemical properties that differ significantly from their 3D bulk counterparts. This makes them a cornerstone of modern nanoscience and a critical area of research, with an enhanced understanding of their photophysical and electronic properties required in order to advance fundamental nanoscience and promote future innovations in optoelectronics and electronics.
This Special Issue aims to showcase experimental and theoretical advances in the chemistry and physics of low-dimensional materials. We welcome original research and comprehensive review articles that explore the photophysical and electronic properties of these materials, with a focus on the following topics:
- Luminescent and nonlinear optical materials;
- Electronic properties and states;
- Optoelectronic and electronic device fabrication;
- Advanced characterization techniques.
We are particularly interested in submissions that address a diverse range of materials, including the following:
- Inorganic nanomaterials (e.g., metals, metal oxides, metal sulfides);
- Organic nanomaterials (e.g., covalent organic frameworks, polymers, supramolecular assemblies);
- Inorganic-organic hybrid materials (e.g., coordination polymers, metal-organic frameworks, nanocomposites).
We invite you to contribute novel research to this Special Issue and share your work with the global scientific community.
We look forward to your valuable contributions.

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.
