Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, boasting exceptional attributes such as high carrier mobility, adjustable bandgaps, large specific surface areas, and remarkable scalability, exhibit tremendous application prospects across a multitude of domains, including electronics, optoelectronics, microelectronics, thermoelectrics, catalysis, and energy. Consequently, research on 2D semiconductors has risen to prominence as a leading and dynamic focal point.

The aim of this Special Issue is to publish original research and review articles that delve into the latest advancements and emerging trends in the computational, theoretical, and experimental exploration of 2D semiconductors. The scope includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  1. The growth mechanisms and evolutionary trajectories of novel 2D semiconductors;
  2. The design of 2D semiconductors tailored for applications in electronic, optoelectronic, microelectronic, and thermoelectric materials and devices, as well as in energy conversion, energy storage, catalysis, environmental protection, and beyond;
  3. The elucidation of novel physical and chemical phenomena observed in 2D semiconductors and materials derived therefrom;
  4. The modulation of the physical and chemical properties of 2D semiconductors through the manipulation of defects, strain, and external electric fields.

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.
