Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, significant advancements have been made in the field of advanced laser manufacturing, particularly concerning the preparation of functional nanostructures and the synthesis of nanomaterials. Laser technology is now widely acknowledged for its capacity to precisely alter material morphology, composition, and phase structure at the nanoscale, facilitating innovative manufacturing techniques that improve material functionality. Despite these advancements, challenges remain in achieving consistency, scalability, and a deeper understanding of laser–material interactions.
This Special Issue, "Advanced Laser Manufacturing: Preparation of Functional Nanostructures and Synthesis of Nanomaterials", aims to summarize the latest research findings and methods in the realm of laser-promoted nanoscale material manufacturing. We seek to provide a platform to share advanced laser nano-processing technologies and the impact of materials at the nanoscale in material preparation, molding, and synthesis processes. Key areas of focus include, but are not limited to, laser super-resolution etching, novel methods for the laser manufacturing of nanostructures, the synthesis of laser nanomaterials, surface modification, and new functional applications of nanostructures.
We encourage researchers to submit original research, comments, and brief exchanges that provide new insights into the interaction between lasers and materials, nanoscale laser processing, and the development of new laser preparation technologies for nanomaterials.

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.
