Metal Oxide Core-Shell Nanoparticles

Dear Colleagues,

The core-shell structure has recently received considerable attention for its extensive application potential in various fields such as bio-medical, energy, and environment because of the combined function of the core and shell. In this inaugural Special Issue entitled “Metal Oxide Core-Shell Nanoparticles”, articles about designing metal core-shell nanoparticles, functionalizing via organic/inorganic compound, and fabricating complex-structured components of the shell layer will be gathered. We welcome contributions about purifying biomaterial, such as nucleic acid, protein, antibody, etc. However, the topics are not limited to bio-medical application and research about the core-shell nanoparticle for electronic devices, or environmental, energy and other applications included in our scope.  In addition, research on the properties of metal oxide core-shell nanoparticles is welcomed, including functional properties, stability, and any other properties for future applications.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
