Microscopy of nanomaterials

Dear Colleagues,

Because electron microscopy is a high-end technique to characterize nanomaterials, I believe that special attention must be taken in this field. Both high-resolution scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, as well as any microscopy technique (such as AFM, correlative microscopy, light microscopy, super resolution imaging, etc.), are indispensable techniques for characterising nanomaterials, either in the life science field or in the materials science field. The main objective of this Special Issue is to extend the knowledge and highlight the importance of microscopy techniques in developing and characterising various nanostructures such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and thin films, and their interactions with different materials. The domains in which microscopy techniques will be used are both in life and materials science with applications from biomedical devices, drug delivery systems, medical imaging to multiferoic materials, high-energy batteries, capacitors, superconductors, and aerospace components. The main point to keep in mind for this Special Issue of Nanomaterials is that it will attempt to cover the usage of microscopy techniques as the main tool to investigate recent advances in the synthesis, processing, and application of nanostructured materials.

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-anonymized 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.
