Cutting‐Edge Nanomaterials for Electronics in Asia: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Recent nanomaterials innovation in electronics has been based on the synthesis/fabrication of new nanomaterials, properties with the size and shape, and nano-scale characterization. The enormous variety of nanomaterials for electronic device systems have progressed immensely, and their range of properties and applications appears to be almost endless. Recent printing technologies offer direct deposition of conductive nanomaterials on flexible substrates for cost-effective/large scale fabrication. The printed electronics provide widespread flexible electronics and, more recently, stretchable/soft electronics such as sensors, electronic displays, solar cells, thin-film transistors, and supercapacitors. The studies of nanomaterials in electronics are at the forefront of scientific and industrial applications.  

This Special Issue is going to be focused on “Cutting‐Edge Nanomaterials for Electronics in Asia: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications”. Advanced nanomaterials for electronics are especially welcome, including 0D nanomaterials (nanoparticles, nanodots, quantum dots), 1D nanomaterials (nanotube, nanofibers, nanowires), 2D nanomaterials (graphene, other 2D layered nanomaterials), organic conducting polymers, liquid metals, and these composite nanomaterials. Rapidly growing applications are also welcome, such as printed/flexible/stretchable electronics, energy storage, optoelectronics, power electronics, bioelectronics, and sensors for medical and healthcare.

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.
