Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue of Nanomaterials is to cover recent advances in nanostructures and nanomaterials for photonic and magnetic applications. Inorganic nanoparticles are usually characterized by unusual magnetic and optical properties, providing an avenue for promising practical applications. On the other hand, recent booming development in the field of low-dimensional materials has led to the revival of optics in photonic nanostructures and devices. These diverse applications of nanomaterials form the broad scope of modern nanoscience. Papers describing the synthesis, characterization and measurement techniques for photonic and magnetic nanomaterials, and theoretical DFT-based and multiscale simulations of their structure and various properties, as well as more fundamental research providing insight into the structural, electronic, optical and magnetic properties of nanomaterials, are especially welcome.
This Special Issue of Nanomaterials will focus on both theoretical (ab initio and multiscale simulations) and experimental techniques from diverse scientific disciplines that enable the investigation of photonic/optical and magnetic nanostructured materials. It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript (full papers, communications and reviews) to this Special Issue of 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.
