Surface Functionalization on Nanostructured Materials for Multiple Application

Dear Colleagues,

Luminescent lanthanides nanomaterials have been applied widely in our daily life because of their leading role in material science and biomedical sciences. Efforts are ongoing to enhance luminescence efficiency by manipulating the structure of the nanostructured materials. Core-shell formation is an effective method to improve the solubility character of materials in aqueous solvents and enhance the quantum yield of luminescent materials. This Special Issue on “Surface Functionalization on Nanostructured Materials for Multiple Application” aims to assess the current applications of nanomaterials in drug delivery systems, biotechnology, optoelectronics, photonics, solid-state lasers, and biomedical-imaging-related fields. It represents an opportunity to promote mutual interaction, information dissemination, and exchange between researchers and hence to promote fruitful collaborations on advanced, state-of-the-art luminescence nanomaterials and recent developments, as well as nanomaterials to be used for electrochemical biosensing 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 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.
