Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to collect high-quality review papers in all fields of plasma science. We encourage scholars from related fields to contribute review papers highlighting the latest developments in plasma science and its applications or invite relevant experts and colleagues instead. The publications included in the first volume, which we believe may be of interest to you, can be found at https://www.mdpi.com/journal/plasma/special_issues/17233V8704.
The scope of this collection includes but is not limited to the following:
- Atmospheric pressure plasma;
- Dusty plasma;
- Electron, ion, and plasma sources;
- Low-temperature plasma;
- Plasma diagnostics;
- Plasma dynamics;
- Plasma theory and modelling;
- Atomic and molecular processes in plasmas;
- Collision cross-sections;
- Fundamentals of low-temperature plasmas;
- Fundamentals of high-temperature plasmas;
- Plasma–surface interactions;
- Catalytic reactions with plasmas;
- Plasma source design and characterization;
- Modelling and numerical simulations of plasmas;
- Atmospheric/high-pressure plasmas;
- Plasmas in contact with surfaces;
- Plasmas in liquids/plasma–liquid interaction;
- Plasma processing of materials, including etching and deposition;
- Plasma-deposited protective and tribological coatings;
- Plasma-deposited coatings for optical, electronical, and other functionalities;
- Plasma application for nanotechnologies;
- Plasma application for biology, medicine, and agriculture;
- Plasma application for aerospace;
- Plasma application for energy;
- Plasma application for environmental issues and resource recovery.

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. Plasma is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
