Polymers for Electronic Device Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue titled "Polymers for Electronic Device Applications" seeks to illuminate the critical role that conductive polymers play in the advancement of electronic technologies. These materials are distinguished by their unique electrical conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and ease of processing, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. Central to this Special Issue is the phenomenon of resistive switching, which enables the alteration of resistance in polymer-based materials through electrical stimuli. This mechanism is pivotal for the development of non-volatile memory devices, allowing for efficient data storage and retrieval. Beyond memory applications, conductive polymers are also being explored for their potential in sensors, energy storage systems, and flexible electronics, where their adaptability and performance can lead to innovative solutions. Contributions to this Special Issue will encompass fundamental research, material design, and practical applications, addressing challenges such as stability, scalability, and device integration. By compiling diverse perspectives and findings, this Special Issue aims to inspire further exploration and development in the field of polymer electronics.

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Polymers 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 2700 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.
