Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the use of microdevices has become more crucial for various applications because of their low-power consumption, high-power density, and fast operation speed. Although many microfabrication and nanomaterial synthesis methods have been developed, most include complex and/or expensive processes, which limits the mass production of microdevices. Therefore, the development of advanced manufacturing technologies is required to allow facile, cost-effective, and reliable fabrication of microdevices such as sensors and actuators.
This Special Issue of Processes on “Micro/Nano Manufacturing Processes for Green Applications” aims to present a collection of high-quality research studies dealing with advanced micro/nano technologies to fabricate micro/nanoscale devices for green and environmental applications such as desalination, photovoltaic, fuel cell, energy conversion, thermal management, biofiltration, and solar systems.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
