Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to collect high-quality review papers in the research field of solid-state sciences, for which the Editorial Board members of the journal Solids and other researchers working in the field are invited to contribute.
In this Special Issue, entitled “Exclusive Review Papers in Solids”, we aim to collate outstanding contributions in the main fields covered by the journal:
- Synthesis of new solid materials
- Properties and potential applications of solids
- Chemical, structural, thermodynamic, electronic, magnetic, electrochemical, optical and "coupled" (i.e., thermo-electrical, piezo-electrical) properties and processes in solids
- Spectroscopy of solids
- Bio-inspired and bio-derived materials
- Reactions in and on solids
- Modelling, simulation, and theory studies of solids
- Solid-state physics

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. Solids 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 1200 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.
