Photonics/Optoelectronics Properties and Applications of Two-Dimensional Heterostructures
This special issue belongs to the section "Nanophotonics Materials and Devices".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Two-dimensional heterostructures have garnered significant attention in photonics and optoelectronics due to their tunable bandgap and potential applications in optoelectronics. Researchers can create advanced devices with enhanced functionalities and performance by combining different two-dimensional materials or integrating them with zero-dimensional quantum dots, one-dimensional nanowires, or three-dimensional bulk materials possessing complementary optical and electronic characteristics. These heterostructures exhibit fascinating optical and electronic properties, such as adjustable photoresponse spectrum, strong light-matter interactions, and efficient charge transport. Recently, there has been a growing emphasis on utilizing two-dimensional heterostructures in various electrical and optoelectronic applications, including photodetectors, photodiodes, solar cells, transistors, and photonic integrated circuits. Exploring the photonics/optoelectronics properties and applications of two-dimensional heterostructures shows great promise for advancing next-generation optoelectronic technologies with improved performance and functionality.

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. 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.
