Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Currently, society has come into a digital age built by various kinds of semiconductor materials. Tremendous inventions and developments of semiconductors have been achieved. High-performance devices depend on high-quality epitaxial growth of crystalline semiconductor materials. For example, (silica-based) integrated circuit, (III-nitride-based) LEDs and laser diodes (LDs) and (2D semiconductor-related) novel devices have been established with the progress in epitaxial growth and device processing technologies.
To further improve the performance of semiconductor devices, advanced epitaxial growth and device processing technologies need to be explored. Developments and progress in epitaxial growth and processing techniques are laborious and time consuming. Therefore, those technologies are fundamental, vital and urgently needed, which should be encouraged and paid more attention to.
We would like to invite researchers to contribute to this Special Issue. The potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Wide bandgap semiconductors;
- 2D semiconductor;
- Perovskite material;
- Silica-based material;
- Epitaxial growth;
- Semiconductor-related devices;
- Material growth on novel substrates;
- Material epitaxy and characterization.

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. Crystals 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 2600 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.
