Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The future of quantum is bright. The development of key quantum technologies like quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum sensing is strategically carried out in many countries. Success in achieving advanced quantum technologies will reshape our world in the future. Quantum electronics is the building block of quantum technologies, with extensive progress having been made in the field in recent decades.
The concept of quantum electronics is broad. It includes (but is not limited to) quantum photonic devices like quantum light sources and detectors, quantum electronic devices like spin-based and superconducting quantum devices, and instrumentations for quantum devices and systems. In this Special Issue, recent advances in silicon quantum electronics will be showcased. New materials integrated on silicon for quantum applications will also be covered.
In this Special Issue, both original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Silicon-integrated quantum light sources and detectors;
- Spin-based silicon electronic devices;
- Silicon-based optoelectronic devices;
- Silicon-integrated superconducting devices;
- Silicon-integrated quantum systems and demonstrations;
- Novel materials (i.e. quantum dots, carbon nanotube, 2D materials, etc.) integrated with silicon for quantum applications.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Electronics 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.
