Dear Colleagues,

There is a continuous quest in novel semiconductors and nanomaterials to address the current challenges in energy efficient, high-power, and high-frequency devices. The integration of new semiconductor materials into conventional devices and circuits offers unique advantages, which often lead to significant breakthroughs.  The objective of this Special Issue of Materials is to report the novel electronics concepts and device designs based on new semiconductors and nanomaterials. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Semiconductor materials for renewable energy;
• Device designs for energy efficient electronics;
• New wide-bandgap semiconductors for high power;
• Integration of nanomaterials for electronics and photonics;
• New device concepts for energy harvesting;
• Nanoscale semiconductor field effect transistors;
• Semiconductor and nanomaterials for THz electronics;
• Diamond-based electronics;
• Ga₂O₃ and GaN devices for high-power and high-frequency applications;
• Semiconducting Telluride and Selenide films for thermoelectric applications;
• Metal–organic frameworks as semiconductors.

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. Materials 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 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.
