Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transition-metal elements play important roles in many kinds of three-dimensional and two-dimensional materials such as transition-metal oxides (TMO), transition-metal chalcogenides (TMC), and MXenes (MX). They show diverse characteristics, from Mott-insulators, semiconductors, normal metals, magnetic materials, half-metals, semi-metals, multiferroics, thermoelectrics, topological materials, to superconductors. The underline mechanisms for this wide spectrum include strong correlation, spin–orbit interaction, metal–insulator transitions, charge-orbital ordering, magnetism, and interplays between charge, orbital, spin, and lattice structure degree of freedom. Low-dimensional transition-metal-based materials such as 2D-oxides, TMC, MX, thin films, heterostructures, and surface systems show even wider novel behaviors with high potential applications in future industry. This Special Issue is dedicated to achieve a better understanding regarding the novel properties of these transition-metal-based materials in all dimensions.

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.
