Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Laser-assisted synthesis and processing techniques, such as pulsed laser ablation, laser-induced chemical vapor deposition, and laser-assisted photothermal reactions, offer unprecedented precision and control, enabling scientists to engineer nanomaterials with tailored properties and functionalities. By harnessing laser-induced techniques, researchers have achieved remarkable progress in controlling nanomaterials' size, shape, composition, and surface modifications, leading to innovative applications in various fields, including catalysis, photonics, sensing, and medicine. The interaction between laser beams and nanomaterials at the atomic and molecular levels opens doors to novel material compositions and previously unattainable structures.
We invite leading experts to offer a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art laser-assisted synthesis and processing of nanomaterials. Topics of interest include laser ablation, laser annealing, and laser-induced growth. This collection of articles aims to provide insights into the fundamental aspects and practical applications of laser-assisted synthesis, fostering collaboration and innovation in this rapidly evolving field.

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. 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 2900 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.
