Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, has garnered immense attention due to its extraordinary properties, including its high electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and flexibility. Recent advances in graphene synthesis have paved the way for scalable and cost-effective production methods, enabling its broader application across various industries. Innovations such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), liquid-phase exfoliation, and electrochemical approaches have improved the quality and yield of graphene, making it more accessible for commercial use. These advancements have also expanded graphene's applications, ranging from electronics and energy storage to biomedicine and environmental sensors.

This Special Issue explores the latest breakthroughs in graphene synthesis techniques and their transformative impact on technology, offering insights into future trends and potential challenges in the 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. C is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1600 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.
