Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the rapid development of low-carbon energy demand, nuclear energy has drawn much attention in recent years, especially the inherent safety of advanced nuclear energy is focused on. Besides, the small and smart nuclear reactors for different aims, such as space nuclear reactors, mobile nuclear reactors, and so on are reported in many places. Generally speaking, the material research is the first step and essential part of the above investigation of kinds of advanced nuclear energy with the aim of extremely high temperature, inherent safety, smartness and mobile. There are also many researchers who are working in this area: promoting the nuclear energy application through materials updating and improvement.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the theory, design, fabrication, modeling, simulation, application and properties measurement of all types of nuclear fuels, especially for advanced nuclear energy in recent years.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
All aspects of nuclear materials for advanced nuclear energy, such as nuclear fission materials, nuclear fusion materials, materials used in different kinds of nuclear reactors, experimental research and numerical simulations, design and fabrication, production and properties evaluation, and so on.

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. Energies 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.
