Multilayer and Hybrid Two-Dimensional Materials

Dear Colleagues,

The spectacular success of graphene has triggered an intensive search for other atomically thick two-dimensional (2D) materials. The extraordinary properties of these 2D materials together with capabilities of easy functionalization make them important players in several rapidly growing areas of science and technology that promise to design and build the next generation of nanoelectronic, spintronic, optoelectronic, thermal, energy-storage, mechanical, chemical, and sensing devices. Furthermore, combining 2D crystals into multilayer or hybrid assemblies can result in advanced, versatile, and fully functional materials with perfectly tailored and tuned properties.

The aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Multilayer and Hybrid Two-Dimensional Materials”, it to present the recent state-of-the-art research on the properties, synthesis, characterization, and application of 2D materials in their multilayer forms.

It is my pleasure to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue. Full experimental and theoretical research papers, communications, and review articles are all welcome.

Dr. Mariusz Krawiec

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
