Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in semiconductor materials for potential device applications. Materials publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterization and applications of optoelectronic materials.
This issue will bring together outstanding papers reporting new and original work in the following areas: (1) applications of semiconductor physics and technology to electronics and optoelectronics, including theory and device design with appropriate experimental backup; (2) optical, electrical, morphological characterization techniques and parameter extraction with experimental application to real devices; (3) device fabrication and synthesis, including device-related new materials growth, electro-optical characterization and performance evaluation; (4) the physics and modeling of submicron and nanoscale microelectronic and optoelectronic devices, including processing, measurement, and performance evaluation; (5) modeling and simulation of solid-state devices and processes with appropriate experimental backup; (6) nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices for various applications, including photovoltaics and sensing.
Based on the above-mentioned areas, this Special Issue will cover fundamental and applied experimental and theoretical studies of the properties of organic, non-organic and oxide semiconductors, their interfaces and devices, including but not limited to a variety of topics such as:
- Fundamental properties;
- Materials and nanostructures;
- Devices and applications;
- Fabrication and processing;
- New analytical techniques;
- Simulation;
- Emerging fields;
- Materials and devices for quantum technologies;
- Hybrid structures and devices;
- Semiconductors for energy;
- Flexible electronics;
- Developments in optoelectronic devices for photonics;
- UV-LEDs applications;
- The reliability of optoelectronic devices;
- Developments in new optical materials;
- Developments in new optical characterization methods and techniques.

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.
