Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent studies on two-dimensional (2D) materials have revealed that such atomically thin materials have unique optical properties for potential application in next-generation photonics devices. Leveraging the novel properties of 2D materials, various photonic devices have been reported, including light sources, sensors, electro-optical devices, etc. In this context, the use of 2D materials for photonic devices has been a rapidly growing research field.
This Special Issue will compile recent developments in the field of photonic devices enabled by 2D materials. The articles presented in this Special Issue will cover various photonic devices enabled by 2D materials, ranging from new device concepts to practical device applications. The devices can be either fully based on 2D materials or based on traditional materials integrated with 2D materials.
In this regard, it is our pleasure, as guest editors, to invite you to submit manuscripts for the Special Issue entitled Photonic Devices Enabled by 2D Materials in the form of research papers or review articles.
Dr. Xingwang Zhang
Guest Editor
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.
