Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanotechnology has emerged as the research methodology that deals with the study of the change in the properties of the material at the nanoscale. It involves the combinational study of various sciences such as quantum physics, semiconductor physics, material fabrication, etc. at the nanoscale level. Materials formed using the principles and methods of nanotechnology, whose properties lie between that of macroscopic solids and atomic systems, are known as nanomaterials.
The aim of this SI is to learn about the fundamentals of nanomaterials, and surface modification, as well as their numerous applications in fields such as drug delivery, biomedical implants, gas sensors, renewable energy harvesting and storage, and so on. The intention is also to create nanocomposites, which have a wide range of applications and can potentially alter the world. There is much to be achieved in the realm of nanomaterials and systems to effectively solve the day-to-day challenges that nanoscience as a new technology has brought about.

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.
