Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development trend of microelectronics technology, the optimization of microsystems and their different electronic components in recent years has moved towards small form factors, high bandwidths, high frequencies, high performance, high reliability, low power consumption, and low cost. Packaging materials and bonding technologies are especially vital parts of this trend since they have essential roles in back-end processes. The further these processes develop, the more advanced packaging materials and bonding technologies are needed. To meet the rising need for advanced systems development and to address the emerging challenges and issues facing the assembly and packaging of microelectronics, various packaging materials and technologies (2D, 2.5D, 3D, wafer-level packaging, and other advanced packaging technologies) are being developed across industry and academia. The good news is that the demand around these is rapidly increasing.

This Special Issue addresses research on microelectronics assembly and packaging, including bonding technologies (glass frit bonding, eutectic bonding, transient liquid-phase diffusion bonding, adhesive bonding, fusion bonding, thermocompression bonding, hybrid bonding), 2D/2.5D/3D integration and packaging, heterogeneous integration, and chiplet interconnections. Additionally, we welcome articles and reviews on electronic packaging materials such as metals, alloys, ceramics, and semiconductor materials, as well as their characterization and qualification.

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. Micromachines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
