Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of Nanophotonics and Plasmonics has emerged as a pivotal area of research, bridging the gap between optics and nanotechnology. This interdisciplinary domain explores the behavior of light at the nanoscale, particularly the interaction of light with metallic and dielectric nanostructures, leading to phenomena such as surface plasmon resonance. Rapid advancements in this field are driven by potential applications in sensing, imaging, data storage, bio-medicine, photocatalysis, and quantum computing.
This Special Issue of Nanomaterials aims to present the latest research in Nanophotonics and Plasmonics, including innovative approaches and methodologies that are shaping the future of this field. This issue seeks to foster a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles governing nanoscale light–matter interactions and their practical implications.
The Special Issue welcomes original research articles, review papers, and perspectives that cover a broad range of topics within Nanophotonics and Plasmonics. This includes, but is not limited to, the following areas:
- Design and fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures;
- Theoretical modeling of light-nanostructure interactions;
- Plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy and sensing;
- Optical properties of hybrid nanomaterials;
- Nanophotonic devices for energy and information technology;
- Quantum plasmonics and topological photonics;
- Applications of plasmonics in biomedicine and environmental science.
By assembling a collection of high-quality articles, this Special Issue aims to serve as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals in the field of Nanophotonics and Plasmonics, promoting further advancements and collaborations.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
