Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
X-ray detection is required by medical diagnosis, industrial non-destructive inspection, nuclear reaction monitoring, and other fields. Metal halide perovskites, with the advantages of high X-ray absorption, high charge carrier mobility (μ), and long carrier lifetime (τ), show excellent potential in highly sensitive direct X-ray detection. Subsequently, by integrating these materials with pixelated sensor arrays, high-resolution perovskite X-ray imaging detectors can be fabricated.
This Special Issue’s scope ranges from the synthesis and modification of perovskite semiconductors to deice integration and X-ray detector performance optimization for imaging applications. This Special Issue focuses on both the scientific and engineering aspects of perovskite materials and the corresponding direct X-ray detectors, outlining fundamental properties, defects, and phase transitions which enable the observation of unprecedented physical phenomena at the nanoscale and the creation of state-of-the-art X-ray imaging detectors.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Yanliang Liu

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.
