Emerging Nanomaterials for Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Over the past century, nanomaterials have seen incredible progress in many technological areas. Research into the nanoscale has been prompted by the ongoing quest for more functional materials, which has made it possible to create complex structures with unique and tailored characteristics. Specifically, nanoscale engineering has already shown its potential to transform device performance, stability, and scalability in two of the most active fields: photovoltaics and optoelectronics. Emerging Nanomaterials for Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics is a Special Issue that seeks to highlight the most recent advancements in the fabrication of novel nanomaterials and nanotechnologies, exploring the fields of synthesis, engineering, characterization, and advanced applications in these fields. The roles of dimensionality, morphology, surface/interface engineering, and compositional control in adjusting the functional properties of emerging materials, such as metal oxides, perovskites, hybrid structures, and other next-generation systems, will receive particular attention. This Special Issue aims to provide comprehensive insights into how nanomaterials are shaping the future of energy conversion and light-based technologies, and we invite you to share your valuable insights.

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 2400 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.
