Preparation, Theoretical Modeling and Application of Inorganic Photoelectric Materials

Dear Colleagues,

Inorganic photoelectric materials represent a rapidly evolving field at the intersection of materials science, photonics, and electronics. These materials have garnered significant attention due to their potential to revolutionize technologies across various domains, from renewable energy to advanced imaging systems. The state of the art in inorganic photoelectric materials includes developments in semiconductors, quantum dots, and other nanostructured materials, which have been optimized for superior optical and electronic properties. These advancements have paved the way for innovative applications such as high-efficiency solar cells, sensitive photodetectors, and next-generation light-emitting devices. However, challenges remain in the synthesis, processing, integration, and scalability of these materials to achieve their full potential in practical applications.

The forthcoming Special Issue, entitled “Preparation, Theoretical Modeling, and Application of Inorganic Photoelectric Materials”, seeks to gather high-quality research that delves into the synthesis, processing, and application of these materials. The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest developments and emerging trends in the field, highlighting both experimental and theoretical studies that can drive the future of photoelectric technology. We particularly encourage submissions that explore innovative approaches to material design, characterization techniques, innovative applications, the integration of these materials into practical devices, and the fundamental understanding of photoelectric processes in inorganic materials.

Potential topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Development and optimization of semiconductor materials for optoelectronic applications;
• Synthesis of quantum dots and their integration into optoelectronic devices;
• Advances in solar cell technologies;
• Innovations in photodetectors, imaging devices, and their material requirements;
• Applications of inorganic materials in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser materials;
• Nanostructured photoelectric materials and devices;
• Photocatalysts for energy conversion and environmental applications;
• Theoretical modeling and simulations of photoelectric phenomena;
• Advanced synthesis methods and novel techniques for processing and integration of inorganic photoelectric materials;
• Material processing techniques for enhanced photoelectric performance;
• Integration of photoelectric materials in flexible and wearable electronics.

We look forward to your valuable contributions that will help to shape the future of inorganic photoelectric materials and their applications.

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. Processes 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 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.
