Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Crystals played an important role in the development of non-equilibrium thermodynamics from the early 20th century. Nowadays, there is an increasing interest not only in novel materials, such as nano-crystals, but also in non-equilibrium thermodynamics methods. The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together researchers from both areas to share methods and ideas. The topics include but are not limited to:
- Nano-crystals;
- Modeling of bio-macromolecules interactions;
- Crystallization theories;
- Kinetics of crystallization;
- Thermodynamics of crystallization;
- Crystallization in industrial processes far from equilibrium;
- Phase separation and crystallization;
- Complex processes;
- Theory and simulations;
- Transport properties in crystals.

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. Crystals 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.
