Advanced Materials for Intelligent Electronics

Dear Colleagues,

Over the past few years, there has been considerable interest from both academia and industry in advanced materials for intelligent electronics.

Advanced materials hold great significance in the fields of intelligent electronics, such as nanoelectronics and nanophotonics, primarily due to their exceptional properties. These unique characteristics make smart materials well-suited for various advanced technologies.

With their remarkable properties, advanced materials have emerged as a cutting-edge research area, paving the way for numerous applications in diverse fields such as energy, environment, sensors, and biomedicine. These materials have brought about new possibilities and opportunities in these areas.

This Topic will focus on recent advancements in a novel category of advanced materials. These materials comprise nanoparticles, such as semiconductor nanoparticles/quantum dots, metal nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and two-dimensional nanostructured materials, such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, MXene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and perovskites. We encourage the submission of high-quality original research and review articles in this field.

The topics of interest encompass a wide range and are not limited to the following:

• Novel synthesis and fabrication techniques of functional materials.
• Characterization and evaluation of chemical and physical properties of materials.
• Applications of the materials in energy-related technologies (e.g., solar cells, batteries).
• The advanced materials for environmental remediation and pollution control.
• The advanced materials for sensing and detection applications.
• Biomedical applications of nanocomposite materials.
• The materials for advanced electronic and optoelectronic devices.
• Multifunctional nanocomposites for diverse applications.
• Theoretical modeling and simulation studies of advanced materials.
• Advances in nanocomposite coatings and surface modifications.
• The advanced materials for additive manufacturing and 3D printing.
• Challenges and future perspectives in the field of advanced materials for intelligent electronics.

These topics serve as a general guideline, and contributions related to other relevant aspects of advanced materials for intelligent electronics are also welcome.

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. Electronics 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.
