Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue of Inorganics titled Carbon Nanomaterials for Advanced Technology. Carbon nanomaterials have emerged over the past few decades as prime candidates for novel and next-generation applications in the technological materials space. Examples include graphene and carbon nanotubes for nanoelectronics, carbon nanoparticles for drug delivery systems and nanodiamonds in bioimaging. Their remarkable mechanical, thermal and electronic properties have attracted broad scientific attention and can be tailored for functional applications across all dimensions.
Significant steps in the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials have been realized in recent years, These range from rapid processes aimed at scaling up production to highly controlled conditions aimed at achieving selective growth. In unlocking the full potential of carbon nanomaterials to be realized, both experimental and theoretical techniques have been utilized. This has and will lead to the incorporation of carbon nanomaterials into advanced technologies.
This Special Issue aims to detail a collection of original research articles and reviews that reflect recent progress into understanding, synthesizing, and applying carbon nanomaterials. Contributions concerning all kinds of carbon nanomaterials are welcome, with the focus of the employed experimental and/or theoretical techniques being the implementation of carbon nanomaterials in emerging and advanced technology. These technologies could be (but are not limited to) nanoelectronics, sensing, bioimaging, biomedicine, catalysis, mechanical reinforcement and photocatalysis.
We are looking forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Inorganics 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 2700 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.
