Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce our upcoming Special Issue entitled Semiconductor Materials for Energy Conversion. This Special Issue will delve into the historical evolution of semiconductor materials, especially low-bandgap variants, in terms of their applications, including in solar cells, thermoelectric generators, and light-emitting diodes, as well as their role in the versatile conversion of light, electricity, and mechanical energy. We invite scholars to submit contributions that unravel the latest advancements, challenges, and breakthroughs in this dynamic field, as this will help foster cross-disciplinary discussions and push the boundaries of energy conversion technologies.
Dr. Peng Gao
Guest Editor
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.
