Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has emerged as a pivotal solution to address worldwide issues such as an aging society, environmental concerns, and energy usage. Micro-/Nanoengineering systems play a vital role in advancing the IoT due to their miniaturization, energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, high performance, enhanced functionality, scalability and flexibility. Device-/System-based micro-/nanofabrication technologies demonstrate increased intelligence and responsiveness to their environment. This Special Issue aims to bring together researchers from academia and industry to share their latest findings, discuss challenges and opportunities, and provide insights into future directions of research in the field of micro-/nanoengineering systems.

This Special Issue will focus on recent works related to micro-/nanotechnologies and devices. Topics can include but are not limited to:

  1. Novel micro-/nano fabrication technologies;
  2. Micro-/Nano electro-mechanical devices and systems;
  3. Micro-/Nanodevices for energy harvesting and storage applications;
  4. Micro-/Nanodevices for biomedical engineering;
  5. Micro-/Nanodevices for micro-/nanofluidics;
  6. Micro-/Nanodevices based on nanomaterials;
  7. Integration of micro-/nanodevices with other technologies.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
