Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the increasing use of electronic devices across various industries, such as communication, medicine, and transportation, the significance of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has risen. Addressing these issues is crucial to protect electronic devices and installations from potential malfunctions, damage, and security breaches caused by electromagnetic pollution. Nanostructures, such as carbon nanomaterials, metal nanomaterials, semiconductor nanomaterials,  transition metal carbon/nitride, as well as metamaterials, have been extensively studied due to their exceptional electromagnetic properties, including high electrical conductivity, magnetic permeability, dielectric constant, and surface functionalization. These distinctive properties enable nanostructures to exhibit significant shielding effectiveness, reduce reflection loss, and offer a wide range of adjustable frequency responses.

The objective of this Nanomaterials Special Issue is to showcase recent advancements in nanostructures for electromagnetic interference shielding and microwave absorption applications, as well as to propose research ideas and a theoretical foundation for their enhancement and optimization. The contributions encompass various aspects such as synthesis, characterization, modeling, simulation, and applications. It is anticipated that this Special Issue will not only stimulate further research and innovation but also advance the comprehension of this crucial and promising field.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

electromagnetic interference shielding, electromagnetic absorption and radiation, carbon nanomaterials, metal nanomaterials, semiconductor nanomaterials, transition metal carbon/nitride, and plasmonic and microwave metamaterials.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
