Evolution of Nanocrystalline Structures in Multilayer Thin Films with Sensing and Biomedical Applications

Dear Colleagues,

We invite researchers and scientists to contribute their latest findings to this Special Issue of Nanomaterials, dedicated to the "Evolution of Nanocrystalline Structures in Multilayer Thin Films with Sensing and Biomedical Applications". This Special Issue aims to explore the dynamics of nanocrystalline structures within multilayer thin films and to showcase cutting-edge research at the intersection of materials science and biomedical engineering, exploring the evolution of nanocrystalline structures within multilayer thin films and the pivotal role they play in advancing sensing technologies and biomedical applications.

This Special Issue encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, including, but not limited to, innovative fabrication techniques, structural evolution mechanisms, and the influence of nanocrystalline features on the performance of thin films in sensing as well as in a biomedical context. It provides a platform for scholars and experts to share their insights, fostering collaboration and pushing the boundaries of nanomaterials research.

We welcome original research articles that span the spectrum of nanomaterials, from synthesis and characterization to applications in cutting-edge sensing and in biomedical devices. We look forward to receiving submissions from researchers and experts focused on the synthesis, characterization, and applications of nanocrystalline structures to provide invaluable insights into the evolution of these structures across diverse thin film configurations, structural evolution mechanisms, and the impact of nanocrystalline features on the performance of thin films in sensing as well as in a biomedical context.

We aim to publish a series of papers able to broaden the collective knowledge that will hopefully drive innovation in nanocrystalline structures and their applications. Please consider submitting your research articles to be part of this exciting exploration at the forefront of nanomaterials science, to serve as a comprehensive resource for scientists, engineers, and practitioners, fostering further advancements in the evolving landscape of nanocrystalline structures and their transformative impact on sensing, as well as in a biomedical realm.

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.
