Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last few decades, significant progress has been made in the synthesis of a wide range of semiconductor materials using a chemical solution method. The solution-based method is generally flexible, faster, and less expensive compared to vapor deposition methods. The solution-based process can exhibits capable and cost-effective manufacturing performance in the creation of high-quality inorganic or organic films for various applications. Recent developments in processes and applications have led to new advances in microelectronic and photonic devices (e.g., field-effect transistors, solar cells, sensors, memory devices, etc.).
We invite authors to contribute original research as well as review articles on the recent progress of all kinds of solution-based methods in relation to semiconductors and their applications in microelectronic and photonic devices. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Solution-based methods with Si, III-V, or other semiconductors.
- The synthesis and properties of solution-based thin films (including physical, chemical, and electronic properties).
- Solution-based processes in relation to semiconductors in electronic or optoelectronic applications.
- Novel concepts and applications of solution-based processes.

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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
