Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A deep understanding of the electronic and optical properties of heterostructures is becoming increasingly crucial to a wide range of applications in modern electronic, optoelectronic, spintronic, and valleytronic devices. Therefore, the selection of a proper method for characterizing these structures is very important to understanding these properties. Various heterostructures exhibit different synergistic relationships between two or more structural elements that improve their functional properties. The interplay between the fabrication parameters and their optical and electrical properties can be evaluated using several characterization methods, including, inter alia, Raman, X-ray photoelectron, photoluminescence, and capacitance spectroscopy.
In this Special Issue, we aim to highlight and discuss key electronic and properties of modern heterostructures.
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for publication in this Special Issue. Original research papers, review articles, and short communications are welcome.
Dr. Witold Rzodkiewicz
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. Materials 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 2600 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.
