Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transistors are elementary units of almost all electronic systems. Due to the limitations of Moore's law and traditional semiconductor transistors, for the purpose of improving transistors’ response frequency and broadening their capabilities in neuromorphological calculation, energy harvesting, sensors and so on, numerous contributions have been made to develop nano-material-based solutions. Among them, graphene-based field-effect transistors (GFETs) have been proved to be an optimum candidate in the next post-Si generation due to graphene’s superior high theoretical charge-carrier speed and electron mobility, extremely high transconductance gain, etc. GFETs can be retrospected to the finding of graphene; up until now, GFETs have been the focus of attention in many fields, such as nanometer-sized high-speed logic circuits, synaptic devices and sensors for the detection of gas, DNA, protein, and viruses, etc.
In this respect, the design and fabrication of GFETs, their implementation in high-speed logic circuits, and their applications in artificial synapses and sensors are all the focusing topics of this Special Issue, especially the efforts or novel ideas in the disciplines of the artificial synapses, sensors, electronic skin, power-generation and storage devices, and so on.
We would like to invite researchers and scientists to publish their works in this Special Issue with research papers and review articles focusing on trends in GFETs, from fundamental research to applications. The focus of this Issue includes but is not limited to sensors, synaptic devices, modelling and simulation.

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. Micromachines 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 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.
