Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The abundance of two-dimensional (2D) materials has provided tremendous research opportunities and led to extensive investigations of their unique electronic, optical, chemical, thermal and mechanical properties. Their atomic thickness, sizeable bandgaps and van der Waals layer coupling make them highly designable and manipulable for novel device applications. Along with the rapid development of controllable and scalable synthesis techniques of high-quality 2D materials and their heterostructures, devices with extraordinary performance have been designed and fabricated, including transistors, memories, spintronic devices, photodetectors, transducers and sensing devices. In this Special Issue, we aim to focus on the characterization and manipulations of 2D materials and their heterostructures for novel properties and device applications. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase all types of papers, e.g., research papers, communications, and review articles covering relevant topics on: (1) novel electronic, optical, thermal and mechanical properties of 2D materials and heterostructures; (2) manipulation of 2D materials including but not limited to doping, stacking, twisting, bending and so on, for new physics and device applications.
We look forward to receiving your submissions!

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.
