Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have successfully been deployed in mobile phones, televisions and light sources in recent decades, owing to continued improvements in both lifetimes and performance. The new generation OLEDs are far more energy-efficient light sources then traditional incandescent light bulbs and can cover the full spectral range, from visible, to infrared, and ultraviolet wavelengths. New high conductivity conjugated semiconductor polymers, small molecules and nanoparticles are used to achieve high performance OLEDs by incorporation into multilayer structures. Developing new emitter materials to improve the external quantum efficiency and lifetime of OLEDs is a hot topic nowadays. In particular, the use of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules has been shown to harvest triplet excitons to achieve high performance OLEDs. In addition, the high solubility of these new materials in green solvents provides the opportunity to use modern printed technologies to deliver next-generation high-performance organic electronic devices. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research papers and review articles that focus on high performance organic light emitting devices, new materials for OLEDs, and printing technologies relevant to OLED applications.

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.
