Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Perovskite oxides (ABO3) are unique materials due to their ability to form a variety of structures and chemical compositions via the substitution of A- and B-site cations. The doping process changes the optical, electrical, and catalytic properties of perovskite oxides by modifying their defect density, vacancy, and valance state. The main challenge in this field is the design of new perovskite oxide structures with an optimized defect structure, enhanced electrical, optical, and thermal properties, a high surface area, and long-term stability. Furthermore, a comprehensive understanding of the structure–property relationship is vital for emerging applications.
We encourage scientists from different backgrounds to contribute original research articles, reviews, and perspectives concerning nanostructured perovskite oxide and functional applications to this Special Issue. The scope of this Issue includes, but is not limited to: perovskite oxide synthesis, fabrication, nanostructuring, thin films, doping, defect engineering to tune properties, nanoparticle exsolution, characterizations, applications covering electrocatalyst, photocatalysts, batteries, fuel cells, CO2 conversion, energy conversion storage, and mechanistic aspects. Other research related to nanostructured perovskite oxide-based materials is also welcome.

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. Nanomanufacturing is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
