Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the past decade, nanogenerator technologies using triboelectric, piezoelectric, tribovoltaic, and other mechanisms have experienced enormous development. The integration of nanogenerators and functional devices has led to the implementation of various applications. We invite authors to contribute original research articles on the applied aspects of nanogenerator for implantable electronics, environmental sensors, nanorobotics, intelligent MEMS/NEMS, portable/wearable personal electronics, etc. This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the latest developments in nanogenerator technology for nanoelectronics via original research articles and reviews. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Mechanism and characteristics (triboelectric, piezoelectric, ferroelectric, etc.);
- Triboelectric, piezoelectric, flexoelectric, and ferroelectric nanomaterials/nanostructures;
- 1D/2D nanomaterial synthesis, characterization, and integration for nanogenerators;
- Fundamental study on material science, band structure, and interface engineering;
- Novel approaches in the integration and nanomanufacturing of tribotronic, piezotronics, and piezophototronic devices;
- Nanogenerators for electronics and sensors.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
