Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of quantum materials encompasses a diverse range of materials that exhibit unique and often exotic quantum phenomena due to their specific electronic and structural properties, and these materials have the potential to revolutionize various technologies, including electronics, information processing, and energy harvesting.
In summary, the history of optical, physical, and chemical characteristics, and the functional modulation of novel quantum materials is deeply rooted in the evolution of quantum mechanics, semiconductor physics, and the ongoing quest to harness quantum phenomena for technological advancement. Ongoing research continues to unveil new possibilities and applications in this rapidly evolving field.
The primary goal of this Special Issue is to contribute to the knowledge and development of quantum materials by investigating their optical, physical, and chemical characteristics. Researchers aim to deepen their understanding of these materials at the quantum level and uncover new ways to modulate their functional properties, with the overarching aim being to facilitate advancements in technology and materials science through the innovative use of quantum phenomena.
This Special Issue encompasses a diverse set of topics including topological quantum materials, quantum dots and nanomaterials, 2D materials and heterostructures, quantum materials for quantum information processing, machine learning in quantum materials research, quantum sensing and metrology, and energy harvesting and storage.
We welcome submissions of review articles and original research articles on the theoretical study of quantum materials and innovation in applications and devices and the synthesis and characterization of materials.

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.
