Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In current electronics systems, a phototransistor, a kind of device that realizes the functionality of light detection and signal magnification in a single device, is an essential optoelectronic integration component. Since William Shockley first proposed the concept of phototransistors in 1951, results with numerous types of materials and operating mechanisms have been reported. Furthermore, as vision-based machine learning technology becomes more important, interest in nanomaterials and devices that can sense images more accurately and efficiently is skyrocketing. In the flow of this science and these technologies, the aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Phototransistors Based on Nanofilms: Fabrication, Characterization, and Application” is to offer the latest cutting-edge research and development in the field. Research papers related to the synthesis, characterization of novel nanofilms, or nanocomposites and their practical applications are welcome in this Special Issue.
Dr. Seoung-ki Lee

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.
