Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Low-dimensional materials, including zero-dimensional quantum dots/nanoparticles, one-dimensional nanowires/nanotubes, two-dimensional nanosheets and their hybrid multi-dimensional nanocomposites, have garnered significant attention due to their exotic physical and chemical properties aroused from the quantum effect and associated surface chemistry, which reveals great promise for various applications ranging from electronics and photonics to energy storage and catalysis. Surface studies play a crucial role in understanding the properties and behaviors of these materials at the nano scale, while chemical functionalization opens up avenues for tailoring their properties and enhancing their performance for advanced applications.
By assembling cutting-edge research and insights from experts in the field, this Special Issue aims to gather the latest research trends in the field of low-dimensional materials, with a particular focus on surface characterization techniques and chemical functionalization strategies, as well as new applications. Authors are encouraged to submit original research articles and review papers that contribute to collective knowledge and foster collaborations in the study of low-dimensional materials and their surface properties and functionalization.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
