Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, including hexagonal boron nitrides (hBN), Mxenes, and MOFs, have emerged as a new class of materials and have attracted considerable attention from researchers in the past few years for various commercial areas, such as energy production, storage, and device applications. More recently, the emergence of 2D heterostructures from the synergetic combinations of different 2D materials has put forward this material technology for next-level sensitive applications with intriguing functionalities of substituted components. In this pursuit, a deep understanding of these 2D materials at the atomic and molecular level is highly desirable to unlock the design and construction of superthin, high-quality, task-specific 2D films. With the notable exception of the commercial realization of graphene-based materials, the development of various novel 2D materials remains immature and needs further technology validation in terms of simple and saleable synthesis protocols.
Considering the ongoing research on design and technology innovation around 2D-based materials, this Special Issue aims to collect significant contributions in the form of original research or reviews in the design and technology-oriented manufacturing of 2D-based superthin materials for various applications.

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.
