Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Solar energy has undeniably risen to prominence as a central domain within the realm of renewable energy technologies. The solar power landscape has, in recent years, witnessed significant advancements across various photovoltaic technologies. These encompass crystalline silicon cells, thin-film technologies, organic solar cells, perovskite cells, and other emerging photovoltaic platforms. At the core of these technologies lies the fundamental principle of photovoltaic mechanisms. In this process, an active layer directly converts sunlight into electrons, while the charge-transporting layer facilitates their movement within the circuit. Notably, nanomaterials have assumed a pivotal role in enhancing the performance of photovoltaics, contributing to the advancement of functional materials, device physics, and novel structural designs.
We are pleased to announce our forthcoming Special Issue, “Nanomaterials for Photovoltaic System Applications”, which has been designed to highlight cutting-edge research papers and comprehensive review articles from the global research community. We extend a cordial invitation to researchers and innovators to submit their original work exploring the multifaceted role of nanomaterials in the realm of photovoltaic applications. Topics of interest include, but are not confined to, interface and layer enhancements, deposition technology optimizations, innovative structural designs, and a wide array of applications.
We eagerly await your invaluable 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.
