Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

“More is different”. Interacting electrons on the mesoscopic scale present emerging phenomena of multi-body systems in condensed matters. The Special Issue covers cutting-edge studies on the mechanics, thermology, optics, electricity, and magnetism of nanomaterials. These studies include not only novel phenomena in new nanomaterials but also fundamental phenomena in the “old” ones.

We hope that the Special Issue will shed light on the theoretical limitations of weak, medium, and strong interactions among electrons, and, importantly, provide insights on the future development of material synthesis methods, structural and property characterizations, and scientific strategies.

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.

There is much interest regarding the “coupled ferroelectricity and superconductivity” in the two-dimensional material, bilayer Td-MoTe2; however, the value and the type of electric polarization are unknown. The device structure and the measurement method show that the measured material is the composite of the pseudo-bilayer quantum Hall system, with a thickness of about thirty-six nanometers. The derived dielectric hysteresis loops and the calculated electronic structure reveal that the condensed large polarons are responsible for the reverse ferroelectricity and the coupled superconductivity. The maximum value of polaron-type electric polarization is ~12 nC/μm2 or 1.2 × 104 μc/cm2. Full article
