Nanoelectronics

We invite submissions of original research articles that explore nanoelectronics. This collection on nanoelectronics aims to showcase the latest breakthroughs in the design, fabrication, and application of nanoscale electronic components. As traditional silicon-based scaling approaches their physical limits, this collection focuses on the materials and architectures that will define the next generation of information technology. 

The scope of this collection includes, but is not limited to, the following areas of research:

• Low-Dimensional Materials: Electronic transport and device integration of 2D materials (TMDCs, graphene, h-BN), 1D nanowires/nanotubes, and 0D quantum dots; colloidal electronics.
• Beyond-CMOS Architectures: Innovations in neuromorphic computing, memristive systems, and steep-slope transistors (e.g., TFETs and NC-FETS).
• Quantum Electronics: Solid-state qubits, topological insulators, and superconducting circuits for quantum information processing.
• Spin-Based Electronics (Spintronics): Pure spin currents, magnetic tunnel junctions, and skyrmion-based logic.
• Molecular and Organic Electronics: Charge transport through single molecules and the development of flexible, printed nanoscale circuits.
• Nanoscale Interconnects & Thermal Management: Addressing Joule heating and signal delay through carbon-based or plasmonic interconnects.

We encourage submissions of primary research articles and these should fit within the scope of Nanoscale. Please see the journal webpage for more information on the journal’s scopes, standards and author guidelines.  Manuscripts should be submitted via the Royal Society of Chemistry’s online submission service available here. Please ensure that during the submission process you indicate that this is an open call submission for “Nanoelectronics” themed collection.
