About this Research Topic
Low-dimensional nanomaterials (LDMs) have unique structures and interesting properties, and have broad application prospects in many fields such as energy storage and conversion, gas sensing, optics, and electronics. The low cost and controllable preparation of LDMs is an important prerequisite for their application in various fields. And the growth conditions and post-treatment process of materials have a great impact on the structure and properties of materials. In-depth study of crystal growth kinetics, defects formation and structure doping of LDMs will help to understand the basic physical and chemical properties of materials and explore their new applications. Due to its high specific surface area and excellent stability, LDM is considered to have a very promising application prospect in electrocatalysis, supercapacitors, battery electrode materials and gas sensing. Moreover, the unique electrical and optical properties of LDMs make them widely used in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. Inspired by the tremendous progress made by LDM in application of energy, optics and electronics, more and more researchers have joined this research field.
This Research Topic aims to address the latest outstanding and cutting-edge progress in growth of LDMs, and their widespread applications in energy storage, conversion, sensing technology and electronics. Although great progresses have been made to fabricate high-quality LDMs, preparation of LDMs to meet their application needs in different fields has always been challenging. We warmly welcome Original Research articles on the preparation and post-processing technology of various LDMs, which can be used for energy storage, conversion, gas-sensing and electronics. The application of various LDMs in the field of energy, gas sensing and electronics has attracted more and more attention of scientists, and articles reporting or reviewing the development of new LDMs suitable for energy applications, gas sensing and electronics are also highly encouraged by this issue.
