Applications of Environmental Nanotechnologies in Remediation, Wastewater Treatment, Drinking Water Treatment, and Agriculture

Ramona Kuhn, Isaac Mbir Bryant, Robert Jensch et al. · 17 Mar 2022

Today, nanotechnologies (NTs) are well established in both private households and commercial markets. NTs are fully accepted in several sectors, such as medicine and pharmacy, and in industries, such as chemistry, electricity, food production, military, and other commercial branches, due to their unique properties. With regard to the growing demands for environmental resources caused by…

Zeolites as Carriers of Nano-Fertilizers: From Structures and Principles to Prospects and Challenges

Vinayak Sharma, Bilal Javed, Hugh J. Byrne et al. · 19 Sep 2022

The world is facing immense challenges in terms of food security, due to the combined impacts of the ever-increasing population and the adversity of climate change. In an attempt to counteract these factors, smart nutrient delivery systems, including nano-fertilizers, additives, and material coatings, have been introduced to increase food productivity to meet the growing food…

Synthesis and Characterization of Various Bimetallic Nanoparticles and Their Application

Nkosinathi Goodman Dlamini, Albertus K. Basson, Viswanadha Srirama Rajasekhar Pullabhotla · 3 Jan 2023

Bimetallic nanoparticles are a complex nanoscale combination of two metal constituents. The superior properties of bimetallic nanoparticles (BNPs) compared with monometallic nanoparticles have attracted much attention from both scientific and technological perspectives. In recent years, many fabrication techniques have been proposed, and the detailed characterization of bimetallic nanoparticles has been made possible by the rapid…

Gas-Phase Synthesis of Functional Nanomaterials

Vladimir N. Popok, Ondřej Kylián · 2 Oct 2020

Nanoparticles (NPs) of different types, especially those of metals and metal oxides, are widely used in research and industry for a variety of applications utilising their unique physical and chemical properties. In this article, the focus is put on the fabrication of nanomaterials by means of gas-phase aggregation, also known as the cluster beam technique.…

RF Sputter-Deposited Nanostructured CuO Films for Micro-Supercapacitors

Mahendra Goddati, Reddappagari Malathi, Sairam P. Kedhareswara et al. · 25 Feb 2021

Copper oxide is considered as an alternative electrode material for supercapacitors due to its low cost, chemical stability and high theoretical specific capacitance. In the present work, nanostructured copper oxide (CuO) films are prepared by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering, and the influence of the substrate temperature on the microstructure and supercapacitive properties was studied. The…

Applied Nano template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Applied Nano format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Applied Nano template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Applied Nano use?
Applied Nano uses Numbered (MDPI) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. Applied Nano 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Applied Nano?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready Applied Nano document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Applied Nano template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Applied Nano format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Applied Nano?
Applied Nano (Appl. Nano) - MDPI Journal. It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by MDPI.
Can I export a submission-ready Applied Nano PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Applied Nano template (the mdpi class) that is ready to submit to MDPI, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Applied Nano template cost?
You can start writing in the Applied Nano template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Applied Nano PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
