Relativistic quantum information is one of the most exciting fields of physics today. Not only does it open possibilities for new forms of computing but it also calls into question the peaceful coexistence between classical space-time and quantum physics with scenarios that reopen the relationships between locality and nonlocality in the foundational structure of physics. Curated by two international experts Ignazio Licata and Fabrizio Tamburini, this volume hosts a selection of particularly significant essays for the new territories, and is dedicated to the 60th anniversary of Prof. Ignazio Licata.

Micro manufacturing involves dealing with the fabrication of structures in the size range of 0.1 to 1000 µm. The scope of nano manufacturing extends the size range of manufactured features to even smaller length scales—below 100 nm. A strict borderline between micro and nano manufacturing can hardly be drawn, such that both domains are treated as complementary and mutually beneficial within a closely interconnected scientific community. Both micro and nano manufacturing can be considered as important enablers for high-end products. This Special Issue of Applied Sciences is dedicated to recent advances in research and development within the field of micro and nano manufacturing. The included papers report recent findings and advances in manufacturing technologies for producing products with micro and nano scale features and structures as well as applications underpinned by the advances in these technologies.
