Nanomaterials for Electromagnetic Absorption and Shielding

Dear Colleagues,

Electromagnetic waves are of critical concern due to their far-reaching impact, such as interference with electronic devices and environmental electromagnetic pollution, highlighting the general trend towards advancing electromagnetic absorption and shielding technologies. Researchers aspire to develop materials that fulfill these objectives, emphasizing characteristics, such as being thin, lightweight, and flexible.

Nanomaterials have garnered substantial attention for their applications in electromagnetic shielding and absorption due to their unique properties and structures at the nanoscale. These materials exhibit remarkable capabilities in managing electromagnetic radiation by either absorbing, reflecting, or diffusing the waves. With the ability to manipulate electromagnetic fields in such a way, nanomaterials have emerged as promising solutions for enhancing electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and absorption in various industries. From aerospace and telecommunications to electronics and healthcare, the applications of nanomaterials in this domain offer innovative possibilities for creating more efficient and reliable shielding technologies.

This Special Issue will focus on recent advances in nanostructure fine-tuning and structural engineering, particularly on novel fabrication strategies to realize controlled structures (size, shape, and morphology), and on developing various engineering designs to improve their electromagnetic absorption and shielding performance while revealing mechanisms for their performance enhancement.

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. Magnetochemistry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
