Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pulsed power technology refers to electrophysical technology, where the energy stored slowly can be effectively released into a load instantaneously with a high power through compression on a time scale, transmission, and convergence in space. Pulsed power technology plays an important role in both civil and military applications because it can produce many kinds of extreme physical environments, such as high temperature, high pressure, high density plasma, strong shock wave, a high electric field, and intense radiation.
The Special Issue on “Challenges for Pulsed power Technology” aims to reflect recent developments in pulsed power technology, particularly in high-performance pulsed power components, novel circuit topologies, pulsed power facilities, and their applications.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following areas:
- Fundamental research;
- High voltage insulation and pulsed discharges;
- Pulsed power switches and components;
- Pulsed power systems;
- High-energy density plasmas and applications;
- Charged particle beam and accelerators;
- High-power microwave and RF sources;
- Plasma and pulse power diagnostics;
- Repetitive frequency pulsed power technology;
- Industrial/commercial/medical applications of pulsed power technology.
- We hope the Special Issue can promote the development of pulsed power technology and communication between researchers.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
