Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to study the synthesis, characterization, mechanical properties, welding and corrosion of crystalline materials when utilized in various domains, including optical, magnetic, electrochemical, mechanical, thermal, electrical, biological, automotive, aerospace, biomedical, catalytic applications, etc.
This Special Issue will elucidate the function and particular application of these materials, study the mechanisms that influence the development of damage and degradation, as well as the methods that can be utilized to control these mechanisms.
This Special Issue will also address the utilization of different techniques for the synthesis of crystalline materials and for studying the properties associated with the microstructure of the material, such as the following: X-ray diffraction, x-ray fluorescence, X-ray microtomography (microCT), NMR, FTIR, circular dichroism spectroscopy, UV-VIS, Raman, XPS , AFM , SEM, EDX, TEM, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), impedance, polarization, Mössbauer, and many other techniques.

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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
