Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electromagnetic microwaves (EMW) are among the most important concerns. EMW radiation causes numerous problems, including electronic device interference and electromagnetic environmental pollution, making the development of EMW absorption a general trend. Researchers’ goal is to create EMW absorption materials that are thin, lightweight, and flexible. The defined size, shape, and morphology of nanomaterials influence their EMW absorption properties significantly.
Although nanostructured materials provide abundant absorption sites, their limited impedance matching and conductivity in bulk form significantly hinder their absorption effectiveness in practical applications. Therefore, the engineering of nanostructured materials with tailored morphologies, phases, dimensions, defects, and interfaces is critical for increasing specific surface area, enriching absorption sites, improving electronic conductivity, extending EMW absorption paths, and ultimately enhancing their ability to convert electromagnetic energy into heat.
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 EMW absorption 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 2200 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.
