Advances in Magnetic Soft Materials: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Soft magnetic materials have been used widely for almost one century. These materials can be farbricated into various high-performance devices owing to their low coercivity and high saturation magnetization and permeability. Recently, novel soft magnetic materials have been used to develop innovative devices with low loss and small size using cutting-edge micro-nano technology. This Special Issue focuses on recent developments in magnetic soft materials, focusing micro- and nano-structure aspects, including their synthesis, characterization, and applications.

Contributions focusing on the topic from different perspectives are welcome. The aim of this Special Issue is to share the most recent novel findings on the growth and development of soft magnetic materials for micro-nano-systems and innovative devices, including areas of magnetic micro/nano-particles, ferrofluids, magnetic-resonance imaging, magnetic filtering, magnetic sensors, magnetic actuators, biomedical applications, etc.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
