Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Superconducting materials hold great potential in bringing radical changes for high-energy and high-field applications such as superconducting magnets, superconducting generators and motors, superconducting cables for power transmission, superconducting fault current limiter, and superconducting magnetic energy storage. It is necessary to elucidate the challenges and benefits of various types of superconducting materials and applications.
This Special Issue on “Advances in Materials, Devices and Applications of Superconducting Technology” will address the novel techniques, theories, and concepts for the research progress in superconducting materials, devices, and applications. Full articles, short communications, and review papers on theoretical modeling, numerical simulation, and experimental characterization are welcome for submission. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
Superconducting materials: material sciences and superconducting characterizations of various types of superconducting materials, such as HTS and LTS composite wires/tapes, films, and bulk superconductors.
Large-scale applications and superconducting power devices: Magnet motors, generators, power transmission lines and cables, transformers, superconducting magnetic energy storage, fault current limiters, superconducting maglev flywheel energy storage, etc.
Mechanical, electromagnetic, and thermal stability: Mechanical failure, electromechanical degradation, loss, stability, and quench characterization of superconductor materials and devices.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
