Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dielectric ceramics are an important material widely applied in the fields of electronics and energy for capacitive energy storage, electrostriction, electrocaloric cooling, etc. Their structure, phase transition, and dielectric mechanism are crucial to achieving high-performance dielectric ceramics with high breakdown strength, high permittivity, low loss, and a wide operating temperature range. Characterizing structure and phase transition and evaluating its properties are significant to developing dielectric ceramics. In order to promote academic exchanges, Materials plans to launch a Special Issue entitled “Structures, Properties, and Phase Transition in Dielectric Ceramics”. This Special Issue aims to provide a unique international forum for researchers working in dielectric ceramics to report their latest endeavors to advance this field, including new pristine dielectric ceramics, strategies used to improve dielectric properties, dielectric mechanisms, the structures and phase transition of dielectric ceramics, the discovery of new dielectric ceramics, and so on. We will solicit high-level research papers and reviews globally.

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.

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.
