Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intermetallic alloys are always a fascinating subject regarding the study of different quantum mechanical effects. Their preparation—especially with emergent behavior—is the first step to the forefront development of material engineering, taking into account the newest findings in quantum mechanics. Intermetallic alloys could be used to study, for example, the quantum criticality and how to reach it by tuning different parameters. They are also important for finding the best material with good magnetocaloric properties. The main aim is to find new materials which are eco-friendly and able to substitute the gases used in conventional refrigerators near room temperature. On the other hand, finding new materials with this effect is important due to the needs of space research. Another example is finding materials which are applicable in information technologies, where magnetoresistance is very important.
Therefore, in this Special Issue we welcome articles that focus on the transport, electric and magnetic properties of intermetallic alloys, which can be prepared by different methods, and their influence on the final products’ performance.

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. Alloys is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
