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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.

We theoretically demonstrated optical phase switches in light storage-like experiments. Typical light storage (LS) and retrieval experiments consist of the probe field in the probe channel with writing and reading fields across the drive branch, as well as its recovery. The probe and first drive pulses as the standard electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effect of storing light are used in the proposed scheme for the atomic excitations. A train of probe pulses is used after a short storage period to induce Raman gain in the drive channel. The proposed scheme was applied to alkali-metal atoms such as 23Na, 87Rb, and 39K vapours. Spatiotemporal phase variations for generated drive pulses were found to shape in the form of discrete phase distributions. The proposed approach in the process of obtaining phase discrete distributions for different irradiation intensities was tested. For weak fields, the discrete distributions were distinct as a result of the differences in the upper hyperfine structure (hf) and the atomic relaxations. However, for moderate fields, the discrete phase distributions are smeared by the atomic relaxations. Full article

In the present study, we aimed to determine whether the shelf life of effervescent tablets may be assessed during storage using total directional hemispherical reflectance (THR). We also analyzed selected pharmacopeial parameters of the tablets and used X-ray microtomography to assess the internal structure of the tablets. Two types of effervescent tablets of one commercial product containing magnesium and vitamin B6 (expired and unexpired) were analyzed. In addition, randomly selected unexpired and expired tablets were dried in a vacuum oven for 24 h at 50 °C. The expired effervescent tablets disintegrated in a significantly shorter time than the unexpired tablets (68 s vs. 83 s, p = 0.016). The remaining pharmacopeial parameters did not differ between the two types of tablets. We observed that expired effervescent tablets showed lower mean values of THR in five spectral ranges, which indicates that a greater amount of radiation beam was transmitted into their inner structure than for unexpired tablets. The density of the inner structure assessed on the microtomographic scans differed significantly between all the analyzed tablets (p < 0.001). The highest mean density was observed in the case of the unexpired tablets dried in a vacuum oven (1.273 g/cm3), while the lowest density was observed in the case of the expired tablets (1.261 g/cm3). The expired tablets had a larger pore diameter compared to the unexpired tablets (0.095 mm vs. 0.074 mm, respectively; p = 0.007). Additionally, the percentage of porosity was higher in the expired tablets compared to the unexpired tablets (p < 0.001). Full article
