Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest developments and breakthroughs in the application of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in diverse fields of chemistry and materials science. NMR is a powerful analytical technique that is used to probe molecular structure, dynamic processes, and interactions. This Special Issue will focus on how NMR is being applied to reveal complex molecular systems, providing invaluable insights into areas such as organic and inorganic chemistry, material synthesis, and characterization.
This Special Issue will explore recent advances in NMR techniques, including novel liquid-state NMR methodology, solid-state NMR, and hyperpolarization methods. Additionally, it will address how NMR is being integrated with other complementary techniques, such as X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy, to provide deep insights into the structural and functional properties of materials. Through this Special Issue, we aim to present cutting-edge research on the role of NMR in designing new materials, investigating reaction mechanisms, and advancing our understanding of the molecular basis of various chemical and physical phenomena.

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.
