Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue presents a curated collection of contemporary research and future directions in the field of magnetism and magnetic materials. It will feature contributions that span fundamental scientific advances and innovative technological applications.
The Issue will spotlight hot topics such as altermagnetism, magnon dynamics, spintronics, biomedical applications, machine learning in magnetism, and high-frequency applications, reflecting the dynamic and interdisciplinary nature of current research. These areas represent the forefront of magnetic materials science, where novel physical phenomena and device concepts are rapidly evolving.
In addition to exploring new magnetic phases and mechanisms, the Special Issue will highlight experimental breakthroughs and theoretical insights that are driving progress in magnetic sensing, logic devices, and energy-efficient information technologies. Contributions may also address the integration of magnetic materials into hybrid systems and multifunctional platforms, expanding their relevance across diverse fields.
By bringing together perspectives from physics, materials science, and engineering, this Special Issue aims to foster cross-disciplinary dialogue and accelerate innovation. Researchers are invited to submit original articles, reviews, and perspectives that explore both the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of magnetism.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized 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.
