Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrons possess both charge and spin. Conventional electronic devices, designed based on semiconductor materials, make use of the charge degree of freedom, while spintronic devices utilize the spin properties of electrons. Due to the successful commercial application of magnetic random-access memory technology and magnetic sensors, recent years have seen increasing research efforts devoted to this field. The discovery of novel spintronics materials, combined with progress in device fabrication and characterization, offers new possibilities for spintronic applications in the future.
Encouraged by the rapid development of spintronics, we are pleased to now announce the launch of a collection of research papers and review articles concerning “spintronic materials and devices”. We encourage researchers in relevant areas to submit contributions covering issues of fundamental science, spintronics materials, and devices characterization. This Special Issue aims to bring together the contributions of experts from different communities including engineering, material science, chemistry, and physics.

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. Magnetochemistry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2200 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.
