Study on the Growth and Performance of Materials under Magnetic Field

Dear Colleagues,

Magnetic fields have long been considered significant means to investigate the magnetic properties of materials. With the development of growth and assembly methods, magnetic field, similar to conventional reaction conditions such as temperature, pressure, and surfactant, has been developed as a new parameter for growing and assembling special structures  (mainly through magneto-hydrothermal synthesis, magnetic-field-assisted laser deposition, etc.). Moreover, some advanced experiments have recently revealed fascinating magnetically induced enhancements in photoelectrocatalysis, batteries and so on, which received a great deal of attention due to their efficiency, tunability, and feasibility. Magneto-electrochemistry provides a new, effective, and general strategy to improve the activity of electrode materials and mass transfer, which will be a significant future development direction.

This Special Issue of Magnetochemistry aims to provide a valuable forum for scientists to share their most recent novel findings on the growth and assembly of materials, and on electrode material performance under magnetic fields, as well as their related mechanisms.

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. 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.
