Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The study of solid state physics devices, including magnetic insulators, semiconductors, superconductors, and ferromagnetism, has significantly evolved over the last few decades.

This Special Issue of aims to publish a collection of research contributions illustrating the recent achievements in all aspects of the development, study, and understanding of solid state physics devices. We hope to present a collection of papers that will be of interest to scholars in the field. Contributions in the form of original research papers, review articles, and short communications on the above mentioned and related topics are welcome.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Applied Sciences.

Dr. Krzysztof Chwastek
Guest Editor

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.

Here, we present the investigation of the magnetic properties of Li3V2(PO4)3/Li3PO4 composites, which can be potentially used as a cathode material in lithium-ion batteries. Li3V2(PO4)3/Li3PO4 was synthesized by the thermal hydrolysis method and has a granular mesoporous structure. Magnetic properties of the composite were investigated using magnetometry and electron spin resonance methods. Based on magnetization measurements, the simultaneous existence of the paramagnetic phase with antiferromagnetic interactions between spins of V3+ ions and magnetically correlated regions was suggested. Most probably, magnetically correlated regions were formed due to anti-site defects and the presence of V4+ ions that was directly confirmed by electron spin resonance measurements. Full article

Nickel/carbon composites were synthesized by the carbonization method with the use of the steam-gas activation technique. Beet pulp and corn stems were used as initial raw materials for composites synthesis. The obtained substances were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and magnetic properties investigation. The presence of nickel in synthesized composites was estimated during analysis, and the average particle size of nickel was determined as well. The specific surface area of the obtained samples was measured by the technique of Methylene blue sorption from the aqueous solution. The results of the performed investigation demonstrate clearly the promising application of synthesized composites as magneto-active sorbents, which could be easily separated from water solutions.

This paper describes two cases of interaction between a quantized electromagnetic field and two different XY spin molecules; one with spins ½, and the other with spins 1. Both interact with a quantized electromagnetic field, with one of the spins in the chain interacting with the electromagnetic field. The interaction between the field mode and the spin chain with spins 1 is described by the one- and two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model (JC model). On the other hand, the interaction between the spins ½ and the electromagnetic field is described only by the one-photon Jaynes-Cummings model. Analytical and numerical calculations were made for the case of a different number of photons in the field mode, a different number of spins, and a different position of spin, interacting with the electromagnetic field. The invariant and block structures of such a chain are shown with a comparison made between the evolution of the magnetic moment and the number of photons in both cases. Full article
