Functional Soft Magnetic Materials and Electromagnetic Shielding Technology

Dear Colleagues,

Quantum precision measurement technology, as a disruptive innovation, surpasses the measurement limits of traditional methods and holds significant scientific and strategic value. The rapid advancements in quantum precision measurement have created new opportunities for generational leaps in weak measurement, inertial measurement, gravity, and time measurement. Under ideal conditions without external interference, the ultimate sensitivity of various parameters is solely determined by quantum noise. However, in practical measurements, electromagnetic noise imposes limitations, preventing the realization of ultra-high sensitivity. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel soft magnetic materials and breakthrough electromagnetic shielding technologies to support the advancement of quantum technologies and their critical roles in scientific research, industrial production, national defense, and societal applications.

This Special Issue on "Functional Soft Magnetic Materials and Electromagnetic Shielding Technology" aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge and implementation levels of electromagnetic shielding materials and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, composite materials, wave-absorbing materials, ferrite materials, amorphous and nanocrystalline materials, permalloy materials, electromagnetic shielding design, magnetic field regulation, magnetic shielding applications, demagnetization methods for shielding, shielding effectiveness, and theoretical modeling of magnetic noise.

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials 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 2600 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.
