Novel Superconducting Materials and Applications of Superconductivity (2nd Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

Superconductivity is a fascinating phenomenon that still eludes a comprehensive understanding, leaving room for new experiments and analysis. New materials and approaches for obtaining superconductivity are continuously being discovered, fueling the need for fundamental investigations and theoretical studies.

Moreover, some materials are now technologically mature or close to becoming so, opening the way to paradigm shifts in several fields ranging from quantum computing and sensing to nuclear fusion technology.

This Special Issue, therefore, aims to provide space for theoretical and experimental studies in superconducting materials, as well as reports on technological advances based on exploiting superconductivity. We welcome scholars, academicians, and experts to submit full articles, short communications, and review papers.

Dr. Daniele Torsello

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.
