Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Soft magnetic materials are widely used in electronics, energy conversion, information processing, and many other application scenarios. Indeed, it is safe to assume that whenever you use electricity, there are soft magnetic materials working for you. Recently, technological progress in soft magnetic materials has been focused on the processing of rapidly quenched amorphous and nanocrystalline materials (either in the form of ribbon or powder) as well as the improvement of magnetic properties of soft magnetic composites (SMCs) and soft ferrites to fit the use at high frequency devices driven by Wide Bandgap Semiconductors (SiC/GaN). Moreover, newly soft magnetic devices have also been designed fast for the rapid development of fabrication methods and the new applications. This Special Issue on “Soft Magnetic Materials and Their Applications” will provide a valuable and timely forum for sharing recent advances in the synthesis, fundamentals, characterization, and applications of soft magnetic materials.
To strengthen the research and development process of soft magnetic materials and magnetic devices, this Special Issue integrates the presentation of recent advances in the following areas:
- Silicone steels;
- Soft ferrites;
- Soft magnetic composites;
- Amorphous soft magnetic alloys;
- Nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloys;
- High-frequency soft magnetic materials;
- Processing technology of soft magnetic materials;
- Applications of soft magnetic materials in power conversion;
- Applications of soft magnetic materials in motors;
- Applications of soft magnetic materials in sensors;
- Applications of soft magnetic materials in communications.

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. 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.
