Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We welcome the submission of original research papers that focus on additive manufacturing of magnetic materials. The potentials to advance many modern production technologies by additive manufacturing processes have inspired many scientific research efforts. Although the application of additive manufacturing to magnetic materials is still in nascent state, it has become a key focus in academic and industrial research. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research efforts applying additive manufacturing processes to magnetic materials. Magnetic materials of interest include permanent magnets, soft magnetic materials, magnetocaloric materials, magnetoelastic materials, magnetic shape memory alloys, energy-harvesting magnetic materials and other functional magnetic materials, devices and systems. Research efforts on functionalization and characterization of magnetic materials made via all types of additive manufacturing processes are also encouraged. In addition, we encourage submission of research contributions advancing the application of magnetic materials in other novel technologies via additive manufacturing processes.

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. Micromachines 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 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.
