Frontiers in Molecule-Based Magnets

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Molecule-based magnets have witnessed an enormous development over the past few decades due to an intense focus on the discovery of new materials and phenomena and the need for a deeper understanding of the origin of their properties. It is an interdisciplinary field that combines several categories of fascinating species, including single molecule/chain/ion magnets, ferromagnets, spin crossover systems, thermal/photo/pressure-induced magnetic switches, spintronics, etc., which have the potential to be used in a wide range of technological and biomedical applications. This Special Issue aims to present research that spans the entire landscape of molecule-based magnets and identify and review the recent developments and breakthroughs in this field.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
