Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in the understanding and manipulation of electronic structure and magnetic interactions in emerging quantum materials. Topics of interest include topological insulators and semimetals, magnetic van der Waals systems, spin–orbit coupled materials, and correlated electron systems. We invite scholars to submit contributions that explore the role of symmetry, topology, and external tuning parameters—such as pressure, magnetic field, and chemical doping—in tailoring the quantum properties of materials. Experimental and theoretical studies addressing electronic band structure, magneto-transport, spin dynamics, and quantum phase transitions are welcome.
Dr. Manish Mani Sharma

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
