Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnetic sensors play an important role in many industries (microelectronics, security and electronic surveillance, automotive, aerospace and aircraft, home entertainment, computer science, electrical engineering, magnetic recording, construction monitoring, sensorics among others), providing the ability to detect events or changes in the environment and monitor such events through other electronic devices, for example, through a computer processor. Therefore, research and development in the field of magnetic sensors have recently attracted great attention from academia and industry.
In the last several years, numerous high-profile papers have been published by the community involved in the field related to development and design of novel high-performance magnetic sensors.
Recent trends in magnetic sensorics are focused on miniaturization, the improvement of features, and the finding of new operating principles based on fundamental studies of new materials and phenomena.
This Topical Collection will focus on the latest developments, research findings, ideas for highly sensitive magnetic devices and applications, and magnetic sensing technology, focused on basic phenomena and fundamental aspects of magnetic materials suitable for magnetic sensors and applications as well as on wireless non-destructive control and monitoring, wearable electronics, and medicine involving magnetic sensorics.
Both reviews and original research papers will be considered. Reviews should provide an up-to-date, well-balanced overview of the current state of the art of a particular application and include the main results from other groups.
The topics of this Topical Collection encompass but are not restricted to the following areas:
- Magnetic sensors and actuators including, Hall-effect devices, magnetometers, magnetoimpedance sensors, magnetoresistance sensors, magnetoelastic sensors;
- Novel magnetic materials for sensor and actuator applications and their advanced processing;
- Fundamentals and physics involving basic effects, theory, modeling of magnetic sensors;
- Magnetic measurements and instrumentation, measurement standards;
- Smart materials and composites for wireless and non-destructive control including tunable metamaterials;
- Development of magnetic sensors applications including biomedicine, electronic surveillance, electrical engineering, informatics, magnetic recording, construction monitoring, automobile and aircraft industries, among other
