Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The performance of microwave devices mainly depends on the properties of materials used in fabrication. Knowledge of material properties at microwave frequencies is a prerequisite to select suitable materials for various microwave applications and vice versa. Magnetic materials are one of most important categories of materials which are applied in a microwave regime. Bulk and nanomagnetic materials offer predominant applications in the soft and hard magnetic industries. Several microwave devices are being developed based on some magnetic parameters, such as magnetic permeability, magnetic loss, magnetization, coercivity, retentivity, etc. This Special Issue is aimed at the origin of magnetism and magnetic materials. In particular, this includes device applications such as microwave devices and magnetoresistance biosensors, etc. We expect all your research and reviews from areas of magnetism, physics, chemistry, materials science, especially interdisciplinary research combining different fields. Other related studies not mentioned above are also welcome.

Prof. Dr. Shandong Li
Guest Editor

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. Magnetochemistry 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 2200 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.

A novel technique to enhance the bandwidth of mobile phone antennas using YIG ferrite is proposed. The technique is applied in two slot antennas which are the proposed antenna and the reference antenna. The two antennas have the same shaped slot consisting of a rectangle connected to a circle etched on the ground plane. A ferrite slab is attached at the region near the circular slot on the ground plane of each antenna. The measured bandwidth of the proposed antenna with ferrite slab is enhanced to 0.669–1.533 and 1.69–5 GHz compared with the bandwidth of 0.81–1.44 and 2.3–5 GHz for the antenna without ferrite. The bandwidth of the reference antenna with ferrite slab is enhanced to 0.715–5 GHz compared with the bandwidth of 0.813–1.01, 1.11–1.3 and 2.33–5 GHz for the antenna without ferrite loading. The technique has the virtues of easy fabrication and low cost. Full article
