Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multiple valence magnetic materials have been of interest in recent years, especially for their capacity to form diverse structures with various compositions showing a wide variety of properties. The key element of this Special Issue of Applied Sciences is to correlate the electronic properties (magnetic, oxygen ionic conductivity, electronic transport, and thermal expansion, even those potentially catalytic) of new multivalent magnetic materials processed by different routes with their structures, site occupation, valence, and spin states as well as the level of determined stoichiometry of new compounds. Using unconventional processing, as well as various substitutions involving different valence states, can generate new occupancy by pairs of ions and/or novel and unexpected behaviors which may have a strong impact on the development of modern materials. A major contribution to select the optimum conditions for synthesis will be provided by complex thermo-kinetic analysis. Information about optimal parameters (e.g., temperature, the reaction atmosphere, heating rate for an accurate processing reaction, activation energies, thermokinetic mechanisms) will be used to approach the problems of predictions and/or optimization of processing routes more in depth.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Magnetochemistry.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
