Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The electromagnetic (EM) properties of materials and the related nondestructive testing methods have for many years increasingly attracted the attention of industry engineers and scientists. We are currently observing the intense work carried out in research and development centers around the world on new composite materials, steel and polymer structures, or artificial (engineered) materials with unusual electromagnetic properties. New structures, as well as traditional ones, are finding more and more diverse applications and creating the possibility of constructing new electromagnetic devices, especially in wave problems (microwave, terahertz, IR, and visible frequency bands). This leads to the need to determine and test the electric and magnetic properties of the developed structures, as well as to test their continuity and detect possible inhomogeneity in a wide frequency range—from static fields to the ultraviolet band.
This Special Issue is devoted to advances in electromagnetic properties of materials in the wide frequency range (DC, low frequency, microwave, terahertz, IR). It refers to broad topics considering new structures, models, measuring concepts and systems, transducers, influence of external phenomena on electromagnetic properties, error and distortion analysis, and elimination of their sources in EM properties’ estimation.
This Special Issue will also focus on various methods of electromagnetic nondestructive testing, including well-established AC-magnetization-based methods, eddy current, microwave, terahertz methods, IR thermography, and slightly less common, but very valuable techniques such as dielectric spectroscopy, ferromagnetic resonance, and others.
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
