Intermetallics

including complex structural and functional alloys

The journal Intermetallics is a platform for publishing innovative research which advances our understanding of the interrelationships among the structure, properties, and functionality of advanced complex metallic alloys, specifically intermetallic compounds, metallic glasses, and high entropy alloys.

The journal reports the science and engineering of advanced metallic materials in the following aspects:

• Theories and experiments which address the relationship between properties and structure at all length scales;

• Physical modelling and numerical simulations which provide a comprehensive understanding of experimental observations;

• Methodologies to characterize the structure and chemistry of materials that correlate with properties;

• Technological applications resulting from the understanding of property-structure relationships in advanced metallic alloys;

• Novel and cutting-edge results warranting rapid communication.

• Special viewpoint issues on selected topics and review articles by invitation only.

The journal will not consider submissions on the following topics:

• Materials including Pb-free solders, thermoelectric materials, liquid alloys, traditional steels, magnesium or aluminum alloys;

• Synthesis or processing methods, including welding and joining, or studies of phase transformations without any discussion of ensuing material properties;

• CALPHAD, calculation, or simulation results (ab initio, molecular dynamics, etc.) without comparison to experimental observations.
