Micron
The International Research and Review Journal for MicroscopyMicron is an interdisciplinary forum for all work that involves new applications of microscopy or where advanced microscopy plays a central role. The journal publishes research papers on the design, methods, application, practice or theory of microscopy and microanalysis, including reports on light optical, electron-beam, X-ray microtomography, ion microscopy and scanning-probe imaging.It also carries review papers, short communications, thematic issues on contemporary developments in microscopy & microanalysis, as well as tutorial papers describing microscopy techniques for current practitioners or newcomers in the field. The journal embraces original research in which microscopy has contributed significantly to knowledge in biology, life science, nanoscience and nanotechnology, materials science and engineering.Authors are encouraged to contact one of the Editors directly to discuss Review or Tutorial proposals: https://www.journals... to authorsWe provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more. Please click here for more information on our author services.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support Center.Micron enables researchers to rapidly share their most exciting work with their colleagues. The expected time from submission to final decision is approximately 5 weeks.The journal does not have page limits, so supplementary text is unnecessary and should be avoided.Authors are encouraged to deposit supplementary materials during submission, e.g. videos and research data, in a relevant data repository such as Mendeley Data and cite and link to this dataset in their article. There are several ways you can share your data, which helps you get credit for your work and make your data accessible and discoverable for your peers. To deposit your data please follow the Research Data Guidelines.Note to the authorsNo changes in the list authors will be accepted during the review process or after acceptance unless such a claim is duly justified by the authors.- ISSN: 0968-4328
Materials Characterization
Materials Characterization features original articles and state-of-the-art reviews on theoretical and practical aspects of the structure and behaviour of materials. The Journal focuses on all characterization techniques, including all forms of microscopy (light, electron, acoustic, etc.,) and analysis (especially microanalysis and surface analytical techniques), and must include microstructural imaging. Developments in both this wide range of techniques and their application to the quantification of the microstructure of materials are essential facets of the Journal. While X-ray, spectroscopic, and mechanical behaviour measurements are all important aspects of characterization, they are not sufficient on their own to satisfy the scope of the journal. The Journal provides the Materials Scientist/Engineer with up-to-date information on many types of materials with an underlying theme of explaining the behavior of materials from a microstructural standpoint using novel and established characterization approaches. Materials covered by the journal include:1. Metals & Alloys2. Ceramics3. Biomedical materials (only metal or ceramic based)4. Composites (only metal or ceramic based)5. Nanomaterials with structural characterization as the focus of the workPlease note that not all topics or materials fall within the scope of Materials Characterization. Submissions focused on the topics listed below will not be considered for publication, potential alternative journals are indicated in brackets: i) layered bulk materials are included, but thin films are not (Thin Solid Films; Materials Science in Semiconductor Processing) ii) polymers or polymer composites (Elsevier polymer titles; Composites structures) iii) cementitious materials (Cement, Cement and Concrete Composites) iv) mechanical, electrical or other property measurements without any accompanying microstructural characterization (depending on the focus, please consider submitting to Corrosion Science; Wear; Materials Science & Engineering B; Materials & Design)v) computation, theory or analysis papers without an accompanying microstructural characterization component (Computational Materials Science; Materials Science & Engineering A; Materials Science & Engineering B; Materials Science & Engineering C)- ISSN: 1044-5803
