The Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids is a well-established international medium for publication of archival research in condensed matter and materials sciences. Areas of interest broadly include experimental and theoretical research on electronic, magnetic, spectroscopic and structural properties as well as the statistical mechanics and thermodynamics of materials. The focus is on gaining physical and chemical insight into the properties and potential applications of condensed matter systems.Within the broad scope of the journal, beyond regular contributions, the editors have identified submissions in the following areas of physics and chemistry of solids to be of special current interest to the journal:Low-dimensional systemsExotic states of quantum electron matter including topological phasesEnergy conversion and storageInterfaces, nanoparticles and catalystsFrom time-to-time, the journal publishes Special Issues containing collections of invited articles focused on topical or rapidly developing fields.
Physica C (Superconductivity and its Applications) publishes peer-reviewed papers on novel developments in the field of superconductivity, superfluidity and Bose-Einstein condensation. Topics include novel materials, theoretical models, emergent phenomena, devices and applications.The main goal of the journal is to publish:1. Papers that through experimental methods including synthesis, crystal growth and thin film growth, substantially increase the knowledge about superconductivity, superfluidity, Bose-Einstein condensation and the associated properties and phenomena.2. Papers that through theoretical and computational methods substantially deepen the understanding of the occurrence and phenomenology of superconductivity, superfluidity, Bose-Einstein condensation and associated properties and phenomena.3. Papers presenting novel superconducting devices, applications and methods leading to improvements in device performance.The editors of the journal will select papers that are well written and based on thorough research that provide truly novel insights.Regular Papers present original research according to the criteria described above.Reviews provide an authoritative review of the literature on a given subject, and are normally on invitation by the Editors. It can be written by a single author or by multiple authors, where at least one of the authors is a well-established expert on the subject of the review.Comments provide a critical analysis of previous publications by other authors. The text should focus on the scientific aspects and avoid polemics. This applies also to a Reply to a Comment. Where Physica C considers a Comment for publication it will invite the authors being commented on to submit a Reply.Keywords: BCS theory, bipolarons, Bose-Einstein condensate, flux creep, Ginzburg-Landau theory, Josephson coupling, order parameter, pairing mechanism, pairing symmetry, penetration depth, superconducting cable, superconducting gap, superconductivity phase diagram, superflow, superfluiditiy, transition temperature, vortices
Solid State Communications also welcomes full length original research articlesSolid State Communications publishes short communications and original research articles on significant developments in condensed matter science and materials physics, that emphasis original experimental and theoretical research on the physical and chemical properties of not only solids but also other condensed systems.The submission of manuscripts reporting research on the basic physics of materials and devices, as well as of state-of-the-art microstructures and nanostructures, is encouraged.A coherent quantitative treatment emphasizing new physics is expected rather than a simple accumulation of experimental and/or theoretical data.Consistent with these aims, the short communications should be kept concise and short, not longer than six printed pages. The number of figures and tables should also be kept to a minimum. Original research articles have no length restrictions.(Visit the Guide for Authors for more detailed information.)The Fast-Track section of Solid State Communications is the venue for very rapid publication of short communications on significant developments in condensed matter science and materials physics. The goal is to offer the broad condensed matter community quick and immediate access to publish recently completed papers in research areas that are rapidly evolving and in which there are developments with great potential impact.Keywords: condensed matter physics, materials physics, materials chemistry, materials science, electronic properties and devices, magnetism, superconductivity, microstructures, nanostructures
Synthetic Metals publishes research on the physics, chemistry and applications of organic and carbon electronic materials such as electronic polymers and electronic molecular materials including novel carbon architectures. The journal aims to advance the field of materials publishing articles which significant in the following areas:conducting and semiconducting polymers and molecular materialsfullerenes, carbon nanotubes, related novel carbon architectures and nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS)supramolecular conjugated architecturesnanoscale electronic molecular and electronic polymer materialsorganic charge-transfer compounds and metal chain compoundsfunctional pi-conjugated systemsorganic-inorganic electroactive hybrids including perovksitesmolecular- and polymer-based magnets and ferroelectricsThe journal publishes original research papers, short communications and reviews. Original research papers and short communications should present a significant advance in the understanding or application of these materials and/ or devices made from them. Experimental, theoretical and application papers on the chemistry, physics and engineering of these materials and their electrical, photonic and magnetic properties are encouraged for submission. Papers on electronic, optoelectronic, electroluminescent, lasing, solar cell, sensor, actuator, biological and other potential applications of these materials are also welcome.
