Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Materials and Devices is published by Collaborating Academics IP. By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Ferroelectric and Piezoelectric Materials, Multiferroics and related materials and Solid-state spectroscopy and crystallography, together about 39.5% of its articles. Its main subfields are Materials Chemistry. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
The topics covered by the journal are wide, MATERIALS AND DEVICES aims at publishing papers on : - all aspects related to materials, namely according to their chemical formula (oxides, fluorides, carbon compounds, …, organic, inorganic), to their physical properties (conductors, super-conductors, semi-conductors, insulators, dielectrics,...), to their nature (crystalline or amorphous materials, liquid crystals, modulated systems, aperiodic materials, nanomaterials and nanostructured materials)… or environmental type (ecomaterials), or according to some specific applications. Papers on biomaterials, geomaterials, archeomaterials or on studies of ancient materials are also welcome. A particular attention is also paid on environmental studies related with materials. Authors are also encouraged to submit papers on theoretical studies applied to materials, including pure mathematical approaches, physical approaches, models, numerical simulations, etc.- devices in a wide sense. concerning Devices, the scope is restricted to those integrating particular materials (for instance memories based on some specific magnetic materials) or category of materials. Papers on all types of such devices are welcome.
