Journal of Electronic Materials
http://www.springerlink.com/content/0361-5235/
The Journal of Electronic Materials reports on the science and technology of electronic materials, while examining new applications for semiconductors, magnetic alloys, insulators, and optical and display materials. It strives to publish papers of interest to both non-specialists and specialists in the electronic materials field. The journal contains technical papers detailing critical new developments in the electronics field, as well as invited and contributed review papers on topics of current interest. There are four types of papers published in JEM:
* Regular issue papers deal with new and original work
* Letters are research papers
* Reviews are lengthy papers that cover a certain area of research
* Special Issue papers are so designated when ten or more papers on new and original research on the same topic are presented in the same issue; special section papers include six to nine papers concerned with research on the same topic.
JEM regularly reports on the science and technology of electronic materials, while examining new applications for semiconductors, magnetic alloys, insulators, and optical and display materials. The journal welcomes articles on methods for preparing and evaluating the chemical, physical, and electronic properties of these materials. Specific areas of interest are electronic memory and logic structures, magnetic-optical recording media, superlattices, packaging, detectors, emitters, metallization technology, superconductors, and low thermal-budget processing. The journal also selectively publishes invited and contributed review papers on topics of current interest to enable individuals in the field of electronics to keep breast of activities in areas peripheral to their own. Further, JEM publishes selected papers from conferences sponsored by the TMS Electronic, Magnetics & Photonic Materials Committee (e.g. the Electronic Materials Conference). It is the journal’s editorial intent that the published papers be of interest to nonspecialists and specialists in the field of the particular contribution.
