A new Open Access journal is to be the home for the latest in high-quality, peer-reviewed research on diamond technology breakthroughs, following a new agreement between Taylor & Francis and scientific and technological enterprise Zhengzhou Research Institute for Abrasives & Grinding Co. Ltd.
Covering all aspects of diamond research, from the outset of their discovery to their usage across a multitude of disciplines such as healthcare and aerospace, Functional Diamond will publish high-impact papers on the latest technology innovations in diamond-based materials, structures and composites.
Launched on January 13, 2021, the journal will be a solely Open Access resource – meaning true accessibility for all readers worldwide, greater collaboration and reproducibility in the scientific field.
Dr Haitao Ye from the University of Leicester and Dr Meiyong Liao of the National Institute for Materials Science will lead Functional Diamond as Co-editors.
The functional application of diamond-based material in both academic and industrial fields is an important topic, to which institutions and companies from all over the world are highly devoted.
Functional Diamond will provide a platform to integrate all the avenues of research, development, and techniques involved in this field. Among its features will be fundamental insights and new diamond-based findings toward advanced functionality in the fields of physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, and engineering. This affects a vast range of areas such as in high voltage and high power electric transmission and converter, in biological and medical applications, in heat sinks for laser diodes and microwave power device, integrated circuit substrates, and in communication when designing faster and more compact devices.
