The Publications Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) has announced the addition of ACS Materials Letters to its portfolio of journals, responding to the needs of the ever-expanding and fast-paced global research community focused on materials science. ACS Materials Letters will serve as a forum for the rapid publication of high-quality and important contributions on the forefront of fundamental and applied research at the interface between materials and other disciplines, including chemistry, engineering and biology.
Dr. Bin Liu, provost's chair professor and head of the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering at National University of Singapore, will serve as the inaugural deputy editor for ACS Materials Letters. Liu is an expert on the development of organic functional materials for energy, environmental and biomedical applications. Dr. Jillian Buriak, editor-in-chief of Chemistry of Materials, professor of chemistry and Canada research chair of nanomaterials at the University of Alberta, will serve as the ACS Materials Letters editor-in-chief.
The launch of ACS Materials Letters benefits from the proven success of its sister journal, Chemistry of Materials, which works to serve the materials community as the premier venue for the highest-quality publications in the area.
ACS Materials Letters will begin accepting submissions in early February, with its first articles and issues appearing online a few months thereafter. The journal will be dedicated to publishing the most-transformative materials research with very fast processing times.
