JPhys Materials, a journal focusing on interdisciplinary research marrying chemical, physical and engineering aspects of materials study, has published its first issue.
The new IOP Publishing journal showcases the most significant and exciting developments in materials science research, all of which are published open access to encourage maximum collaboration, reproducibility and dissemination of research.
In the first issue of JPhys Materials, a team from Imperial College London, the National Physical Laboratory (UK), and the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (Saudi Arabia) investigate using adhesion lithography (a-Lith) for the development of nano-gap organic light emitting diodes on a variety of substrates including glass and plastic.
They suggest a-Lith offers excellent compatibility with different substrate materials including temperature sensitive and flexible plastic substrates, and expect the work to pave the way to a wide range of applications in the emerging fields of large-area, nanoelectronics.
JPhys Materials is led by Editor-in-Chief Professor Stephan Roche, from the Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA) and the Catalan Institute of Nanosciences and Nanotechnology (ICN2).
The journal's coverage will extend across: Materials characterisation; Materials properties; Computational materials science and modelling; Materials applications; and Synthesis and fabrication.
