It will focus on the reliability of electronic, optical, and magnetic devices, and microsystems; the materials and processes used in the manufacture of these devices; and the interfaces and surfaces of these materials.
  • Microelectronic Engineering The scope of this Journal includes materials, methods and designs for microfabrication, processing and inspection for microelectronic and nanoelectronic elements.

  • Virtual Journal of Nanoscale Science & Technology  This weekly virtual journal contains articles that have appeared in one of the participating source journals and that fall within a number of contemporary topical areas in the science and technology of nanometer-scale structures. The articles are primarily those that have been published in the previous week; however, at the discretion of the editors older articles may also appear, particularly review articles.

  • Langmuir is devoted to reporting new and original experimental and theoretical research in the fields of colloids, surfaces, and interfaces. Coverage includes such topics as structure, properties, and reactivity of colloidal systems (micelles, vesicles, emulsions, gels, polymers, nanoparticles and surfactants), electrochemistry, imaging, forces and spectroscopy, films, biological colloids and interfaces, biopolymers, nanostructures, multicomponent systems, polymers, and materials (including crystal growth, nucleation, and liquid crystals).
  • Lab on a Chip is the premier journal dedicated to miniaturization and related research at the micro and nano scale.
  • Biosensors and Bioelectronics is the principal international journal devoted to research, design development and application of biosensors and bioelectronics.
  • Applied Optics is OSA's most widely read journal, a must for everyone in the optics field. Published three times each month, Applied Optics reports significant optics applications from optical testing and instrumentation to medical optics...from holography to optical neural networks...from lidar and remote sensing to laser materials processing.
  • Analytical Chemistry is a peer-reviewed research journal that explores the latest concepts in analytical measurements and the best new ways to increase accuracy, selectivity, sensitivity, and reproducibility.
  • Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, the essential new journal from IOP, will publish research involving the study and distillation of principles and functions found in biological systems that have been developed through evolution, and application of this knowledge to produce novel and exciting basic technologies and new approaches to solving scientific problems.
  • Nature is a weekly, international journal, publishing the finest research in all fields of science and technology on the basis of its originality, importance, interdisciplinary interest, timeliness, accessibility, elegance and surprising conclusions. Nature also provides rapid, authoritative, insightful and arresting news and interpretation of topical and coming trends affecting science, scientists and the wider public.
  • Integrative Biology is an inter- and multidisciplinary journal, utilising enabling quantitative technologies, both experimental and computational to characterise biological systems at the molecular and cellular levels through the exploitation of the convergence of biology with physics, chemistry, engineering, imaging and informatics.
  • Biofabrication focuses on using cells, proteins, biomaterials and/or other bioactive elements as building blocks to fabricate advanced biological models, medical therapeutic products and non-medical biological systems.
