Aims & Scope

Materials Technology: Advanced Performance Materials provides an international medium for the communication of progress in the field of functional materials (advanced materials in which composition, structure and surface are functionalised to confer specific, applications-oriented properties). The focus is on materials for biomedical, electronic, photonic and energy applications. Contributions should address the physical, chemical, or engineering sciences that underpin the design and application of these materials. The scientific and engineering aspects may include processing and structural characterisation from the micro- to nanoscale to achieve specific functionality.
