Aims & Scope

Aims

NEXUS Journal of Materials Science (NEXUS J. Mater. Sci.) is an open access, peer-reviewed journal published by NEXUS Scholarly Press. It provides a rigorous, transparent and fast home for high-quality research in materials science, and welcomes interdisciplinary work that connects the field with others across materials science and the wider NEXUS family.

Scope

Structure–property–processing relationships across metals, ceramics, semiconductors, polymers and composites, including computational materials science. Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Structure–property–processing relationships across metals
  • Ceramics
  • Semiconductors
  • Polymers
  • Composites
  • Including computational materials science

We publish theoretical, experimental, computational and translational studies, as well as methods, datasets and negative results that are of value to the community.
