Functional Materials Letters is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal for original contributions to research on the synthesis, behavior and characterization of functional materials. The journal seeks to provide a rapid forum for the communication of novel research of high quality and with an interdisciplinary flavor. The journal is an ideal forum for communication amongst materials scientists and engineers, chemists and chemical engineers, and physicists in the dynamic fields associated with functional materials.
Functional materials are designed to make use of their natural or engineered functionalities to respond to changes in electrical and magnetic fields, physical and chemical environment, etc. These design considerations are fundamentally different to those relevant for structural materials and are the focus of this journal. Functional materials play an increasingly important role in the development of the field of materials science and engineering.

Topics

The scope of the journal covers theoretical and experimental studies of functional materials, characterization and new applications-related research on functional materials in macro-, micro- and nano-scale science and engineering. Among the topics covered are ferroelectric, multiferroic, ferromagnetic, magneto-optical, optoelectric, thermoelectric, energy conversion and energy storage, sustainable energy and shape memory materials.

Looking further ahead, the team at IOPP can create on online landing page for the Special Issue - example here - and work with the Guest Editor(s) to build the information on the page.

Once articles are submitted (via the journal’s ScholarOne system), our in-house peer review team will handle all items relating to peer review: initial selection of reviewers, invitations to review, and then follow-up with reviewers to ensure we receive the requisite 2 complete reviewer reports for each paper. For clarity, Guest Editors will not need to be involved directly in reviewing all articles. We will only need to approach the Guest Editors in specific cases, such as: to check to see that a reviewer is suitable to invite; to offer an adjudication (where reviewer reports offer a contrasting views on a paper e.g. one accept, one reject), and so forth. We can, of course, keep the Guest Editor(s) updated on the status of papers submitted to the Special Issue, as necessary.
