 Ferroic Materials and Heterostructures for Electronics and Data Storage

MRS Advances is accepting full-paper submissions on Electronic Devices and Materials topics related to the symposium topic Ferroic Materials and Heterostructures for Electronics and Data Storage from the 2020 MRS Spring Meeting. Submissions, the review process, and the final decision are not contingent on presentation at the meeting itself.

 MRS Advances publishes short papers that provide a “snapshot” of an advance within the field of materials research. Such work may include important early indications from a research project that has not yet reached a conclusion, or related results that are significant but not central to the goal of the project. The scientific methods and logic should be rigorous, technically sound, and of interest to other specialists in the area of research.

 Of particular interest are topics in Ferroic Materials and Heterostructures for Electronics and Data Storage:

• Magnetoelectric and multiferroic thin films and nanostructures
• Bulk magnetoelectric and multiferroic materials
• Topological defects in magnetoelectric and multiferroic materials
• Voltage control of magnetization switching and magnetic phase transitions
• Voltage control of chiral spin structures (skyrmions, vortices, chiral domain walls)
• Advanced imaging techniques for nanoferroic materials (scanning probe microscopy, STEM, X-ray based techniques)
• Ferroic nanomaterials for spintronics
• Ferroic nanomaterials for neuromorphic computing
• Ferroic nanomaterials for artificial intelligence
• Energy harvesting and sensing with ferroic materials
• Theory and Modeling of ferroic systems

Manuscript Submission:

To be considered for MRS Advances, new and previously unpublished results significant to the development of this field should be presented. The manuscripts must be submitted via the MRS Advances electronic submission system by December 16, 2020. All manuscripts will be reviewed in the standard rapid timeframe of MRS Advances to ensure timely publication in the issue related to the submission topic. Please see manuscript preparation instructions, length restrictions, and the required template for submission at www.mrs.org/mrs-advances-manuscript-instructions. At submission, indicate Electronic Devices and Materials as the topical area of your paper.
