Aims and Scope | |||
Journal of Spintronics and Magnetic Nanomaterials (JSM) is an international multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal reporting research on the synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications of a wide range of magnetic materials and phenomena. Its scope extends from physical sciences to engineering to technological areas such as electronics, telecommunications, computer sciences, medicine, health science, etc. JSM is dedicated to report the latest advances in the fields of spintronics and magnetic materials research. The journal aims to report research on advanced magnetic materials with interesting electronic, magnetic, and optical and other related properties. A broad spectrum of the research topics on different kinds of magnetic materials is covered. JSM is as one of the first periodicals devoted to the exciting field of spintronics, which is playing a fundamental role in the novel technological developments based on the new spin torque transfer phenomena, different effects and responses in this scientific area. |
