3. Journal of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering

Scope & Topics

Journal of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering (JBT) is being created as an international peer-reviewed journal that covers all aspects of biomaterials, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

The journal has been developed to create a new forum of scientific publications at the interface of biomaterials, tissue engineering and drug delivery research. JBT publishes original rapid communications, full research papers and timely state-of-the-art reviews (with author's photo and biography) encompassing the fundamental and applied research in the fields of biomaterials, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Rapid communications on new findings with breakthrough results will be considered for accelerated publication. The journal also publishes thematic special issues featuring selected peer-reviewed research papers from major conferences in the related disciplines.

Please do not submit the manuscript directly to Journal of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering
Manuscripts should be longer than 4 journal pages/paper

4. Thin Solid Films

Scope & Topics

Thin Solid Films is an international journal which serves scientists and engineers working in the fields of thin-film synthesis, characterization, and applications. The field of thin films, which can be defined as the confluence of materials science, surface science, and applied physics, has become an identifiable unified discipline of scientific endeavor.

• Accepted papers for ICMAP 2018 proceedings will be published in the online form of Virtual    Special Issue(VSI) with no hard copy version for faster processing.

VSI is an online-only grouping of Special Issue articles traditionally assigned to a single Special Issue. Each article in a VSI is assigned a unique identifier and then published in a regular journal issue as soon as available. The unique identifier allows us to simultaneously add the article to a VSI on ScienceDirect which is gradually built up as individual articles are published online. Articles grouped together in a VSI retain their original citation details.

On ScienceDirect, a VSI is listed alongside regular journal issues and is easily accessible and navigable. A VSI homepage includes a Guest Editor listing, table of contents and other data relevant to the VSI. A VSI speeds up the publication of individual articles as, unlike the publication process for conventional Special Issue articles, a VSI does not need to wait for the final article to be ready before publication. The benefits of VSIs include:

- Reduced overall publication times
- Reduced waiting time & increased author (of SI papers)
- Lower risk of error for incorrect publication of SI content due to increased flexibility for    moving/adding/removing items from VSIs, without affecting citation details

5. Plasma Science and Technology

Scope & Topics

Plasma Science and Technology (PST) journal assists in advancing plasma science and technology by reporting important, novel, helpful and thought-provoking progress in this strongly multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary field, in a timely manner. This field encompasses foundational plasma phenomena; low-temperature plasmas; magnetically confined plasmas; inertially confined plasmas; astrophysics and space plasmas; and interdisciplinary science of these; and the engineering and technology development and application from them.

PST journal began publication in December 1999, the journal is sponsored jointly by the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. The journal joined the Science Citation Index in 2003, the Engineering Index in 2006, and became published online by IOP Publishing Ltd. in 2006.  PST solicits strong manuscripts, as Letters, Articles, and Topical Reviews, to be referred to join a growing number of reports of increasing influence in this field.

Please prepare your manuscript according to standard Author Guide.

• Publication Fee: FREE

The submission deadline for PST is extended to September 30, 2018.

6. Plasma Research Express (PREX)

Scope & Topics

Authors are encouraged to submit scientific papers of the work presented in the ICMAP2018/APCPST2018/ISPB2018 to a new journal by Institute of Physics(IOP).

Representing a new addition to IOP's world-leading plasmas portfolio, Plasma Research Express (PREX) is a broad, multidisciplinary journal devoted to publishing new experimental and theoretical research covering all areas of fundamental, engineering and applied plasma science at low and high temperatures.

"Plasma Research Express is aimed at all plasma scientists, in all parts of the world and will build upon the world leading reputation IOP Publishing already has in plasma physics. Through the viewpoint of plasma science the journal's multidisciplinary coverage will reflect the complete breadth of how research in the field now intersects with the physics, astrophysics, materials, chemistry, biomedical and engineering communities.
