physica status solidi (a) Special Issues
Forthcoming Special Issues
Advancing Semiconductor Technologies/EMRS 2025
On the occasion of the E-MRS Fall Meeting 2025, the Symposia Q, V and R organisers are kindly inviting the symposia participants to contribute you to contribute a Review, Perspective (for invited speakers) or Research Articles manuscript based on, or related to your E-MRS presentation (no conference proceedings). Once all contributions will be published, they will all be gathered together for a Special Issue/Collection released in the journal physica status solidi (a).
Please have a look at the Call for Papers.
Deadline: December 31, 2025.
Published Special Issues
Please find below previous special projects published in physica status solidi (a) since 2021 — consisting of Special Issues/Special Sections on current research topics or related to a conference, and issues dedicated to meritorious scientists on the occasion of their anniversaries.
