Aims and Scope
The Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids is a well-established international medium for publication of archival research in condensed matter and materials sciences. Areas of interest broadly include experimental and theoretical research on electronic, magnetic, spectroscopic and structural properties as well as the statistical mechanics and thermodynamics of materials. The focus is on gaining physical and chemical insight into the properties and potential applications of condensed matter systems.

Within the broad scope of the journal, beyond regular contributions, the editors have identified submissions in the following areas of physics and chemistry of solids to be of special current interest to the journal:

Low-dimensional systems
Exotic states of quantum electron matter including topological phases
Energy conversion and storage
Interfaces, nanoparticles and catalysts.
Subject Area

CHEMISTRY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY

PHYSICS, CONDENSED MATTER

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
8.17: Submitted paper on the simulation of MoS2 nanocomposites as negative electrodes with the addition of phase fields.
8.20: Received article number from the editor.
8.23: Some minor issues need to be addressed and confirmed.
8.30: Under review.
9.5: Two reviewers, major revision required for data.
9.18: Revised.
9.20: Second reviewer provided minor comments.
9.21: Revised and accepted on the same day. The editor is Kosmas Prassides, an expert in condensed matter physics from Tohoku University in Japan. The whole process took a little over a month, which is faster than many top journals. It was indeed a pleasant surprise!

Submission in January.
Received review comments in March (review comments are not sent to email, they are generated on the website, remember to check them in a timely manner). The review comments from two reviewers are tricky.
Made revisions until the end of April, and three days later, the final version was online.
The journal is good, with no more than 500 articles per year.
