Focus and Coverage

Microelectronics and Nanometer Structures: Processing, Measurement, and Phenomena
The Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology B is devoted to publishing reports of original research, letters and review articles on microelectronics and nanometer structures and devices including but not limited to

• Compound semiconductor electronics and optoelectronics
• Devices for energy conversion and storage
• Dielectrics in micro- and nanoelectronics
• Graphene, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes: materials & devices
• Group IV semiconductor microelectronics
• Lithography
• Microelectromechanical and nanoelectromechanical systems and devices (MEMS & NEMS)
• Nanometer science and technology
• Nanostructured materials and devices including nanowires, nanoparticles and quantum dots,
• Organic and molecular electronics
• Photovoltaics based on nanostructured materials, dye-sensitized and other excitonic solar cells
• Plasmonics
• Spintronics and magnetic devices
• Vacuum nanoelectronics

The emphasis is on processing, measurement and phenomena associated with micrometer and nanometer structures and devices. Processing may include vacuum processing, plasma processing and microlithography among others, while measurement refers to a wide range of materials and device characterization methods for understanding the physics and chemistry of submicron and nanometer structures and devices. JVST B is published six times annually (Jan/Feb, Mar/Apr, May/Jun, Jul/Aug, Sep/Oct, Nov/Dec) by the AVS through the American Institute of Physics (AIP).
