Nature Materials

Journal Title：Nature Materials

Nature Materials is a monthly multi-disciplinary journal aimed at bringing together cutting-edge research across the entire spectrum of materials science and engineering. Materials research is a diverse and fast-growing discipline, which has moved from a largely applied, engineering focus to a position where it has an increasing impact on other classical disciplines such as physics, chemistry and biology. Nature Materials covers all applied and fundamental aspects of the synthesis/processing, structure/composition, properties and performance of materials, where "materials" are identified as substances in the condensed states (liquid, solid, colloidal) designed or manipulated for technological ends.

Nature Materials provides a forum for the development of a common identity among materials scientists while encouraging researchers to cross established subdisciplinary divides. To achieve this, and strengthen the cohesion of the community, the journal takes an interdisciplinary, integrated and balanced approach to all areas of materials research while fostering the exchange of ideas between scientists involved in the different disciplines. Nature Materials is an invaluable resource for all scientists, in both academia and industry, who are active in the process of discovering and developing materials and materials-related concepts.

Nature Materials offers an engaging, informative and accessible product including papers of exceptional significance and quality in a discipline which promises to have great influence on the development of society in years to come.

Nature Materials 是月刊多学科期刊，旨在汇集材料科学和工程领域的前沿研究。材料研究是一门多样化且快速发展的学科，它已经从一个广泛应用的工程重点转向对物理、化学和生物学等其他经典学科产生越来越大影响的位置。 Nature Materials 涵盖材料的合成/加工、结构/组成、特性和性能的所有应用和基本方面，其中“材料”被确定为为技术目的而设计或操作的凝聚态（液体、固体、胶体）物质。

Nature Materials 为材料科学家之间的共同身份发展提供了一个论坛，同时鼓励研究人员跨越既定的子学科鸿沟。为了实现这一目标，并加强社区的凝聚力，该杂志对材料研究的所有领域采取跨学科、综合和平衡的方法，同时促进不同学科科学家之间的思想交流。 Nature Materials 对于学术界和工业界的所有科学家来说都是宝贵的资源，他们积极参与发现和开发材料和材料相关概念的过程。

Nature Materials 提供了一种引人入胜、信息丰富且易于使用的产品，包括具有非凡意义和质量的论文，该学科有望在未来几年对社会发展产生重大影响。
