Organisers
Materials Today opens in new tab/windowis dedicated to the creation and sharing of materials science knowledge and experience. Supported by Elsevier, we publish journals opens in new tab/window that provide authors and readers with comprehensive coverage across materials science, spanning ground breaking discoveries to highly specialized research; offering exceptional diversity, high quality peer review, rapid publication, maximum visibility and the widest choice.
Supporting publication
Diamond and Related Materials opens in new tab/window is a leading international journal that publishes new fundamental and applied research on all forms of diamond, the integration of diamond with other advanced materials and development of technologies exploiting diamond. The synthesis, characterization and processing of single crystal diamond, polycrystalline films, nanodiamond powders and heterostructures with other advanced materials are encouraged topics for technical and review articles. In addition to diamond, the journal publishes manuscripts on the synthesis, characterization and application of other related materials including diamond-like carbons, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and boron and carbon nitrides. Articles are sought on the chemical functionalization of diamond and related materials as well as their use in electrochemistry, energy storage and conversion, chemical and biological sensing, imaging, thermal management, photonic and quantum applications, electron emission and electronic devices.
‘How to be a reviewer’ for Diamond and Related Materials Would you like to be considered as a potential reviewer for Diamond and Related Materials? Please visit Elsevier for Reviewers opens in new tab/window for further information. Alternatively, please visit the Elsevier booth whilst onsite at the conference, where you will have an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
Special Issue
All presenters including invited speakers, oral, and poster presenters are invited to submit a paper for a Special Issue of Diamond and Related Materials. All manuscripts will be considered with the quality criteria of normal DRM submissions, undergoing a fast but strict double peer-review process.
Submissions are welcome through 31 December 2024. The Article Type will be VSI: ICDCM2024. To submit and learn more about the special issue visit the journal homepage opens in new tab/window
DRM publishing seminar
The Editor in Chief of Diamond and Related Materials (DRM) Ken Haenen and Elsevier Publisher Kayla Dos Santos will hold a workshop to provide key insights on how to get your work published and how to review for the journal DRM. Current trends in materials science publishing including ethical best practices will also be given, with time for Q&A at the end.
