Journal of Ovonic Research

Aims & Scope

JOR welcomes papers from any area of materials science related to ovonic materials, chalcogenides, nanostructured alloys, amorphous silicon, germanium, carbon, and their doped or alloyed forms, as long as there is a clear link to applications in electronics, optoelectronics, or photonics. Papers should contribute to the understanding or development of advanced materials for memory devices, smart materials, or renewable energy applications. We welcome rigorous research using any method, including experimental, computational, characterization, or review approaches. We are globally inclusive and encourage authors to contextualize their work. The scope includes, but is not limited to: - Ovonic (mainly chalcogenide) materials for memories; - Smart materials based on ovonic materials (combinations of various elements including chalcogenides); - Nanostructured materials based on various alloys; - Semiconducting materials and alloys based on amorphous silicon, germanium, and carbon in their various nanostructured forms; - Minerals with possible applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and photonics; - Alternative and renewable energy sources; - Applications of nanomaterials in various devices.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
