physica status solidi RRL – Rapid Research Letters

physica status solidi RRL – Rapid Research Letters is the latest member of Wiley-VCHs renowned journals cluster physica status solidi.

The journal’s mission is the ultra-rapid publication of new, important and peer-reviewed results in all fields of solid state physics, materials science, and interdisciplinary areas, from basic science to applications and devices. It will focus on findings with a high degree of novelty as well as other results of immediate interest to the scientific community.

As explained by the Editor-in-Chief Martin Stutzmann, "the main asset of pss RRL is the so far unchallenged speed. On the average, only two weeks are needed between the electronic submission of a manuscript and its online appearance on Wiley InterScience. The particular advantage of fast publication without compromising on the quality of a transparent and strict review process has already been recognized by active scientists from all over the world." The Editor-in-Chief is supported by a global team of distinguished Editorial Board members, among them Shuit-Tong Lee, Hong Kong; John Robertson, Cambridge; Michael S. Shur, Troy; James S. Speck, Santa Barbara; and Christian Thomsen, Berlin.
