The Institute of Electronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IECAS) and the Natural Publishing Group (NPG) signed an agreement on co-publishing Microsystems & Nanoengineering on May 28 to create a journal with leading international academic influence in the fields of microsystems and nanoengineering.
IECAS director WU Yirong acts as editor-in-chief of Microsystems & Nanoengineering, and Prof. CUI Tianhong at the University of Minnesota acts as executive editor-in-chief.
The journal will be freely accessible online, and officially go live on nature.com in March, 2015. Submissions will begin in the second half of 2014, mainly accepting original papers and overviews focusing on the latest research progress in the field of Micro and Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS). Reports will mainly cover the designs of micro and nano devices and systems (theory, modeling and simulation), advanced manufacture, testing technology, reliability and new applications, nanoengineering technology, etc.
Microsystems & Nanoengineering will play a crucial role in increasing the influence and voice of China in MEMS/NEMS, as well as developing technological innovative impetus and the cultural soft power of China.
NPG is an internationally renowned publisher. There are currently 64 NPG academic publications which are authoritative journals with leading influence in their related areas, represented by Nature.
