Scripta Materialia

Scripta Materialia is a peer reviewed, scientific "Letters" journal of Acta Materialia. As such, it is formatted for rapid publishing of short communications, which are original research articles in contrast to incremental research. In this regard the focus is on novel properties, or substantially improved properties of materials. Specific materials discussed are metals, ceramics and semiconductors at all length scales, and published research endeavors explore the functional or mechanical behavior of these materials. Articles tend to focus on the materials science and engineering aspects of discovery, characterization, development (including advances), structure, chemistry, theory, experiment, modeling, simulation, physics processes (thermodynamics, mechanics, etc.), synthesis, processing (production), mechanisms, and control.

Another function of Scripta Materialia is to publish comments on papers published in both Acta Materialia and Scripta Materialia. Furthermore, guest editors coordinate the section entitled "Viewpoint Sets" which are a set of invited short articles. The Coordinating Editor
