Scope of the Journal Chemistry of materials, particularly those associated with areas of advanced technology: the modelling of materials, their synthesis and structural characterisation, physicochemical aspects of their fabrication, properties and applications. Materials Inorganics: ceramics; layered materials; microporous solids and zeolites; silicates and synthetic minerals; biogenic minerals. Organics: organometallic precursors for thin filmskeramics; novel molecular solids and synthetic polymers with materials applications; polymer composites; biopolymers; biocompatible and biodegradable polymers; liquid crystals (both lyotropic and thermotropic); Langmuir- Blodgett films.Properties and Applications Electrical properties: semi-, metallic and super-conductivity; ionic conductivity; mixed ionidelectronic conductivity; ferro-, pyro- and piezo-electricity; electroceramics; dielectrics. Optical properties: luminescence, phosphorescence, laser action; non- linear optical effects; photoconductivity; photo- and electro-chromism, resists, glasses, amorphous semiconductors; optical modulation and switching. Magnetic properties: ferro-, ferri- and antiferro-magnetism, spin glass behaviour, organic magnetism, magnetic bubbles and information storage.Chemical properties: ion exchange, molecular separation, catalytic action, sensor action, topochemical control of reactions. Structural properties: structural ceramics, refractories; hard materials; protective coatings; composites, adhesives, prosthetic applications. Thermodynamic properties and phase behauiour Articles Full papers contain original scientific work that has not been published previously. However, work that has appeared in print in a short form such as a Materials Chemistry Communication or Chemical Communication is normally acceptable. But note that the Society strongly discourages the fragmentation of a substantial body of work into a number of short publications.Papers should be typewritten in double spacing on one side only of the paper. Four copies of text, illustrations (full colour copies for coloured figuredplates), tables and any other matter should be sent to: The Managing Editor, Journal of Materials Chemistry, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Thomas Graham House, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 4WF, UK All authors submitting work for publication are required to sign an exclusive copyright license. All submissions should be accompanied by a completed form (a blank one for photocopying is reproduced at the end of these instructions), without which publication cannot proceed. Feature Articles Feature Articles are published by invitation of the Materials Chemistry Editorial Board.Materials Chemistry Communications Materials Chemistry Communications contain novel scientific work in short form and of such importance that rapid publication is desirable. Authors should briefly indicate in a covering letter the reasons why they feel that publication of their work as a Communication is justified. The total length is normally restricted to two printed A4 pages. However, special consideration will be given to papers containing a large amount of essential diagrammatic material. Submission of a Materials Chemistry Communication can be made either to the Managing Editor, Journal of Materials Chemistry, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Thomas Graham House, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 4WF, UK or via a member of the International Advisory Editorial Board.In the latter case, the top copy of the manuscript including any figures etc., together with the name of the person to whom the Communication is being submitted, should be sent simultaneously to the Managing Editor at the Cambridge address. Authors may wish to contact the Board member to ensure that he is available to arrange review of the manuscript within reasonable time. Administration Receipt of a paper will be acknowledged, and the paper will be given a reference number which authors are asked to quote on all their subsequent correspondence. If no such acknowledgement has been received after a reasonable period of time authors should check with the Editorial Office as to whether the paper or the acknowledgement has gone astray.Editorial Policy. Every paper (except Communications) will be submitted to at least two referees, by whose advice the Materials Editorial Board will be guided as to its acceptability. Full details are given in Refereeing Procedure and Policy, J. Mater. Chem., 1996, Issue 1. Papers that are accepted must not be published elsewhere except by permission of the Royal Society of Chemistry. Submission of a manuscript will be regarded as an undertaking that the same material is not being considered for publication by another journal. Conditions governing acceptance are available from the Editorial Office. Copyright. The whole of the literary matter (including tables, figures, diagrams and photographs) in Journal of Materials Chemistry is subject to copyright and may not be reproduced without permission from The Royal Society of Chemistry and such other owner of the copyright as may be indicated. Reprints.Fifty reprints of each paper are supplied free of charge on request. Notes on the Preparation of Papers 1. Manuscripts must by typed in double-line spacing, single sided on A4 paper, with margins at top, bottom and left-hand side of at least 4 cm. 2. The first page should be set out as follows: (i) Name and address of the author to whom the proofs and correspondence should be sent. (ii) Title of the paper, with a capital initial letter only. (iii) Authors’ names, including one forename for each author.(iv) The address where the work was carried out; if this is different from the current address of any author wishing to deal with correspondence a footnote indicating the present address of this author should be included. (v) Abstract, followed by a horizontal line, and typed in double- line spacing. (iii) 3. Suitable headings and sub-headings should be used in the main text as appropriate (except for Communications in which no headings are used). 4. References should be numbered serially in the text by means of superscript arabic numerals. 5. Bibliographic references (not footnotes) should follow the main text and should have the following format: 1 R.M. Barrer and R.J.B. Craven, J.Chem. Soc., Faraday Trans. 1, 1987,83,779. 2 R.M. Barrer and R.J.B. Craven, in New Developments in Zeolite Science and Technology, ed. Y. Murakame, A. Iijima and J.W. Ward, Kodansha, Tokyo, 1986, p.521. 6. Journal titles should be abbreviated according to the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI). 7. Tables should be typed on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. 8. Diagrams should be accompanied by a separately typed set of captions. Extensive identifying lettering should be placed in the captions rather than on the figures. Original artwork should be supplied wherever possible. Colour photographs will be accepted subject to approval by the referees. 9. Bulk information (such as primary kinetic data, computer programs and output, etc) which accompanies papers published in Journal of Materials Chemistry may be deposited, free of charge, with the Society’s Supplementary Publications Scheme, either at the request of the author and with the approval of the referees or on the recommendation of the referees with the approval of the author.Details are available from the Editorial Office. Crystallographic Papers Crystallographic work will be assessed mainly for its relevance to materials. Papers reporting only the results of crystal structure determination may be accepted for publication provided they are for materials with potentially interesting properties. Crystallographic work that forms parts of a wider study, including synthesis or property measurements, should not normally be submitted for publication separately from the results of that study. Papers containing new crystal data should normally make explicit mention of this in the title.The description of a crystallographic structure determination should be as brief as possible; in particular, it is not the policy of the journal to publish lengthy data tables. For publication as part of their papers authors should include: a table of key bond lengths and angles and a conventional line drawing of the structure. Additional data should be submitted as supplementary material for use by the referees and eventual deposition. Authors are encouraged to submit this material via electronic mail. The preferred format is the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) but other formats will also be accepted.The submissions must be made to MATERIALS@RSC.ORG. Authors should combine multiple data sets for a given manuscript into a single file. This will minimize the chance that files will be misplaced or associated with the wrong manuscript. The individual structures in the combined file must be It#separated from each other by the sequence === END” at the beginning of a line. Authors must identify which manuscript the electronic file is associated with when they send the file to the Editorial Office by entering the name of the manuscript at the top of the electronic file. The information required for deposition includes: (1) An electronic abstract form for each crystallographic determination.This is available from the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) either by e-mail (to filesel-v@chemcrys.cam.ac.ukwith the one-line message sendme depform) or via the World Wide Web (connect to the CCDC Home Page; the URL is http://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uW;the form can be saved as a simple text file). Graphical Abstracts A graphical abstract should accompany each submission (a template for photocopying appears in Issue 1). Authors are strongly encouraged to use diagrams or formulae only; the use of text will be allowed only when there is no alternative. Nomenclature Current IUPAC nomenclature and symbolism should be used. Attention is drawn to the following publications in which the rules themselves and guidance on their use are given: Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry, Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford, 1990.Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry, Pergamon, Oxford, 1979 edn. A Guide to IUPAC Nomenclature of Organic Compounds, Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford 1993. Biochemical Nomenclature and Related Documents, Portland Press, London, 1992. Compendium of Chemical Technology: IUPAC Recommendations, Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford, 1987. Units and Symbols The recommendations of IUPAC should be followed. Their basis is the Systbme Internationale d’Unit6s (SI). A detailed treatment is given in the so-called Green Book: Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry, Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford, 1993 edn.(2) A table of final fractional atomic coordinates. (3)Any calculated coordinates (e.g. hydrogen). (4) A full list of bond lengths and angles with estimated standard deviations. (5) A full list of displacement parameters in the form Boor U, (in Az or pm2). Tables of structure factors (F,,, FJ should not be sent, but copies should be retained by the authors so that they may be made available to the referees via the Editorial Office if requested. Until the e-mail link is fully tested two hard copies of items 1-5 above should be included with the paper at the time of submission. The supplementary material will be deposited at the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre, 12 Union Road, Cambridge CB2 lEZ, once the paper has been accepted.Full details regarding presentation of crystallographic work can be obtained from the Editorial Office. Powder Data Powder X-ray diffraction data may be published, preferably in tabular form, but should be restricted to studies of new materials; also, for cases where the materials are new but have similar powder data to other, well characterized, materials, such data will not usually be included in the journal. However, for the purposes of refereeing, a full data set in tabular form should be submitted as supplementary material, simultaneously with the paper; this material will subsequently be deposited with the Society’s Supplementary Publications Scheme (details available from the Editorial Office). Diagrams showing diffraction patterns of reaction products will not normally be included in the journal, unless they have some distinct feature of particular relevance to the discussion.Paper Number: ...........................................................
