Dear ICNS-14 presenters,
Following a long row of successful
publications from previous meetings since
2002, physica status solidi is once
again planning to publish a special
issue highlighting the most exciting new
results presented at this year's
14th International Conference on
Nitride Semiconductors. The papers
will be divided among pss (RRL),
pss (a) and pss (b). This
will make your important works
available to a large international audience
quickly. In collaboration with the Guest
Editors and the Editorial Office we
cordially invite you to contribute a
Review, Perspective
(for plenary speakers) or Research
Article manuscript based on, or
related to your presentation.
The
physica status solidi journals are designed
to reach a broad audience. It is one of the
largest and well-established publication
platforms in solid state, applied, device
and materials physics – now over
60 years in business – and is widely
accessible via Open Access and as part of
many institutional site licenses, evidenced
by 1.4 million full-text article accesses
annually.
Submitted manuscripts will
undergo editorial evaluation and subsequent
peer review. According to
the editorial policy of pss, two
positive recommendations by independent
reviewers are a prerequisite of
acceptance. Peer review and publication
occur rapidly on individual manuscript
basis. Published in Wiley Online Library
Accepted Articles and
Early View shortly after
acceptance, your article is citable
with DOI or article number
immediately; hence there is no
waiting for the remainder of the
contributions. pss is a hybrid Open
Access (OA)/subscription journal family. The
OA option is compliant with national or
funder mandates, supported by an ever
increasing number of countries. Wiley has
now
OA agreements with several institutions in
Japan and worldwide. For more details
see
Wiley Author Services or
contact pss with questions. If your
institution or funder has no OA funds
available, you may publish at no
costs as subscription article with
Copyright Transfer Agreement. The visibility
of these articles has also been
significantly improved due to many
additional access licenses and
publish-and-read agreements. You may also
use green OA options, e.g. arXiv.org. When
all articles are complete, the topical
section will be assembled in regular monthly
issues of pss. The clustering of related
articles raises the visibility of these
articles significantly, and we are confident
that this will become a quality publication
reflected by high article access and
citation numbers. We look forward to
receiving your contributions!
