The American Chemical Society (ACS) Publications Division has released the inaugural issue of ACS Nano, a new, peer-reviewed journal publishing comprehensive articles in one of the fastest growing research areas in chemistry and the related sciences.
Led by Editor Paul S. Weiss, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Physics at The Pennsylvania State University, ACS Nano is an international forum for the rapid dissemination of multidisciplinary research that embraces the fields of chemistry, physics, materials science, biology, and engineering. With nanoscience and nanotechnology uniquely positioned at the interface of these disciplines, the journal facilitates communication among scientists, advances the field through publication of seminal results, aids in the development of new research opportunities and reaches out to scientists at all levels.
The debut issue of ACS Nano features articles from the research groups of David Allara, Ph.D., Hongjie Dai, Ph.D., Prashant Kamat, Ph.D. and Frank Caruso, Ph.D., along with a conversation with Nobel Laureate Heinrich Rohrer, Ph.D. and a special editorial by Paul Weiss, Ph.D. The journal also includes reviews, perspectives, letters to the Editor and updates on noteworthy developments through NanoFocus.
Published monthly in print and continuously online, ACS Nano is available at no charge on the Web at www.acsnano.org during 2007.
