The Optoelectronics and Advanced Materials – Rapid Communications is co-edited by National Institute of Optoelectronics (INOE 2000) and National Institute of Material Physics (NIMP). It is a periodical which appears with 12 issues by year. The Rapid Communications is a letter journal associated to Journal of Optoelectronics and Advanced Materials. Optoelectronics and Advanced Materials – Rapid Communications (OAM – RC) is dedicated to rapid publishing of short communications, short technical notes, methodological notes, short papers and, in particular, breaking news in the field of optoelectronics, crystalline materials of relevance in optoelectronics, amorphous and glassy materials, nanostructured materials and functional materials. Short papers dealing with biomaterials and organic materials are accepted. The OAM-RC stimulates the research letters in the field of applications and theory related tov the most advanced materials for optoelectronics.

In the same time the OAM-RC stays at the interface of two domains (optoelectronics and advanced materials) very important for new emerging technologies based on the condensed matter.

The average interval between the reception of a submitted communication and its printing in the Journal (including posting on the web site) is 2 weeks.

Optoelectronics and Advanced Materials-Rapid Communications has been accepted for the following Thomson ISI products begining with volume 1(1) 2007:

Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCIE) including the Web of Science

ISI Alerting Service

Materials Science Citation Index (MSCI)
