Micro & Nano Letters offers express online publication of short research papers containing the latest advances in miniature and ultraminiature structures and systems. With an average of six weeks to decision, and publication online in advance of each issue, Micro & Nano Letters offers a rapid route for the international dissemination of high quality research findings from both the micro and nano communities.

Scope

Micro & Nano Letters offers express online publication of short research papers containing the latest advances in micro and nano-scale science, engineering and technology, with at least one dimension ranging from micrometers to nanometers. Micro & Nano Letters offers readers high-quality original research from both the micro and nano communities, and the materials and devices communities.

Bridging this gap between materials science and micro and nano-scale devices, Micro & Nano Letters addresses issues in the disciplines of engineering, physical, chemical, and biological science. It places particular emphasis on cross-disciplinary activities and applications.

Typical topics include:

• Micro and nanostructures for the device communities
• MEMS and NEMS
• Modelling, simulation and realisation of micro and nanoscale structures, devices and systems validated by, or compared to, experimental data. Papers with no reference to experimental data will not be considered
• Synthesis and processing
• Micro and nano-photonics
• Molecular machines, circuits and self-assembly
• Organic and inorganic micro and nanostructures
• Micro and nano-fluidics
