Journal of Advanced Dielectrics Vol. 1, No. 1

The�Journal of Advanced Dielectrics�is an international peer-reviewed journal for original contributions on the understanding and applications of dielectrics in modern electronic devices and systems. The journal seeks to provide an interdisciplinary forum for the rapid communication of novel research of high quality in, but not limited to, the following topics:
Fundamentals of dielectrics�(ab initio or first-principles calculations, density functional theory, phenomenological approaches).
Polarization and related phenomena�(spontaneous polarization, domain structure, polarization reversal).
Dielectric relaxation�(universal relaxation law, relaxor ferroelectrics, giant permittivity, flexoelectric effect).
Ferroelectric materials and devices�(single crystals and ceramics).
Thin/thick films and devices�(ferroelectric memory devices, capacitors).
Piezoelectric materials and applications�(lead-based piezo-ceramics and crystals, lead-free piezoelectrics).
Pyroelectric materials and devices
Multiferroics�(single phase multiferroics, composite ferromagnetic ferroelectric materials).
Electrooptic and photonic materials.
Energy harvesting and storage materials�(polymer, composite, super-capacitor).
Phase transitions and structural characterizations.
Microwave and milimeterwave dielectrics.
Nanostructure, size effects and characterizations.
Engineering dielectrics for high voltage applications�(insulation, electrical breakdown).
Modeling�(microstructure evolution and microstructure-property relationships, multiscale modeling of dielectrics).
