Journal of Applied Physics reports significant new experimental and theoretical results in applied physics research. Topics include materials physics, magnetism, applied biophysics, devices and sensors, nanoscale systems, surfaces and interfaces.
There has been significant investment by NASA, DoD, industry, and private investment to proliferate the flight of high-power electric propulsion (EP) systems. These systems ionize the propellant on the spacecraft…
To highlight the astounding work of early career principal investigators, Journal of Applied Physics is proud to continue the Early Career Investigator Selection in 2025. All 2025 publications with eligible…
Orbitronics devices promise several benefits as compared to conventional charge and spin electronics thanks to fundamental properties of dynamical orbital processes in solids. The goal of this collection is to…
Group-III nitride semiconductors have wide and ultra-wide band gaps suited for a vital role in enabling electrification, sustainable energy and digitalization. The high breakdown field of such semiconductors make possible…
Over the past few decades, terahertz (THz) spectroscopy has become a powerful tool for unlocking unique physical phenomena in a broad spectrum of materials, from bulk semiconductors and inorganic nanomaterials…
While until recently Hermiticity has been a key aspect of pure quantum mechanics, now experimental advances in controlling dissipation yielded the ability to create designer materials that can be described…
We are excited to announce a publishing opportunity for SES 2025 presenters in a Special Topic issue of the Journal of Applied Physics (JAP), focused on advances in applied mechanics…
Grain boundaries and free surfaces play a critical role in defect behavior, particularly at the micro- and nano-scale where interface effects are pronounced. This Special Topic highlights recent advances in…
