Liquid Crystals

Journal Title：Liquid Crystals

Liquid Crystals is an academic journal focused on the field of liquid crystal science and technology, providing a platform for researchers to publish original research reports on the molecular design, synthesis, and aspects of liquid crystals from basic science to applied engineering. The journal covers the supramolecular organization and self-assembly of liquid crystals, which are central to liquid crystal research and are essential for understanding the properties of liquid crystal materials and developing new applications.

The journal pays special attention to the diversity of liquid crystal materials, including but not limited to thermotropic, lyotropic, and interfacial liquid crystals, as well as chiral and ferroelectric liquid crystals with special properties. In addition, the journal also covers polymer liquid crystals, micro/nano composite materials and other new liquid crystal systems, which have a wide range of applications in modern science and technology. The journal encourages a combination of experimental and theoretical research to promote a deeper understanding of the physical properties of liquid crystals, phase transition behavior, intermolecular interactions, and responsiveness to external stimuli such as electric and magnetic fields. These studies not only help to reveal the internal scientific principles of liquid crystals, but also provide a theoretical basis for designing new liquid crystal materials and devices.

《液晶》是一本专注于液晶科学与技术领域的学术期刊，它为研究人员提供了一个发表原创研究报告的平台，这些报告涉及液晶的分子设计、合成以及从基础科学到应用工程的各个方面。期刊涵盖了液晶的超分子组织和自组装现象，这是液晶研究中的核心内容，对于理解液晶材料的性质和开发新的应用至关重要。

该期刊特别关注液晶材料的多样性，包括但不限于热致性、溶致性、界面性液晶，以及具有特殊性质的手性、铁电性液晶。此外，期刊还涵盖了聚合物液晶、微/纳米复合材料等新型液晶系统，这些系统在现代科技领域有着广泛的应用前景。期刊鼓励实验和理论研究的结合，促进对液晶物理性质、相变行为、分子间相互作用以及在电场、磁场等外界刺激下响应性的深入理解。这些研究不仅有助于揭示液晶的内在科学原理，也为设计新型液晶材料和器件提供了理论基础。

Liquid Crystals创刊于1986年，由Taylor and Francis Ltd.出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖化学 - 晶体学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度 约3.0个月 ，影响因子指数2.4，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
