Most importantly, by eschewing postal and printing delays we promise extremely rapid publication. In a world of shrinking library budgets and rising journal costs, MIJ-NSR contributors are assured of universal access to their results in perpetuity. In addition to our role as a scientific journal, our embodiment as a Web Site permits us to offer additional services which no paper journal can match. You will find that the MIJ-NSR is a clearing house of nitride semiconductor information. When you visit our Site, you can check our Nitride Calendar for conferences and other special events, browse the latest research in our preprint server, keep up to date with special news bulletins and highlight summaries from the latest conferences, search our reference database, and link to related sites.
Contributors can make their papers available in both English and their native language.
We also plan to post comments and debate over MIJ-NSR papers and host discussion groups moderated by an expert in the area. The possibilities are exciting and daunting. We will be grateful for, and are in fact relying upon, a great deal of experimentation and feedback from the readership. Our Journalmaster, Eric Hellman, has made the information you need available via links from our main page.
