Journal of Applied Physics (JAP)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Applied Physics is one of the oldest and most respected journals in the applied physics community, first established in 1931 as Physics and later continued under its present name after being acquired by the American Institute of Physics. It is published weekly by AIP Publishing, serving a global audience of physicists, engineers, and materials scientists. The journal focuses on high-quality original research that contributes to both foundational physics and practical technology development. Topics span the physical mechanisms behind electronic, optical, magnetic, and structural behaviors of materials and devices; phenomena at micro- and nano-scales; characterization techniques; and theoretical models that link physical insights with engineered systems. The breadth of content makes it a core reference for researchers seeking to apply physical principles to solve current challenges in semiconductors, photonics, quantum materials, energy systems, sensors, and more. By publishing on a weekly schedule, the journal accelerates the communication of significant advances and emerging ideas. Regular articles include full research papers, methods, and perspectives that collectively shape the evolving landscape of applied physics research worldwide.
