Special-Topic Collection on Frontiers in Nitride Semiconductors Research
Conference manuscripts for ICNS-15 can be submitted to Applied Physics Letters (APL), or Journal of Applied Physics (JAP), or AIP Advances (ADV). Accepted manuscripts will be collated in a joint Special-Topic Collection on Frontiers in Nitride Semiconductors Research. Articles will undergo regular peer review and will be handled by regular Associate Editors at APL, JAP, and ADV. This Special-Topic Collection will open in July 2025 and close in December 2025.
The Special Topic seeks manuscript submissions covering a broad range of aspects in the field of Nitride Semiconductors Research. We seek manuscripts which report on the latest achievements in nitride semiconductor materials, devices, and integrated circuits relevant for sustainable applications in power electronics, high-frequency electronics and photonics. The guest editors for this Special Topic will be Oliver Ambacher,Vanya Darakchieva,Izabella Grzegory, Åsa Haglund, Erik Lind, Piotr Perlin, Filip Tuomisto, Lars Samuelson, and Mathias Schubert as Associate Editor for APL.
All authors will be given the opportunity to choose which journal they would like to be included in this multi-journal collection: APL (short-form letters); JAP (comprehensive, long-form articles), and ADV (either format is acceptable). Papers that are deemed not appropriate for publication in APL and JAP by the editors can be considered for transfer to AIP Advances and still remain in the collection. JAP will also accept transfers from APL as the editors suggest.
Please note the following about APL, JAP, and ADV:
APL is a hybrid subscription journal. It is free to publish with APL’s traditional license. Authors can elect for open access publication in APL but must agree to pay an Article Processing Charge (APC) of $3800.
JAP is a hybrid subscription journal the same as APL, except it is part of AIP Publishing’s Subscribe to Open pilot. All submissions in 2025, even if published in 2026, will be made Open Access at NO CHARGE to authors.
ADV is a gold open access journal. Authors must pay an APC of $1800 to publish. There are limited discounts and waivers available for authors of certain countries. Those details can be found here:

Submission opening day for this Special Topic is July 14.
Submission must be done through the regular submission sites for APL, JAP, or ADV. During submission, the manuscript must be assigned to this Special Topic via a drop-down menu. Further instructions will follow soon as well.
