Functional Materials Letters is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal for original contributions to research on the synthesis, behavior and characterization of functional materials. The journal seeks to provide a rapid forum for the communication of novel research of high quality and with an interdisciplinary flavor. The journal is an ideal forum for communication amongst materials scientists and engineers, chemists and chemical engineers, and physicists in the dynamic fields associated with functional materials.Functional materials are designed to make use of their natural or engineered functionalities to respond to changes in electrical and magnetic fields, physical and chemical environment, etc. These design considerations are fundamentally different to those relevant for structural materials and are the focus of this journal. Functional materials play an increasingly important role in the development of the field of materials science and engineering.The scope of the journal covers theoretical and experimental studies of functional materials, characterization and new applications-related research on functional materials in macro-, micro- and nano-scale science and engineering. Among the topics covered are ferroelectric, multiferroic, ferromagnetic, magneto-optical, optoelectric, thermoelectric, energy conversion and energy storage, sustainable energy and shape memory materials.

《功能材料快報》是一本國際同行評審的科學期刊，為功能材料的合成、行為和表征研究做出了最初的貢獻。該期刊旨在為高質量、跨學科的小說研究提供一個快速的交流平臺。該雜志是材料科學家和工程師、化學家和化學工程師以及與功能材料相關的動態領域的物理學家之間交流的理想論壇。功能材料的設計目的是利用其自然或工程功能來響應電場和磁場、物理和化學環境等的變化。這些設計考慮與結構材料的設計考慮有根本不同，是本雜志的重點。功能材料在材料科學和工程領域的發展中發揮著越來越重要的作用。該雜志的范圍涵蓋了功能材料的理論和實驗研究，功能材料在宏觀、微觀和納米科學和工程中的特性描述和新應用相關研究。所涉及的主題包括鐵電、多鐵、鐵磁、磁光、光電、熱電、能量轉換和儲能、可持續能源和形狀記憶材料。
