《自然材料》是一本多学科月刊，旨在汇集材料科学和工程领域的前沿研究。材料研究是一门多元化、快速发展的学科，它已从一个主要应用于工程的学科，发展到对物理、化学和生物学等其他经典学科产生越来越大影响的地位。自然材料包括合成/加工、结构/组成、性质和性能的所有应用和基本方面，其中“材料”被确定为为技术目的而设计或操纵的凝聚态(液体、固体、胶体)物质。自然材料为材料科学家提供了一个发展共同身份的论坛，同时鼓励研究人员跨越既定的学科分支。为了实现这一目标，并加强社区的凝聚力，该杂志对材料研究的所有领域采取跨学科、综合和平衡的方法，同时促进不同学科的科学家之间的思想交流。自然材料是一个宝贵的资源，为所有科学家，无论是学术界和工业界，谁是积极发现和发展过程中的材料和材料相关的概念。《自然材料》提供了一种吸引人的、信息量大的、可获得的产品，包括在未来几年有望对社会发展产生重大影响的一门学科中具有特殊意义和质量的论文。该杂志涵盖的研究领域工程及结构材料(金属、合金、陶瓷、复合材料)有机软材料(玻璃、胶体、液晶、聚合物)生物启发，生物医学和生物分子材料光学、光子和光电子材料磁性材料电子产品的材料超导材料催化分离材料能源材料纳米材料和工艺计算、模型和材料理论表面和薄膜设计、合成、加工和表征技术除了初步研究，《自然材料》杂志还发表评论文章、观点、新闻和观点、评论、通信、采访和对更广泛的《自然材料》的分析。通过这种方式，该杂志的目标是成为全球材料科学界的声音。《自然材料》为读者和作者提供了高可视性、广泛的读者群、高标准的编辑和制作、严格的同行评审、快速出版、独立于学术团体和其他既得利益。

Nature Materials is a monthly multi-disciplinary journal aimed at bringing together cutting-edge research across the entire spectrum of materials science and engineering. Materials research is a diverse and fast-growing discipline, which has moved from a largely applied, engineering focus to a position where it has an increasing impact on other classical disciplines such as physics, chemistry and biology. Nature Materials covers all applied and fundamental aspects of the synthesis/processing, structure/composition, properties and performance of materials, where "materials" are identified as substances in the condensed states (liquid, solid, colloidal) designed or manipulated for technological ends.Nature Materials provides a forum for the development of a common identity among materials scientists while encouraging researchers to cross established subdisciplinary divides. To achieve this, and strengthen the cohesion of the community, the journal takes an interdisciplinary, integrated and balanced approach to all areas of materials research while fostering the exchange of ideas between scientists involved in the different disciplines. Nature Materials is an invaluable resource for all scientists, in both academia and industry, who are active in the process of discovering and developing materials and materials-related concepts.Nature Materials offers an engaging, informative and accessible product including papers of exceptional significance and quality in a discipline which promises to have great influence on the development of society in years to come.Research areas covered in the journalEngineering and structural materials (metals, alloys, ceramics, composites)Organic and soft materials (glasses, colloids, liquid crystals, polymers)Bio-inspired, biomedical and biomolecular materialsOptical, photonic and optoelectronic materialsMagnetic materialsMaterials for electronicsSuperconducting materialsCatalytic and separation materialsMaterials for energyNanoscale materials and processesComputation, modelling and materials theorySurfaces and thin filmsDesign, synthesis, processing and characterization techniquesIn addition to primary research, Nature Materials also publishes review articles, perspectives, news and views, commentaries, correspondence, interviews and analysis of the broader materials picture. In this way, the journal aims to be the voice of the worldwide materials science community.Nature Materials offers readers and authors high visibility, access to a broad readership, high standards of copy editing and production, rigorous peer review, rapid publication, and independence from academic societies and other vested interests.
