Journal of Computational Electronics is an academic journal published by Springer. (ISSN 1569-8025, impact factor 2.5).
Aims and scope
The Journal of Computational Electronics brings together research on all aspects of modeling and simulation of modern electronics. This includes optical, electronic, mechanical, and quantum mechanical aspects, as well as research on the underlying mathematical algorithms and computational details. The related areas of energy conversion/storage and of molecular and biological systems, in which the thrust is on the charge transport, electronic, mechanical, and optical properties, are also covered.
In particular, we encourage manuscripts dealing with device simulation; with optical and optoelectronic systems and photonics; with energy storage (e.g. batteries, fuel cells) and harvesting (e.g. photovoltaic), with simulation of circuits, VLSI layout, logic and architecture (based on, for example, CMOS devices, quantum-cellular automata, QBITs, or single-electron transistors); with electromagnetic simulations (such as microwave electronics and components); or with molecular and biological systems. However, in all these cases, the submitted manuscripts should explicitly address the electronic properties of the relevant systems, materials, or devices and/or present novel contributions to the physical models, computational strategies, or numerical algorithms. Specifically, manuscripts that present simulation results obtained using widely available and employed open-source software tools are only appropriate if they show how to augment computational-tool capabilities (i.e., algorithm/code development), if they present significant novel physical properties and applications of the systems studied that are not routinely accessed via such tools, or if multiple open-source or open-source/original codes are combined in a novel multiphysics/multiscale fashion. In addition, manuscripts that present simulation results obtained using commercially available TCAD tools (DFT packages, process, device or circuit simulation software, electromagnetic simulation software, and such) are generally not publishable as standalone theory papers in JCEL; we recommend that these papers be accompanied by experimental results and submitted to broader-scope journals in applied physics or engineering.
