Dear group members,

The much waited by me Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters journal (A "PRL-like" journal for chemists for short letters) is opening their doors for submission on September 21st. I send you this as a news item and reminder in case we have something appropriate to send by then.

Most-accessed letters from the Journal of Physical Chemistry

Editor-in-Chief: George C. Schatz,
Northwestern University
Deputy Editor: Prashant V. Kamat,
University of Notre Dame


The scientific community will soon have a new, timesaving way to view the full range of urgent research results in a convenient, single source: Issue 1 of the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters launches in January 2010. First articles will be published in November 2009.

The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters will have the shortest time from submission to web publication among physical chemistry journals, estimated at 6 to 8 weeks. The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters will begin accepting submissions September 21, 2009.

Go to www.pubs.acs.org/JPCL for more information about this new, all-electronic journal, complementing the Journal of Physical Chemistry, the #1 most-cited in physical chemistry.


The following are the most-accessed letters published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry A, B, and C during the first 6 months of 2009:

Journal of Physical Chemistry is the go–to publication for authors.

Authors choose Journal of Physical Chemistry because they gain important advantages:

Worldwide distribution of research
The journals of the ACS are the most cited in chemistry and the related sciences. With an unparalleled reputation for excellence and broad accessibility by researchers at leading institutions worldwide, Journal of Physical Chemistry has the broad readership you want for your important research findings.

Editors are leading scientists in their respective fields
Unlike journal Editors at some publishers, Journal of Physical Chemistry Editors are active scientists and distinguished leaders in their respective areas of research. That means your submission will be handled by an expert who can give your paper the care and attention it deserves.

No mandatory charges for pages, color illustrations, or cover art
Physical chemistry journals from most other publishers apply author charges that can add up to significant sums. Journal of Physical Chemistry has no mandatory author charges for pages, color illustrations, or cover art.

Rapid publication of your paper to the web
Journal of Physical Chemistry offers faster times for submission to acceptance and to web publication than most competitive journals. With the launch of Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, authors of letters will gain an even faster time to publication — estimated at 6–8 weeks from submission to web publication.


Attend “J Phys Chem Lett Fest” at the ACS Fall National Meeting in Washington, DC

On Sunday, August 16, 2009, at the ACS Publications exhibit booth #1720, from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, celebrate the upcoming launch of the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters with free giveaways, music, and a special presentation. We’ll also be honoring the young scientists selected from nominations to the PHYS Division for a new yearly symposium that highlights "leading research by postdoctoral fellows". The symposium will be held on Tuesday, August 18, in the Convention Center, Room 152 B. Come to the ACS Publications booth Sunday evening for an advance look at the research being presented at these invited-speaker-length-talks.
