Progress in Solid State Chemistry

期刊简介：Progress in Solid State Chemistry presents a chemical view of the solid state by providing up-to-date critical reviews written by acknowledged authorities in the field. It also publishes surveys of research progress and specialized articles devoted to summarizing particular recent developments. The aim is to address the need brought about by the literature on the chemistry of the solid state being widely dispersed, making it difficult to obtain a broad and unified assessment of the present state of knowledge. Special emphasis is given to relating physical properties and structural chemistry. Whereas structural chemistry at one time was concerned mostly with perfect solids, most activity focused upon understanding of solid properties focuses on imperfections. Entities such as vacancies, dislocations, and positive holes, which have no independent existence outside the solid itself, are of prime importance in modern solid state chemistry.

【译文】固态化学进展通过提供由该领域公认权威撰写的最新批判性评论，展示了固态的化学视角。它还发表了关于研究进展的调查和专门文章，致力于总结特定最近的发展。目的是解决固态化学文献广泛分散所带来的需求，使得难以获得对现有知识状态的广泛和统一评估。特别强调将物理性质和结构化学联系起来。而结构化学一度主要关注完美固体，而大多数活动都集中在理解固体性质上，重点是缺陷。如空位、位错和正空穴等实体，它们本身在固体之外没有独立的存在，在现代固态化学中极为重要。
