CrystEngComm is the forum for the design and understanding of crystalline materials. We welcome studies on the investigation of molecular behaviour within crystals, the control of nucleation and crystal growth, the engineering of crystal structures, and the construction of crystalline materials with tuneable properties and functions.We publish hypothesis-driven research into…h(huán)ow crystal design affects thermodynamics, phase transitional behaviours, polymorphism, morphology control, solid state reactivity (crystal-crystal solution-crystal, and gas-crystal reactions), optoelectronics, ferroelectric materials, non-linear optics, molecular and bulk magnetism, conductivity and quantum computing, catalysis, absorption and desorption, and mechanical properties.Using Techniques and methods including…Single crystal and powder X-ray, electron, and neutron diffraction, solid-state spectroscopy, spectrometry, and microscopy, modelling and data mining, and empirical, semi-empirical and ab-initio theoretical evaluations.On crystalline and solid-state materials.We particularly welcome work on MOFs, coordination polymers, nanocrystals, host-guest and multi-component molecular materials. We also accept work on peptides and liquid crystals.All papers should involve the use or development of a design or optimisation strategy. Routine structural reports or crystal morphology descriptions, even when combined with an analysis of properties or potential applications, are generally considered to be outside the scope of the journal and are unlikely to be accepted.

晶體工程通訊是設(shè)計(jì)和理解晶體材料的論壇。我們歡迎對(duì)晶體內(nèi)分子行為的研究、成核和晶體生長(zhǎng)的控制、晶體結(jié)構(gòu)的工程以及具有可調(diào)諧特性和功能的晶體材料的結(jié)構(gòu)的研究。我們發(fā)表了假設(shè)驅(qū)動(dòng)的研究…晶體設(shè)計(jì)如何影響熱力學(xué)、相轉(zhuǎn)移行為、多態(tài)性、形態(tài)控制、固態(tài)反應(yīng)活性(晶體-晶體溶液-晶體和氣體-晶體反應(yīng))、光電子學(xué)、鐵電材料、非線性光學(xué)、分子和體磁、電導(dǎo)率和量子計(jì)算、催化、吸收和解吸以及機(jī)械性能。使用技術(shù)和方法，包括…單晶和粉末x射線，電子和中子衍射，固體光譜，光譜和顯微鏡，建模和數(shù)據(jù)挖掘，經(jīng)驗(yàn)，半經(jīng)驗(yàn)和從頭開始理論評(píng)估。晶體和固態(tài)材料。我們特別歡迎在MOF、配位聚合物、納米晶體、主客體和多組分分子材料方面的工作。我們也接受多肽和液晶的研究。所有論文都應(yīng)該涉及設(shè)計(jì)或優(yōu)化策略的使用或開發(fā)。常規(guī)結(jié)構(gòu)報(bào)告或晶體形態(tài)描述，即使與性能分析或潛在應(yīng)用相結(jié)合，通常被認(rèn)為不在期刊的范圍內(nèi)，不太可能被接受。
